Universität Hildesheim (Bühler Campus), Hildesheim, 31.10.–2.11.2014

Up to the present day translation studies have paid little attention to
Comics. There are many possible reasons for this. Research within the
discipline has for a long time almost exclusively focused on verbal texts.
On one hand, since the 1990s it had devoted more attention to audio-visual
texts, but a clear emphasis has been with those inter- and intra-lingual
forms of translation which are required by films. On the other hand it is
much harder to differentiate comics clearly from other text types,
regardless of whether comics are seen as a genre, a distinct communication
medium or as a hybrid collection of signs.… [ Va' avanti ]

International Conference
Indo-Hispanic Dialogue: Bridging the Cultural Gap

School of Humanities, University of Hyderabad, India

Hispanic Countries, particularly from the region of Latin America, have
begun to occupy the attention they deserve in India’s official and private
sector perception as against the traditional biases built up over the years
for historical, geographic or commercial reasons. It is fact that the
investments of the Indian companies in the South American market have
increased drastically in recent times. For the growing bilateral and
multilateral relations with these countries to have an enduring effect there
is need for an academic engagement with the whole domain of mutual cultural
understanding of the societies involved.… [ Va' avanti ]
