About

The application deadline has been extended until 3 May 2024.

The FUSP – Nida Centre for Advanced Research on Translation invites advanced graduate students to online gatherings with a hybrid format: via virtual access from anywhere in the world, students will participate in an ongoing dialogue with faculty who will gather in person. We welcome you to bring your research and share your questions with our constantly expanding scholarly community!

Building on the legacy of the former Nida School of Translation Studies (NSTS), the centre in Rimini, Italy, run by the Fondazione Unicampus San Pellegrino (FUSP), continues the aim of advancing research on translation through a transdisciplinary approach. We bring together varying perspectives and methodologies, challenging traditional disciplinary boundaries and encouraging original thinking about what translation is, where it takes place, and the role it plays in a complex, globalized, post-pandemic world.

The format of the 2024 summer school offers students and researchers, from all corners of the world, access to meetings online. We will meet in real time, adapting to different time zones through a flexible schedule, providing recordings for those not able to join any given session. In conjunction with our virtual gatherings, we will ensure collaboration through individual and group conversations.

Target group

Applications are open to PhD students and researchers of translation in any discipline.
The application deadline has been extended until 3 May 2024.

Course aim

The title of our summer school – Translation in a Turbulent World II: Translation and/as Collaboration –echoes the ongoing discussion about translation as an active node in the geopolitical and microsocial spheres as the world around us grapples with war, colonization and decolonization, power asymmetries, language asymmetries and emergent technologies and proffered techno-utopias. How can we collaborate productively to address these turbulent times? To what extent are we collaborators in them? Could we consider "translaboration" (Alfer 2017) as a useful paradigm? Is it useful to trouble the ambiguous, temporally and culturally loaded, notion of collaboration to think about translations and translators?
