Investigations into translations published in preiodicals provide valuable insights into cultural, economic, and political communication across dispersed, nodal, unstable, and fluid geographical spaces. The notoriously challenging task of gathering data on these publications poses methodological issues that many scholars are actively addressing today. This panel aims to examine these challenges and other pertinent issues shaping the current state of the field.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”About” module_id=”aims-and-purpose” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”2px|0px|1px|0px||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”0″ _builder_version=”4.19.0″ custom_margin=”|||” custom_padding=”||24px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”description” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.8em” width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”89%” max_width_phone=”97%” max_width_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_margin=”30px|-395px||||” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”|0px|||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”|75px||||” custom_padding_tablet=”|0px|||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”|0px|||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

ICREA Full Professor, and recipient of a former ERC Starting Grant (until Sept. 2024) and Ram\u00f3n y Cajal fellowship, Diana Roig-Sanz is an expert in global literature and cultural transfer, sociology of translation and the use of digital methods applied to historical objects. She is one of the very few Catalan and Hispanic scholars (in Catalonia, Spain and Latin America) currently combining macro- and micro-historical analysis with KDD (knowledge discovery in databases) and big data approaches.<\/p>\n
Data mining and big data approaches are changing the ways in which we create knowledge, access information and preserve our cultural heritage. Today, one of the greatest challenges for a decentred and non-Eurocentric global cultural history is to engage in larger accounts of cultural processes (both geographically and temporally). Roig-Sanz\u2019s research builds upon these key themes in global studies, and the cutting-edge digital humanities it applies allow her to adopt a new scholarly approach based on the following starting points:<\/p>\n
1) A decentred and empirical approach to global cultural history.<\/p>\n
2) A big data-based turning point in the humanities.<\/p>\n
3) Cross-disciplinary methodology.<\/p>\n
4) Collaborative, open and international science.<\/p>\n
In that respect, she has challenged and revised former scholarly interpretations and developed new original approaches, and has been visiting scholar at the Oxford Internet Institute, the KU Leuven, and the ENS (rue d\u2019Ulm) in Paris. She is also member of the international staff of the Center for Translation Studies Summer School.<\/p>\n

This session aims to explore the role of actors engaged in translational and translatorial actions within cultural periodicals. It aims to focus on such issues as the contribution of translation agents to creating cultural and political resistance, facilitating transnational cultural mediation, and building journals as nodes to establish transnational networks that facilitate \u201ccirculation of texts and publishing models\u201d (F\u00f3lica \u2013 Roig-Sanz \u2013 Caristia 2020, 4). Periodicals containing translations, particularly those with significant curatorial input, have often served as zones of resistance against dominant narratives, with translators and editors playing crucial roles in this process. Through the creation of these heterogeneous platforms, translational agents often introduce alternative perspectives and amplify marginalized voices.<\/p>\n
In this session, we encourage papers that examine such dynamics in periodicals across different regions and historical contexts and contribute to knowledge in the area where translation and translator studies meet studies in periodical cultures in which the issue of translation is still felt as \u201can understudied aspect\u201d (Ernst 2022, 253).

Investigations into translations published in preiodicals provide valuable insights into cultural, economic, and political communication across dispersed, nodal, unstable, and fluid geographical spaces. The notoriously challenging task of gathering data on these publications poses methodological issues that many scholars are actively addressing today. This panel aims to examine these challenges and other pertinent issues shaping the current state of the field.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”About” module_id=”aims-and-purpose” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”2px|0px|1px|0px||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”0″ _builder_version=”4.19.0″ custom_margin=”|||” custom_padding=”||24px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”description” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.8em” width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”89%” max_width_phone=”97%” max_width_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_margin=”30px|-395px||||” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”|0px|||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”|75px||||” custom_padding_tablet=”|0px|||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”|0px|||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

ICREA Full Professor, and recipient of a former ERC Starting Grant (until Sept. 2024) and Ram\u00f3n y Cajal fellowship, Diana Roig-Sanz is an expert in global literature and cultural transfer, sociology of translation and the use of digital methods applied to historical objects. She is one of the very few Catalan and Hispanic scholars (in Catalonia, Spain and Latin America) currently combining macro- and micro-historical analysis with KDD (knowledge discovery in databases) and big data approaches.<\/p>\n
Data mining and big data approaches are changing the ways in which we create knowledge, access information and preserve our cultural heritage. Today, one of the greatest challenges for a decentred and non-Eurocentric global cultural history is to engage in larger accounts of cultural processes (both geographically and temporally). Roig-Sanz\u2019s research builds upon these key themes in global studies, and the cutting-edge digital humanities it applies allow her to adopt a new scholarly approach based on the following starting points:<\/p>\n
1) A decentred and empirical approach to global cultural history.<\/p>\n
2) A big data-based turning point in the humanities.<\/p>\n
3) Cross-disciplinary methodology.<\/p>\n
4) Collaborative, open and international science.<\/p>\n
In that respect, she has challenged and revised former scholarly interpretations and developed new original approaches, and has been visiting scholar at the Oxford Internet Institute, the KU Leuven, and the ENS (rue d\u2019Ulm) in Paris. She is also member of the international staff of the Center for Translation Studies Summer School.<\/p>\n

This session aims to explore the role of actors engaged in translational and translatorial actions within cultural periodicals. It aims to focus on such issues as the contribution of translation agents to creating cultural and political resistance, facilitating transnational cultural mediation, and building journals as nodes to establish transnational networks that facilitate \u201ccirculation of texts and publishing models\u201d (F\u00f3lica \u2013 Roig-Sanz \u2013 Caristia 2020, 4). Periodicals containing translations, particularly those with significant curatorial input, have often served as zones of resistance against dominant narratives, with translators and editors playing crucial roles in this process. Through the creation of these heterogeneous platforms, translational agents often introduce alternative perspectives and amplify marginalized voices.<\/p>\n
In this session, we encourage papers that examine such dynamics in periodicals across different regions and historical contexts and contribute to knowledge in the area where translation and translator studies meet studies in periodical cultures in which the issue of translation is still felt as \u201can understudied aspect\u201d (Ernst 2022, 253).

Investigations into translations published in preiodicals provide valuable insights into cultural, economic, and political communication across dispersed, nodal, unstable, and fluid geographical spaces. The notoriously challenging task of gathering data on these publications poses methodological issues that many scholars are actively addressing today. This panel aims to examine these challenges and other pertinent issues shaping the current state of the field.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”About” module_id=”aims-and-purpose” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”2px|0px|1px|0px||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”0″ _builder_version=”4.19.0″ custom_margin=”|||” custom_padding=”||24px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”description” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.8em” width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”89%” max_width_phone=”97%” max_width_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_margin=”30px|-395px||||” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”|0px|||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”|75px||||” custom_padding_tablet=”|0px|||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”|0px|||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

It aims to focus on such issues as the contribution of translation agents to creating cultural and political resistance, facilitating transnational cultural mediation, and building journals as nodes to establish transnational networks that facilitate \u201ccirculation of texts and publishing models\u201d (F\u00f3lica \u2013 Roig-Sanz \u2013 Caristia 2020, 4). Periodicals containing translations, particularly those with significant curatorial input, have often served as zones of resistance against dominant narratives, with translators and editors playing crucial roles in this process. Through the creation of these heterogeneous platforms, translational agents often introduce alternative perspectives and amplify marginalized voices.<\/p>\n In this session, we encourage papers that examine such dynamics in periodicals across different regions and historical contexts and contribute to knowledge in the area where translation and translator studies meet studies in periodical cultures in which the issue of translation is still felt as \u201can understudied aspect\u201d (Ernst 2022, 253). We encourage contributions that adopt interdisciplinary approaches which draw on translation studies, periodical studies, cultural studies, sociology, political science, digital humanities, and other fields.<\/p>\n The session wishes to address questions including, but not limited to:<\/p>\nSpecial Session: Translators in Periodicals as Society-Shaping Agents<\/span><\/h2>\n
