Email: Gertrude Durusoy (Izmir)

ABSTRACT: This section will deal with the different aspects of translation from the point of view of transmitting the cultural context. Besides the issues which arise through the culturems in the original text, it will be discussed if culture may get lost through translations or not. As a direct consequence, it will be also dealt, using examples, with the possibility or the impossibility of translating poems.
We welcome contributions in the three conference languages but, if necessary, we might include other languages, which is certainly necessary bwhile giving examples.
