CALL FOR PAPERS

MonTI  6 (2014)

Translation and Lexicography - Traducción y lexicografía

Editors: Cesáreo Calvo Rigual (Universitat de València) and Maria Vittoria 
Calvi (Università degli Studi di Milano)

Deadline: June 30, 2013.

Translators find in dictionaries one of their most faithful and necessary 
allies, both for the decodification of the source language and for the 
codification of the target language. Among many other tools, translators use 
monolingual and bilingual dictionaries, lexicographical and encyclopedic 
dictionaries.

The relationship between lexicography and translation covers a wide range of 
topics, which are narrowed down in this call for papers mainly to certain 
categories (see below). The papers submitted can focus, for instance, on 
comparing the end results and the techniques of both disciplines in view of 
establishing similarities and differences regarding the concept of equivalence. 
The volume also welcomes papers focusing on the use of any type of dictionary, 
with special emphasis on the usefulness of current dictionaries for 
translators, as well as on the traits that should be part of an ideal 
dictionary for the professional translator  , and lastbut not least, the 
essential part the dictionary plays in the translation training process.

Among the more theoretical issues, the essential notion of equivalence is 
suggested, since, despite the fact that this is an element common to both 
translation and dictionaries, there are crucial differences, such as the fact 
that in translation equivalence is negotiated between texts, while in the case 
of dictionaries, it involves smaller units, such as the word or the phrase.

This volume welcomes papers on the relationship between Translation and 
Lexicography from a variety of perspectives, among which:

- Translation and monolingual/bilingual dictionaries.
- Translation and other types of dictionaries: encyclopedias, thesaurus, etc.
- E-dictionaries and translation.
- Dictionaries in different types of translation (legal, technical, etc.)
- The concept of equivalence in translation and lexicography.
- The dictionary in translation teaching.
- General and specific dictionaries for translators.
- The use of parallel text corpora in the compilation of bilingual dictionaries.

Main deadlines:
Complete articles should be sent before June 30th, 2013 to MonTI 
(monti.secretaria@xxxxx), in English, French, Spanish, Catalan, Italian or 
German. Title and abstract of no more than 150 words should be included in 
English and in one more of the official languages of the journal. By September 
2013, the journal will inform the authors about the results of the assessments.
