We would welcome contributions that focus on the following issues:     * the role of the translator and whether it differs from that of an adapter     * the metaphorical meanings of both terms: translation as transformation or transfer, adaptation as psychological adjustment to a particular context.     * translation and adaptation as politically loaded terms     * the semiotic systems underlying translation and adaptation     * 'openness' versus 'restriction' - do translations differ from adaptations in the way they approach either the source or the target text?     * social constructions: the translator as mediator between two languages and two cultures; the adapter as mediator between media and cultures;     * the role of the imagination and/or the emotions in the act of translation or adaptation     * the role of the academy and/or recent scholarship in shaping attitudes towards both disciplines Contributions, in the form of short (150-250 word) proposals, should be sent to the joint editors, Laurence Raw (l_rawjalaurence@yahoo.com) and Joanne Collie (mail@jmacollie.co.uk) by 31 December 2009.6.Congreso Internacional: "Interpreting...
