Studies in Culture, and Translation & Interpreting Research Joint Seminars

Studies in Culture

Through the scholarly analysis of many different kinds of cultural products, texts and phenomena, Studies in Culture brings together researchers who seek to understand how the world is understood differently by people coming from different cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Researchers in this cluster work on literature, film, music, theatre, the visual arts, intangible heritage, testimonies and historical narratives.

Research in Studies in Culture within the School centres around four broad sub-themes of Heritage, memory and trauma studies; Intellectual and cultural history; Literature; and Film and visual cultures.

Translation & Interpreting

Translation and Interpreting (T&I) is a rapidly developing multidisciplinary area of research. The school’s translation and interpreting research activities cover two main streams: applied research relating to translation and interpreting practice, pedagogy and the T&I industry, and theoretical approaches to translation in the areas of literature, cultural studies and philosophy.
