Poster for the event

Join Us For A Dialogue with Mary Gallagher

Surviving in Translation: Why the Translingual Arts and Humanities Really Matter Now. A Dialogue with Mary Gallagher”

The dialogue will address the place of translation and translingualism more broadly in one scholar’s łŮ°ů˛ą±ą±đ°ů˛őĂ©±đ of the twentieth- and twenty-first-century university. It will take a personal, positional approach to that story of living, working and ‘surviving’ a whole lifetime in translation and to the reasons why translingualism matters so much for the present and future health of the Arts and Humanities and the polities that they feed. Rather than a formal talk, this session will take the form of a dialogue, and attendees will be encouraged to engage by sharing  their own reflections and questions as they pertain to the future of the Arts and Humanities, and languages,  translation, translingualism. 

The dialogue will be in English, but interventions in French also welcome. 

Thursday, March 19, from 3-4:30, in the ICSLAC seminar room. 

Registration is not required, but please let Catherine know if you are planning on attending by sending an email: Catherine.Khordoc@carleton.ca

Mary Gallagher has spent over forty years working in French and Francophone Studies in Ireland, researching Francophone writing associated particularly with the Caribbean, but also with Tunisia, the Indian Ocean, Canada, Ireland and Japan. She is currently working on three questions: the responses of Irish writers to the Congo rubber genocide of the early twentieth century; the translation and other work of legal scholar Paul LĂ©on, friend and collaborator of James Joyce and Samuel Beckett ; and the transcultural, transoceanic work of migrant writer Lafcadio Hearn. 

Mary has written and/or edited numerous books, chapters and journal articles. Among them are the following: 

Re-thinking Ressentiment : on the Limits of Criticism and the Limits of its Critics (2016)

*Academic Armageddon: an Irish Requiem for Higher Education (2012)

*La Migrance Ă  l’œuvre : repĂ©rages esthĂ©tiques, Ă©thiques et politiques (2011)

*Empire and Culture Now: Francophone Perspectives on Globalization, Modern and Contemporary France, special issue (November 2009)

*World Writing: Poetics, Ethics, Globalization (2008)

*Ici-LĂ : Place and Displacement in Contemporary Caribbean Writing in French (2003)

*Soundings in French Caribbean Writing Since 1950. The Shock of Space and Time (2002)

*La Créolité de Saint-John Perse, 1998 (Prefaced by Édouard Glisant)
