It explores the (un)translatability of the concepts of world literature\/\u2019world-literature in French\u2019\/Weltliteratur, understanding these as a series of interlinked terms that have emerged multiply, in a range of different historical, cultural and linguistic contexts. The presentation seeks to outline the complex translation dynamics of a genuinely polyglossic \u2018world\u2019 literature, with this &#8216;world&#8217; increasingly characterized by translingualism, multilingualism \u2013 as well as by a more general recognition of a \u2018post-monolingual\u2019 condition. As such, it raises questions about the credibility and sustainability of any exclusively monolingual \u2018world-literature\u2019, and investigates the ways in which the \u2018world\u2019 in \u2018world-literature\u2019 often remains a fundamentally divided one.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Thursday, 10 March 2016<br \/>\n18.30<br \/>\nGrande Salle, <a href=\"http:\/\/globalcenters.columbia.edu\/paris\/\">Reid Hall<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Free and open to the public<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Please confirm your presence by writing to<br \/>\nparis@kent.ac.uk<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University of Kent, Paris In conjunction with its partner institutions Cordially invites students and guests to its Spring Seminar Series Charles Forsdick James Barrow Professor of French University of Liverpool Locating world literature: monolinguals, multilingualism, translation The talk opens with a focus on the manifesto, published in Le Monde in March 2007, advocating a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":40372,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[112],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/paris-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/paris-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/paris-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/paris-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/40372"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/paris-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=385"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/paris-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":405,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/paris-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385\/revisions\/405"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/paris-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=385"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/paris-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=385"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/paris-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=385"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
