The Mercurian: A Theatrical Translation Review The Mercurian is named for Mercury who, if he had known it, was/is the patron god of theatrical translators, those intrepid souls possessed of eloquence, feats of skill, messengers not between the gods but between cultures, traders in images, nimble and dexterous linguistic thieves. Like the metal mercury, theatrical translators are capable of absorbing other metals, forming amalgams. As in ancient chemistry, the mercurian is one of the five elementary “principles” of which all material substances are compounded, otherwise known as “spirit”. The theatrical translator is sprightly, lively, potentially volatile, sometimes inconstant, witty, an ideal guide or conductor on the road. The Mercurian is, in part, an attempt to replace the now defunct Modern International Drama by publishing translations of plays and performance pieces. More importantly, The Mercurian welcomes theoretical pieces about theatrical translation; rants, manifestos, and position papers pertaining to translation for the theatre; as well as production histories of theatrical translations. The first The Mercurian will be launched initially in a kind of newsletter format. It will be sent out electronically as a .pdf to all who “subscribe”, and we will see where it takes us, which may be a print journal further on down the road. Contact: Submissions to the first issue should be sent to Adam Versenyi (anversen@email.unc.edu), or by snail mail: Deadline: February 28, 2007. Note: The first issue is due to appear shortly after the deadline in the new year. For translations of plays or performance pieces, unless the material is in the public domain, please send proof of permission to translate from the playwright or original creator of the piece. | |

Translation Studies, a new international peer-reviewed journal First issue: January 2008 Editors: Kate Sturge and Michaela Wolf This journal aims to extend the areas of interest, methodologies and conceptual frameworks inside the discipline of Translation Studies, while testing the traditional boundaries of the notion of ‘translation’ and offering a forum for debate focusing on historical, social, institutional and cultural issues that are strongly rooted in the text level, but also go far beyond it. In addition to scholars within Translation Studies, the journal invites those as yet unfamiliar with or wary of Translation Studies to enter the discussion. Such scholars will include people working in literary theory, sociology, ethnography, philosophy, semiotics, history and historiography, gender studies, postcolonialism, and related fields. Contributions: approximately 5-8,000 words, in English, by email. Detailed style guidelines will be available shortly via the Routledge journals website. Contacts: Michaela Wolf (michaela.wolf@uni-graz.at); Kate Sturge (k.sturge@aston.ac.uk) | |
