DESCRIPTION:Afterlives of an Essay: 100 Years of Benjamin’s Task of the T
 ranslator 29-30 September 2023\, University of Warwick Confirmed keynote
  speakers Dr Chantal Wright Link opens in a new window(Zurich University
  of Applied Sciences) Professor Douglas Robinson (Chinese University of 
 Hong Kong) Professor Duncan Large (BCLT\, University of East Anglia) 202
 3 marks the publication centenary of Walter Benjamin’s seminal essay on 
 translation\, Die Aufgabe des Übersetzers [The Task of the Translator]. 
 Benjamin’s ideas about the relationship between a text and its translati
 on\, and about the inherent ‘translatability’ of some texts\, have been 
 influential across Translation Studies and Comparative Literature\, wher
 e the term ‘afterlife’ is both widely used and much debated in relation 
 to texts and their authors. Discussion of the essay continues\, with rec
 ent responses to Benjamin including Chantal Wright’s translation of Anto
 ine Berman’s The Age of Translation (2018)\, and Douglas Robinson’s Tran
 slation as a Form (2023). Since The Task of the Translator was first pub
 lished\, however\, there have been seismic changes in the theories and f
 rameworks through which we understand translation. Translation Studies h
 as been established as an academic discipline and has expanded far beyon
 d a focus on literary or even verbal texts\; advances in translation tec
 hnology have questioned the philosophical and ethical stakes of the act 
 of translation\; and scholars of both translation and comparative litera
 ture have challenged the very principle of ‘translatability’. There has 
 also been criticism of Benjamin’s essay and its translations\, calling i
 nto question its status as a foundational text for translation theories.
  Responding both to the central position of Benjamin’s essay in the theo
 retical canon and to criticisms and new theoretical directions that enco
 urage us to see it in a new light\, this conference aims to engage criti
 cally with The Task of the Translator in the context of contemporary the
 ories of translation\, philosophy and literature. Rather than enshrining
  the essay on the basis of its longevity\, we aim to create an interdisc
 iplinary space for a reassessment of Benjamin’s ideas and their legacy (
 or afterlife).
