The James Joyce Centre was delighted to welcome Dr. Teresa Caneda Cabrera, during her sabbatical as a visiting associate professor at UCD School of English, Drama and Film, for the April instalment in the Spring / Summer 2019 Lecture series. Dr. Caneda Cabrera's talk focused on the relevance of the 1964 Cuban translation of Joyce’s novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man in the years following the 1959 Cuban revolution.
NETEC PI, Teresa Caneda Cabrera, was a guest speaker in the SEMINAR SERIES of the CENTRE for TRANSLATION AND INTERPRETING at QUEEN'S UNIVERSITY BELFAST on February 25 with the lecture TRANSLATION AND "WORLD LITERATURE". The lecture placed translation at the center of the approaches to the study of the modes of circulation and reading of (world) literature and argued that since literary translators become agents who often activate complex discourses of historical/cultura/political affiliation they necessarily produce different versions and interpretations through which ‘universal’ literary texts and authors exist in a fluid space of global connectedness where confluences arise and yet, simultaneously, meaningful asymmetries are revealed.

On September 21 the Research Project inTRUTHS held the INTERNATIONAL SEMINAR “Speaking the Unspeakable: Approaches to Silence in Contemporary Ireland” with the participation of all Project members and collaborators. This was the programme:
The presentations were followed by lively discussions in which the INTRUTHS Project members looked at the interrelations, similarities and dissimilarities of what they identified as the overwhelming presence of cultural practices of silence in the contemporary literary production of Irish fiction writers.
The inTRUTHS Research Project was represented at IASIL 2018 with the participation of three of its members who delivered papers on alternative reimaginations of "inconvenient truths" and untold experiences by contemporary Irish fiction writers in which they discussed issues of silence in relation to sexuality, family and history.
