在地對「第二文化」的轉譯與教學之挑戰 國際學術研討會
2023-05-31
日期：2023年11月4日(六)
時間：上午8時30分至下午5時40分
地點：行政大樓7樓第1、2、5會議室
簡介／
國立政治大學外國語文學院及翻譯與跨文化中心為充實研究能量，今年籌劃舉辦一場以「在地對『第二文化』的轉譯與教學之挑戰」（The Challenges of Interpreting and Teaching “the Second Culture” in Local Contexts）為主題之學術研討會，擬於112年11月4日（星期六）假本校行政大樓7樓會議室舉行。
此研討會與本院高教深耕計畫「用外語說臺灣文化」有很大的淵源。本院為培養多國語言人才之重鎮，每年赴海外交換、留學之學生人數眾多，為了協助國人及學生以外語向外國人推廣臺灣之美，本院集結院內21位專兼任教師編著及審訂《用外語說臺灣文化》系列專書，以九個語種（英語、法語、德語、西班牙語、俄語、日語、韓語、阿拉伯語、土耳其語）介紹臺灣。
此研討會便以此為出發點，期盼與國內外外語專業之專家學者進行交流，分享彼此如何將外國及本國文化導入外語教學，以及相關專業學術領域，如語言學、文學、翻譯、文化研究等，進而提升研究及教學水準。

2023年國立政治大學外國語文學院
「在地對『第二文化』的轉譯與教學之挑戰」學術研討會
徵求論文
宗旨：處理一門外語取決於對社會價值的掌握，文字可以負責，但也取決於對適當的句法和話語組織形式的選擇。
這些資訊是根據語言的潛力所構建的，但在不同程度上僵化的序列，或多或少儀式化的言語事實也告訴我們產生它們、傳達它們、譴責或壓制它們的社會文化先驗。
如文本和手勢模式，在不同的文化中是不同的。在一種語言中可以說的東西，在另一種語言中可能會變得令人不安。某語種的修辭、成語、陳詞濫調、幽默，對我來說是顯而易見的，而對其他人來說卻不是。
學習一門語言，是對不可或缺的語言要素（發音、詞彙、語法、語用學…）的總和，是對自己文化之外的外國現實的感知構建，需要一個比語言學更大的觀察領域。
觀察和理解日常現實、習慣和態度，意味著語言課程被視為一扇開放的大門，其空間比語法和詞典中描述的語言要大得多。
所有由個人完成的行為都帶有屬於一個社群的痕跡。行為方式和自我表達方式構成了身份的重要組成部分，並有助於產生和接受母語和外語的意義。
因此，文化不是一門獨立的學科，它是所有級別的語言教學之本。教師要把語言和文化結合起來進行研究，而不是簡單地把它們並列起來。
對外國文化的學習不能被引導到語言之外，而是要準確地引導到傳達它的語言之中。文化內容不是自主的，沒有承載它們的語言，似乎很難傳達它們。
學習者對映在本國和外國語言中的文化知識的實現如下：
a) 有利於第二外語的學習和對外國文化現實的發現，但並不影響其自身的語言根本；
b) 允許通過新的語言表達自己的文化，並能用這種語言交流自己的獨特性和差異性；
c) 允許一個人在與外國人的交流中，表達自己的現實和新的現實（與目標文化、當地世界和全球化世界相聯繫）；
d) 有助於減少不理解的幅度，消除一個人在「外語」面前可能體驗到的「外來性」。
如果把他放在需要觀察、評估和類比目標文化社群成員的行為之下，非母語學習者在社會互動過程中不會完全複製真實的情況。
一個人可以學會行動和反應，談判和掌握各種情況的組合，但學習者「希望表達」的結果不見得等於他「能夠表達」。
另一方面，他可以獲得確實的解釋能力，也就是在語言交流中識別文化的能力。一旦學習者自主「上場」並沉浸在日常生活中，一旦他成為一個面臨交流和生存需要的語言使用者，文化翻譯的能力就會被要求幫助他對文化義務作出適當的回應。
外語學習中的翻譯是一種技能，它可以使目的語言者面對現實和來源社群的集體經驗同時變得可理解。
與此同時，文化翻譯的在地化可以重新認識臺灣這片土地，較過去更加容易關注周遭現象，仔細觀察臺灣在地各種人事時地物、思考。以往有許多像母語，即不需要特別思考就能夠做到的事，我們不會去在意的東西，使得觀察力更加細微，留心於比較今昔的不同。
再者，透過與翻譯對比找出臺灣的本土特色，許多我們認為理所當然的事情或日常生活習以為常的細節，透過與翻譯對比恍然發現其實臺灣的當然不等於外國的當然。不但突顯出臺灣的本土價值，也能夠在往後的教學現場上教導學生哪些是我們既有的文化、我們的價值觀為何，進而懂得培養包容異國文化。
因此，國立政治大學外國語文學院翻譯與跨文化研究中心認為應就「第二文化」這個議題做更深入的探討，決定舉辦學術研討會，針對以下七大主軸進行討論：
1. 臺灣文化的外譯
2. 多元文化的教學
3. 多語教育與雙語政策
4. 翻譯教學現場的問題
5. 機器翻譯的研究與展望
6. 語言與文化認同
7. 新住民的語言教育政策

2023 The Challenges of
Interpreting and Teaching
"the Second Culture" in Local Contexts
Call for Papers
Purpose: Handling a foreign language resides in the mastery of social values which the words can take charge of, but also in the selection of forms of an appropriate syntactic and discursive organization.
The messages are constructed with respect to the potentialities of language, but frozen sequences to varying degrees, more or less ritualized speech facts also inform us on the cultural a priori of the societies that generate them, convey them, censure or repress them.
The norms governing the subjects, such as the textual and gestural schemas vary from one culture to another. What can be said in one language can become troubling in another language. My rhetorics, my idiomaticity, my stereotypes, my humor are obvious for me while they are not for others...
Learning of a language is the sum of indispensable linguistic elements (pronunciation, lexicon, grammar, pragmatics …), structuring the perception of foreign realities in addition to one’s own culture, requires a field of observation which is larger than that of linguistics.
Observing and comprehending daily realities, habits and attitudes implicates that the language course be conceived as an open door on a space much vaster than the one language as it is described in the grammars and dictionaries.
All acts that are accomplished by the individual bear the trace of its belonging to a community. Way of behaving, of expressing oneself constitute an essential part of identity and contribute to the production and the reception of meaning in both native and foreign language.
Culture is therefore not a separate discipline. It is the permanent backdrop of any language teaching program at all levels. The teacher conducts the study of language and culture conjointly, without settling for simply juxtaposing them.
The learning of a foreign culture must not be led outside the language but rather, be led precisely into the language that conveys it. The cultural contents are not autonomous, and it seems difficult to convey them without the language that carries them.
The realization by the learner of cultural knowledge
inscribed in languages native and foreign:
a) favors L2 acquisition and the discovery of foreign cultural realities,
without, however, disarticulating its own linguistic capital;
b) allows the expression of one’s own culture through the new language, and
enables the communication in this language of one’s singularity and difference
(“saying who one is”);
c) allows one to express oneself on one’s own realities and new realities (as
connected to the target culture, the local world and the globalized world) in
his exchanges with foreigners;
d) contributes to reducing the margin of incomprehension and erasing the
“foreignness” that one may experience before a “foreign language” (that one may
experience as a world that he is excluded from).
If placed in situations where he needs to observe, evaluate and simulate the conduct of members of the targeted cultural community, the non-native learner will not reproduce entirely the authentic in the course of social interactions.
One can learn to act and to react, to negotiate and to master an ensemble of various situations, but the learner’s act of “vouloir dire” (= wishing to express) will never be equal to his act of “pouvoir dire” (= being able to express).
On the other hand, he can acquire interpretation fluency of the authentic, that is, a capacity to identify the cultural in language exchanges. Competence in cultural interpretation is called upon to help the learner, once he is autonomous “on the field” and immersed in daily life, once he has become a language user confronting communication and survival needs, so as to appropriately respond to cultural obligations.
Interpreting in foreign language learning is a skill allowing to render intelligible at once the ordinary reality of target speakers, and the collective experience of the source community.
At the same time, the localization of cultural translation can help us take a look at our land, Taiwan, again. It also makes us easier to pay more attention to the surrounding phenomena than we were in the past and carefully observe the variety of people, places, and things in Taiwan. In the past, there were many things that we did not pay much attention to, such as one’s mother tongue, i.e., activities that could be done without a second thought, making us more observant and attentive to the differences between the present and the past.
Furthermore, by comparing to translations, we could discover the local characteristics of Taiwan. Many things we find natural, or details that we are used to in our daily lives, can be shown through translation comparison, hitting us fast and hard that these are not natural in foreign countries. Not only does it highlight Taiwan's local values, but it also teaches students what our culture is and what our values are at teaching sites, thus cultivating their tolerance for foreign cultures.
Consequently, Center for Translation and Cross-cultural Studies, College of Foreign Languages and Literature, National Chengchi University believes that the issue of "second culture" should be explored in greater depth and has decided to hold a conference to discuss the following seven main topics.
1. Foreign Translation of Taiwanese Culture
2. Multicultural Teaching
3. Multilingual Education and Bilingual Policy
4. Issues from Translate Teaching Fields
