With the situation being so changeable at the moment, I thought it might be useful to collect together a list of conferences of interest to readers of this blog, with the current messages on their status/dates.
Please feel free to write in with any more information you would like to share. I will also add conferences and updates to this post as I become aware of them.
Whatever it’s called in your country: “lockdown” (a military flavour), “confinement” (a prison flavour), or something else, many of us may find ourselves with more time to read than usual. So here’s a list of ideas – and do send in more so that we can make a Part 2 to this post!
Welcome back to WordstoDeeds! I’m so happy to be “with you” all again!
Only one word for it…

And now let’s get back to our regular Monday smiles… 😊 😊 😊
Dear Readers,
After an extended absence to focus on an exciting project and a long rest, this blog will restart its usual frequency of two to three posts a week as from 1 February 2021 – just to give me time to do some technical tweaks behind the scenes.
I do hope you are all coping with the current health and economic crisis, and despite it all wish you a Very Happy New Year.
Thank you so much for your patience and your support. I really look forward to continuing this journey with you all!
With best wishes

Half a billion people in emerging countries have no access to reading glasses. Countless million Americans go to the countries where glasses are needed. What if each traveler brought a pair of readers with them and gave them to the first person they saw that needed them? What if that person was YOU?
Hello dear readers,
My apologies for recent silence which has been due to ill health. The blog will be taking a summer rest, resuming normal service in mid-September.
Wishing you all a great August.

Here is a little smile in the meantime…
Last week saw plenty of sporting action, but in Florence, something slightly ‘different’ was happening…
The heatwave in the UK is causing quite a bit of unexpected havoc…
A special issue of the International Journal of Language & Law (JLL) has just been published (volume 7, 2018), on the subject of EU legal culture and translation, guest edited by Vilelmini Sosoni and Lucja Biel.
JLL is an open-access, double-blind, peer-reviewed e-journal which offers a forum for research on the interdependence of language and law in all of its facets, from theoretical approaches to practical problems. The journal is entirely free of charge to authors and readers, and publishes content under a CC-BY license.
