Cuba, sede del XXII Congreso Mundial de la FIT, 2020

FIT Statutory Congress and World Congress to take place as planned in Varadero, Cuba, on 30–31 May and 1–3 June 2022

FIT Council has decided that the FIT Statutory Congress and the FIT World Congress in Varadero, Cuba, on 30–31 May and 1–3 June 2022, respectively, will go ahead as planned.

This decision was taken at a FIT Council meeting. It is our hope that many of our member associations will be represented at the Statutory Congress and that many translators, terminologists and interpreters worldwide will travel to Cuba to discuss and collaborate on solutions to the global challenges facing the profession at the FIT World Congress.

While we realise that not every member association will be able to send delegates to the Statutory Congress on 30–31 May this year, whether this be due to COVID-19, travel restrictions, financial circumstances or other reasons, we do hope you will try to attend.

Should you be unable to attend the Statutory Congress in person, however, we would urge you to register your proxy vote with another FIT member association. If you require help in finding another organisation that will be travelling to Cuba, please contact me directly at president@fit-ift.org and I will help you find an association with whom you can liaise. Please note that registration to Statutory Congress and submission of proxies will open on 30 March. All relevant information will be provided at that time.

We also hope you will take time to join us for the first ever FIT World Congress (1–3 June) in Latin America, to debate and discuss around the broad theme of A World without Barriers: The Role of Language Professionals in Building Culture, Understanding and Lasting Peace.

The International Federation of Translators (FIT) and the Congress hosting organisation, Asociación Cubana de Traductores e Intérpretes (ACTI), welcome you to the XXII FIT World Congress 2022, in Varadero, Cuba.

For further information, please visit varadero.fit-ift.org. Please note that hotel booking will start soon when new reduced rates have been negotiated.

Scope - English
The work of language professionals can often be undervalued and unseen, even though their contribution makes it possible for us to enjoy the benefits of scientific and technological progress, facilitates vital aid inconflicts and disasters, and opens doors on new cultures.

By removing linguistic and cultural barriers, they foster equality of access, interlingual and intercultural dialogue. Translation, interpreting and terminology, underpin the human rights and fundamental freedoms, crucial to sustainable development, inclusive governance, peace and social equity. They are vital for creating sustainable and desirable futures.

The pivotal role that professional practitioners play in securing understanding among nations, ensuring cultural diversity and protecting human rights needs to be highlighted. Read more here.

La Temática El trabajo de los profesionales de lengua es a menudo subestimado e invisible, aunque su contribución hace posible para nosotros disfrutar los beneficios del progreso científico y tecnológico, facilita la ayuda esencial en los conflictos y los desastres, y abre puertas a nuevas culturas.

Al eliminar las barreras lingüísticas y culturales, se fomenta la igualdad de acceso, el diálogo interlingual e intercultural. La traducción, la interpretación y la terminología respaldan los derechos humanos y las libertades fundamentales que son cruciales para el desarrollo sostenible, la gobernanza inclusiva, la paz y la equidad social. Son vitales para crear futuros sostenibles y deseables.

Debe destacarse la importancia del quehacer de los practicantes profesionales para garantizar la comprensión entre las naciones, la diversidad cultural y proteger los derechos humanos. Leer más aquí.

Ernest Hemingway - escritor norteamericano

Ernest Hemingway endte også i FBI’s søgelys

James Baldwin fylder sammen med Ernest Hemingway mest i Writers Under Surveillance. Hele 50 sider får de hver, men i modsætning til Baldwin blev Hemingway mildt sagt ikke taget alvorligt af FBI.

Den berømte machoforfatter fangede først sikkerhedstjenestens interesse, da han ved et arrangement på den cubanske ambassade i 1942 kaldte FBI’s juridiske attaché et »medlem af Gestapo«. Men det var vist ment for sjov, ifølge USA’s ambassadør, der i september 1942 hyrede sin ven Hemingway til at indsamle efterretninger om eventuelle krigsaktiviteter på og omkring Cuba.

Ernest Hemmingway boede på Cuba og samlede i FBI’s tjeneste et netværk af meddelere bestående af »bartendere, tjenere og lignende«, men FBI nærede ingen tillid til hans efterretninger. Hoovers kontakt på Cuba understregede igen og igen, at han betragtede Hemingway som en ’phony’, en løgnhals, hvis efterretninger var helt igennem ubrugelige.

Forfatteren, der boede på øen og kunne tale et tåleligt spansk, fik et budget på 500 dollar om måneden og samlede et netværk af meddelere bestående af »bartendere, tjenere og lignende« på de hotelbarer og beværtninger, han i forvejen frekventerede fast.

Under dække af at foretage »videnskabelige undersøgelser omhandlende vandringen af Marlin på vegne af Museum of Natural History, New York City« holdt Hemingway desuden øje med fjendtlig aktivitet i vandet omkring Cuba.

Den 9. december 1942 bevidnede Hemingway tilsyneladende kontakt mellem en ubåd og det spanske skib SS Marques de Comillas. FBI’ iværksatte straks en undersøgelse og talte blandt andet med skibets mere end 90 besætningsmedlemmer og gæster. Ingen af dem havde imidlertid set så meget som skyggen af en ubåd.

»Det negative resultat af denne afhøring blev rapporteret«, som det udtrykkes i et 10 siders langt memorandum, hvori det berettes, at Hemingway derefter tog til genmæle i endnu en rapport.

Heri understregede forfatteren, at »det ville være en tragedie, hvis ubåden medbragte sabotører« med kurs mod USA’s kyst. Andetsteds i FBI-memoet berettes det, at Hemingway havde mistanke om, at 30.000 tyske soldater var på vej mod Cuba i ubåde for at indtage øen.

Hoovers kontakt på Cuba understregede igen og igen, at han betragtede Hemingway som en phony, en løgnhals, hvis efterretninger var helt igennem ubrugelige og utroværdige. Til både Hemingways og den amerikanske ambassadørs frustration brød FBI samarbejdet med forfatteren i april 1943.
