Book Description
Selected papers from the Third Language International Conference on Translator and Interpreter Training. Capping the series of conferences on this theme in Denmark, the present volume brings together a choice selection of the papers read by scholars and teachers from five continents and within all specialities in Translation Studies. In combination with the two previous volumes of the same title, the book offers an up-to-date, comprehensive, representative overview focusing on main issues in teaching in the relatively new field of translation. There are informed and incisive discussions of subtitling, interpreting and translation, spanning from its historical beginnings to presentations of machine translation and predictions of the future of translation work. Contributions ranging from discussions on the interplay between theory and teaching, teaching literary translation, introducing students to central issues in translation practice, and historical and social issues in teaching translation.
Translating Women
Author: Luise von Flotow
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1317229878
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
This book focuses on women and translation in cultures 'across other horizons' well beyond the European or Anglo-American centres. Drawing on transnational feminist connections, its editors have assembled work from four continents and included articles from Morocco, Mexico, Sri Lanka, Turkey, China, Saudi Arabia, Columbia and beyond. Thirteen different chapters explore questions around women's roles in translation: as authors, or translators, or theoreticians. In doing so, they open new territories for studies in the area of 'gender and translation' and stimulate academic work on questions in this field around the world. The articles examine the impact of 'Western' feminism when translated to other cultures; they describe translation projects devised to import and make meaningful feminist texts from other places; they engage with the politics of publishing translations by women authors in other cultures, and the role of women translators play in developing new ideas. The diverse approaches to questions around women and translation developed in this collection speak to the volume of unexplored material that has yet to be addressed in this field.

Translation Flows
Author: Ilse Feinauer
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027249407
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
The genesis of this book was the 9th Congress of the European Society for Translation Studies, held in Stellenbosch, South Africa, in September 2019 – the first time the event took place outside Europe. “Living Translation – People, Processes, Products” was the Congress theme. A common thread, whether as a methodological or analytical basis, as a descriptive framework or as a subject in itself, was that of “flows” and the “flowing” nature of translation. The contributions included here draw on a productive framework of networks and flows, and foreground the inherent spatial and temporal diversity of Translation Studies. Translation as a social practice is the golden thread throughout the volume – not just “translation” in the conventional sense, between languages and cultures, but over artificial borders, into new spaces, between non-traditional agents and actors, and through various genres and mediums. Chapters are clustered loosely based on the temporality of the topic under discussion. Work on and from the Global North constitutes the first section, and the second complements this by bringing the Global South into the picture as well. This state-of-the-art research will stimulate robust scholarly discussions as we map our way forward as a living discipline.

Translation and Literary Studies
Author: Marella Feltrin-Morris
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317641051
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
By nature a transdisciplinary area of inquiry, translation lends itself to being investigated at its intersection with other fields of study. Translation and Literary Studies seeks to highlight the manifold connections between translation and notions of gender, dialectics, agency, philosophy and power. The volume also offers a timely homage to renowned translation theorist Marilyn Gaddis Rose, who was at the forefront of the group of scholars who initiated and helped to institutionalize translation studies. Inspired by Gaddis Rose’s work, and particularly by her concept of stereoscopic reading, the volume is dynamically complementary to the burgeoning contemporary field of global comparative literature, underscoring the diversity of critical literary thought and theory worldwide. Arranged thematically around questions of translation as literary and cultural criticism, as epistemology, and as poetics and politics, and dealing with works within and beyond the Western tradition, the essays in the volume illustrate the multi-voiced spectrum of literary translation studies today.

Translating Law
Author: Deborah Cao
Publisher: Multilingual Matters
ISBN: 184769537X
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
The translation of law has played an integral part in the interaction among nations in history and is playing a greater role in our increasingly interconnected world today. The book investigates legal translation in its many facets as an intellectual pursuit and a profession. It examines legal translation from an interdisciplinary perspective, covering theoretical and practical grounds and linguistic as well as legal issues. It analyses legal translation competence and various types of legal texts including contracts, statutes and multilateral legal instruments, presents a comparative analysis of the Common Law and the Civil Law and examines the case law from Canada, Hong Kong and the European Court of Justice. It attempts to demonstrate that translating law is a complex act that can enrich law, culture and human experience as a whole.

Investigating Translation
Author: Allison Beeby Lonsdale
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9789027216373
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
This volume brings together a selection of papers presented at an international conference on Translation Studies in Barcelona in 1998. The papers illustrate four areas that are of particular interest in translation research today in Europe, Asia and Latin America. The purpose of the first section, 'Investigating Translation Paradigms', is to reach a critical revision of existing paradigms and to develop new ones in approaching the translated text. The second section, 'Investigating the Translation Process', focuses on the skills, knowledge and strategies that make up translation competence. The third section, 'Investigating Translation and Ideology' addresses not only the 'invisible' influence of ideologies on the translator, but also the role of translators in transmitting ideology. The fourth section, 'Investigating Translation Receivers' envisages translators as communicators caught between the opposing trends of localisation and globalisation. This tension can be seen in the selection of the papers, some of which reflect on research carried out in recently established translation centres in Spain, while others discuss the latest work of scholars from long established centres in other countries.

A STUDY OF THE TRANSLATOR
Author: Gong Qinyan
Publisher: American Academic Press
ISBN: 1631815849
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
The translator is one of the key elements in the practice of translation. However, the roles of the translator have long been overlooked and even denied in the history of translation studies, which has led to the invisibility of the translator. The reasons for the invisibility of the translator have been investigated in this book. With the emergence of new thoughts in philosophy, cultural studies, cognitive science and linguistic theories, changes have occurred in the ideas about the roles of the translator and resulted in the visibility of the translator and the prominence of the subjectivity of the translator in translation studies. This book explores the changes from two major perspectives. One perspective is from structuralism and the objective standards applied in natural science and social sciences related to the translator’s invisibility. The other perspective is from hermeneutics, phenomenology, existentialism, the theory of power and discourse, embodied philosophy, relevance theory, and cognitive linguistics, all of which explain the subjectivity of the translator and support the viewpoint that the translator is active, rather than passive, in translation activities, and hence the visibility of the translator in translation studies.
