Investigating Translation

Sinopsis del Libro

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.

Translation, Mediation and Accessibility for Linguistic Minorities

Linguistic minorities are everywhere, and they are diverse. In this context, linguistic mediation activities – whether translation or interpreting – are key to the social inclusion of any kind of linguistic minority. In most societies autochthonous linguistic minorities coexist with foreignspeaking minorities and people with (or without) disabilities who rely linguistically or medially adapted on texts to access information. The present volume draws on this broad understanding of the concept of linguistic minorities to explore some of the newest developments in the field of translation...

Abracadabra

Desde sus mismos orígenes, el cine ha estado fuertemente vinculado con el mundo de la magia escénica y el ilusionismo. Pioneros como Georges Méliès fueron, antes que cineastas, prestidigitadores, así que no es extraño que las trayectorias de ambas artes hayan estado siempre estrechamente entrelazadas. De esos vínculos, precisamente, trata este libro. Como en aquellas casetas que poblaban las antiguas ferias ambulantes, esperan al curioso en estas páginas cincuenta historias plagadas de misterios, trucos y prodigios. Descubrirá aquí el lector el doble vínculo —con el cine y la...
