The Identity of the Professional Interpreter
This monograph examines how higher education(HE) institutions construct ‘professional identities’ in the classroom, specifically how dominant discourses in institutions frame the social role, requisite skills and character required to practice a profession, and how students navigate these along their academic trajectories. This book is based on a longitudinal case study of a prestigious HE institution specialising in training professional interpreters. Adopting an innovative research approach, it investigates a community of aspiring professionals in a HE context by drawing on small story narrative analysis from an ethnographic perspective to provide emic insights into the student community and the development of their social identities. The findings (contextualised by examining the curricula of similar institutions worldwide) suggest that interpreter institutions might not be providing students with a clear and comprehensive picture of the interpreter profession, and not responding to its increasingly complex role in today’s society.
The Wrong Door
The Wrong Door is the first English-language translation of the complete plays of Italian writer Natalia Ginzburg (1916-1991). Bringing together the eleven plays Ginzburg wrote between 1965 and the months before her death, this volume directs attention to Ginzburg's unique talent as a dramatist. Ginzburg's plays, like her novels and short stories, are incisive, finely tuned studies of family drama, of the breakdown of relations between the sexes, and of the tribulations of Italian domestic life. The plays showcase Ginzburg's fearless social commentary, her stark and darkly comic observations of Italian life, and her prescient analyses of the socio-economic changes that have transformed moder...

Kagan's Kitchen
Brett Kagan's life is as much of a mess as his kitchen is when his roommate cooks. After the unspeakable thing he did to his competitor's mashed potatoes on a cooking show catches up to him, everything starts to go downhill, and he has to save his restaurant somehow. Luckily, he's got a good team on his side: the happiest pastry chef on Earth, an ex-sword swallower, the stepsister he never knew he had, a vegan who specializes in meat, a fry cook who may be a borderline mad scientist, and a decently annoying cooking show host. Then, of course, there's the recent college graduate next door who is absolutely determined to learn how to cook. They might stand a chance.
