Towards an Atlas of the History of Interpreting
The aspiration of an Atlas is to cover the whole world, by compiling cartographical material representing territories from across the five continents. This book intends to contribute to that ideally comprehensive, yet always unfinished, Atlas with pieces gathered from all of the Earth’s regions. However, its focus is not so much of a geographical nature (although maps and geographical reflections are not absent in its pages), but of a historical-analytical one. As such, the Atlas engages in the historical analysis of interpreters (of both language and cultures) in multiple interpreting settings and places, including in zones which are less frequently studied in specialized literature, in d...
The Routledge Handbook of Latin American Literary Translation
The Routledge Handbook of Latin American Literary Translation offers an understanding of translation in Latin America both at a regional and transnational scale. Broad in scope, it is devoted primarily to thinking comprehensively and systematically about the intersection of literary translation and Latin American literature, with a curated selection of original essays that critically engage with translation theories and practices outside of hegemonic Anglo centers. In this introductory volume, through survey and case-study chapters, contributing authors cover literary and cultural translation in the region historically, geographically, and linguistically. From the nineteenth to the twenty-fi...
The Routledge Handbook of Translation, Interpreting and Crisis
This handbook offers a broad-ranging overview of the study of translating and interpreting in conflict and crisis settings and takes the field in new directions. Covering a wide selection of multimodal contexts that build on the fundamentals of translation, interpreting, and their in-between hybrid forms of mediation, the handbook is divided into four parts. The opening part covers perspectives on policy and practices, whether contemporary or historical, and cases truly span the globe, from Peru and Brazil, over Belgium and Sierra Leone, to Australia, Japan, and Hong Kong. International developments require profound considerations about the professionalisation of access to language in times ...
Traducción y representaciones del conflicto desde España y América
La mediación lingüística entre España y América en compleja y multifacética. Su análisis contribuye a explicar otros fenómenos de transformación sociocultural distintos de la lengua, y que requiere ser explorado desde la interdisciplinaridad. Los lectores encontraran reflexiones organizadas en torno a cuatro secciones bien diferenciadas. Las dos primeras abordan las relaciones entre la traducción y el conflicto vistas desde el prisma de la historia, y consideran las fronteras geopolíticas como los espacios genuinos donde entraron en liza identidades y alteridades en permanente evolución, el tablero de juego donde se desarrolló el juego colonial iniciado desde la Península Ibér...

New Insights in the History of Interpreting
Who mediated intercultural exchanges in 9th-century East Asia or in early voyages to the Americas? Did the Soviets or the Americans invent simultaneous interpreting equipment? How did the US government train its first Chinese interpreters? Why is it that Taiwanese interpreters were executed for Japanese war crimes? Bringing together papers from an international symposium held at Rikkyo University in 2014 along with two select pieces, this volume pursues such questions in an eclectic exploration of the practice of interpreting, the recruitment of interpreters, and the challenges interpreters have faced in diplomacy, colonization, religion, war, and occupation. It also introduces innovative use of photography, artifacts, personal journals, and fiction as tools for the historical study of interpreters and interpreting. Targeted at practitioners, scholars, and students of interpreting, translation, and history, the new insights presented in the ten original articles aim to spark discussion and research on the vital roles interpreters have played in intercultural communication through history.

Mesjasze i millennia pustkowia
Celem dociekań Autora jest przede wszystkim ustalenie, czy brazylijskie ruchy społeczno-religijne miały millenarystyczno-mesjanistyczny charakter, ale zakres zebranych i wykorzystanych przez niego materiałów znacząco wykracza poza nakreślony temat (…), co dowodzi jego ogromnej erudycji oraz gruntownej znajomości całego iberoamerykańskiego obszaru kulturowego (…). Z książki tej czytelnik dowie się zatem dużo więcej, niż obiecuje jej tytuł. I będzie to dodatkowo lektura nie tylko pouczająca, ale także bardzo przyjemna. dr Renata Siuda-Ambroziak W obszarze zainteresowania autora jest w szczególności (choć nie tylko) obszar północno-wschodniej Brazylii – rozległy ...
