Introducing New Hypertexts on Interpreting (Studies)

The contributions in this volume are a reflection of the entire range of Interpreting Studies, from explorations of research methodology and interpreting quality research to public service interpreting today and in the past, risk management strategies in court interpreting, and the interdependencies of interpreters in project networks. They address questions such as who can be called an interpreter, present new approaches to interpreter education, and discuss advances in technology, both in terms of speech-to-text interpreting and the changes that the Covid-19 pandemic has brought to the lives of interpreters. The breadth of this volume’s topics reflects the oeuvre of Franz Pöchhacker, who has left his mark on Interpreting Studies over more than three decades. This tribute not only reflects the many strands of his work, but also offers new research and insights by established scholars and young researchers in the ever growing field of Interpreting Studies.

Teaching Interpreting and Live Subtitling

Teaching Interpreting and Live Subtitling: Contexts, Modes and Technologies provides a cross section of multinational perspectives on teaching various dimensions of interpreting and live subtitling, both within dedicated programmes and as part of individual modules on interpreting and/or live subtitling-adjacent programmes. Interpreting training and live subtitling training have been undergoing rapid and far-reaching transformations in recent years because of technological advances and the sweeping shifts in the contexts within which they seek to mediate, ultimately bringing about new modes. This volume covers the broad spectrum of interpreting and live subtitling trainings and discusses the...

Translating for Museums, Galleries and Heritage Sites

In any museum, gallery, or heritage site that wishes to engage with foreign-language visitors, translation is essential. Providing texts in foreign languages – whether for international visitors from different language cultures or for heritage speakers of local minority languages – is centrally important in enabling these visitors to make sense of what they see displayed. Yet despite this awareness, and a growing body of research in the field, there has hitherto been little available in the way of practical training in this area of translation. This book aims to help fill that need. Translating for Museums, Galleries and Heritage Sites focuses on the translation of interpretive and infor...

Dolmetschen als Dienst am Menschen

Ausgehend vom facettenreichen Schaffen von Mira Kadrić präsentiert dieser Band Beiträge, die von einer Konzeption des Dolmetschens als Dienst am Menschen ausgehen und verschiedene ethisch-humanistische, politisch-rechtliche und kritisch-emanzipatorische Dimensionen des Dolmetschens in den Blick nehmen. In einem ersten Themenkreis wird aus dolmetschwissenschaftlicher Sicht der Dialog mit verschiedenen Bedarfsträger:innen in den Mittelpunkt gestellt. Danach werden der Dialog von Dolmetscher:innen mit der Gesellschaft und daraus resultierende rechtliche Fragestellungen untersucht. Und schließlich werden Fragen der Didaktik unter dem Aspekt des Dialogs der Dolmetschwissenschaft mit Lernenden und Lehrenden diskutiert. Mit diesen multiperspektivischen Beiträgen wird, ganz im Sinne von Mira Kadrić, Dolmetschen als gesellschaftspolitische Handlung verortet und weiterentwickelt.

Gendered Technology in Translation and Interpreting

This collection takes an interdisciplinary approach to the study of gendered technology, an emerging area of inquiry that draws on a range of fields to explore how technology is designed and used in a way that reinforces or challenges gender norms and inequalities. The volume explores different perspectives on the impact of technology on gender relations through specific cases of translation and interpreting technologies. In particular, the book considers the slow response of legal frameworks in dealing with the rise of language-based technologies, especially machine translation and large language models, and their impacts on individual and collective rights. Part I introduces the study of g...
