Focusing on multimodality in translation studies, this edited volume provides insights into the trends and practices of multimodal translation in a variety of media. Divided into four main themes, the book explores audiovisual translation in digital media, multimodal translation of Chinese classics, multimodal design in website translation, and the use of paratexts in conference interpreting. Contributors draw on a diverse range of methods and theoretical models, including systemic functional multimodal discourse analysis, narrative theory, Skopos-functional theory, multimodal analysis of digital discourse, and corpus-based multimodal analysis. It covers important topics in media translation...
IN THE NEWS Weimin Wu: pioneer physicist on Chinese science's turbulent past, promising future Times Higher Education, 25 February 2016 While the first 30 years of new China's scientific development was a self-reliant era marked by the detonations of the atomic bomb, the hydrogen bomb, and the launch of the first artificial satellite, the second 30 years after the reform and opening up was signified by the introduction of the Internet to China.
