Translation And Neoliberalism

~~184,84€~~ 166,36€ 10% OFF

 This book explores the intersections of neoliberalism, translation, and interpreting, a scarcely explored topic in the field of translation studies across diverse regions, including Europe, North America, Asia, and Australia, covering four primary themes that offer unique perspectives on how neoliberal ideologies influence translation and interpreting. The first theme uses data triangulation to delve into the influence of market-driven ideologies on translation and interpreting curriculum globally as well as the neoliberal tendencies of the trainees in China and Korea. The second theme investigates the effects of top-down neoliberal policies on translation services and practices in Australia, Canada, and the UAE, examining how these policies influence service quality, working conditions, and the balance between market demands and academic requirements. The third theme assesses the influence of technology and neoliberalism on the translation and interpreting labor market, providing a critical analysis of the automation of translation workflows, the rise of non-standard employment arrangements, and the socio-economic challenges faced by translation professionals. The final theme analyzes the intersection of neoliberalism and translation at the discourse level, employing various approaches including critical discourse analysis and content analysis to explore how neoliberal values manifest in translated texts and practices in China, Iran, and USA. This book is an essential resource for academics, postgraduate students, researchers, policymakers, educators, and practitioners interested in the dynamic interplay between neoliberalism and translation, offering new insights and critical perspectives that contribute to a deeper understanding of the socio-economic forces shaping the field of translation and interpreting.

Literary Digital Stylistics In Translation Studies

by Anna Maria Cipriani

~~132,49€~~ 119,24€ 10% OFF

 This book presents a systematic literary comparison of the retranslations by adopting a mixed-method and bottom-up (inductive) approach by developing an empirical corpus approach. This corpus is specifically tailored to identify and study linguistic and non-linguistic modernist features throughout the texts, such as stream of consciousness-indirect interior monologue and free indirect speech. All occurrences are analysed quantitatively in the computations of inferential and comparative statistics, such as tests of time trends, lexical variety, and lexical frequency. The target texts are digitised, and the resulting text files are then analysed using a bespoke, novel computer program capable of the functions not provided by commercially available software such as WordSmith Tools and WMatrix. This methodology enables in-depth explorations of micro- and macro-textual features and allows a mixed-method approach combining close-reading qualitative analysis with systematic quantitative comparisons. The empirical study of the digital corpus of eleven Italian (re)translations of Virginia Woolf’s To the Lighthouse identifies a progressive source-text orientation only in a relatively few aspects of a few target texts. The translators’ presence affects all the examined target texts in terms of register and style under the influence of the Italian translation norms usually attributed to the translation of literary classics. Its intended readership comprises students of the mentioned fields and the general public of readers, editors, and publishers.

New Trends In Healthcare Interpreting Studies - An Updated Review Of Research In The Field

171,59€ + 10% CARD

 Interpreting studies have exponentially grown over the years propelled by the realities of multicultural societies which, among other factors, include constant waves of immigration and the subsequent allocation of newly arrived citizens in their host countries—a process entailing public service access and provision. Communicative interactions between users who do not speak the same language as public service providers have been largely studied in different settings belonging to the field Public Service Translation and Interpreting (PSIT), ranging from police, asylum, legal, educational or, focus of this book, healthcare contexts. This edited book offers a unique and updated insight into the research advances and the state of the art in healthcare interpreting. Contributions cover methodological innovations, together with hot topics, such as changing roles, gender, specialized contexts, training programs, and ethical codes, to name but a few.
