Book Synopsis Specialized translation. Theoretical issues, operational perspectives by : Kim Grego
Download or read book Specialized translation. Theoretical issues, operational perspectives written by Kim Grego. This book was released on 2010. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This work draws largely on considerations and perspectives from various areas in Applied Linguistics, especially Translation Studies and English for Specific Purposes, but also studies on genres and discourse. Starting with a recapitulation of Translation Studies to this day, the book proposes an operational interpretation of the translating phenomenon, before going on to describe and analyze the specificity of specialized translation. Finally, it discusses the recent changes undergone by specialized discourse in the web age, and their influence on the suggested view of translation as a product, a process and a practice."--Publisher's description.

Book Synopsis Insights Into Specialized Translation by : Maurizio Gotti
Download or read book Insights Into Specialized Translation written by Maurizio Gotti. This book was released on 2006. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on specialist translation - one of the areas of translation in greatest demand in our age of globalization. The 16 chapters deal not only with the classical domains of science and technology, law, socio-politics and medicine but also with lesser researched areas such as archeology, geography, nutrigenomics and others. As a whole, the book achieves a blend of theory and practice. It addresses a variety of issues such as translation strategy based on text type and purpose, intercultural transfer and quality assessment, as well as textual and terminological issues in bilingual and multilingual settings, including international organizations and the European Union. Today translation competence presupposes multidisciplinary skills. Whereas some chapters analyze the linguistic features of special-purpose texts and their function in specialized communication, others show how specialized translation has changed as a result of globalization and how advances in technology have altered terminology research and translation processing.

Book Synopsis Research and Professional Practice in Specialised Translation by : Federica Scarpa
Download or read book Research and Professional Practice in Specialised Translation written by Federica Scarpa. This book was released on 2020-09-18. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Specialised translation has received very little attention from academic researchers, but in fact accounts for the bulk of professional translation on a global scale and is taught in a growing number of university-level translation programmes. This book aims to provide three things. Firstly, it offers a description of what makes the approach to specialised translation distinctive from wider-ranging approaches to Translation Studies adopted by translation scholars and applied linguists. Secondly, unlike the traditional approach to specialised translation, this book explores a perspective on specialised translation that is much less focused on terminology and more on the function and reception of specialised (translated) texts. Finally, the author outlines a professionally-oriented hands-on approach to the teaching of specialised translation resulting from many years of teaching it to MA students. The book will be of interest to Translation Studies students and scholars, as well as professional translators who are interested in the theory on which their activity is based.

Book Synopsis Handbook of Translation Studies by : Yves Gambier
Download or read book Handbook of Translation Studies written by Yves Gambier. This book was released on 2013-12-20. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a meaningful manifestation of how institutionalized the discipline has become, the new Handbook of Translation Studies is most welcome. It joins the other signs of maturation such as Summer Schools, the development of academic curricula, historical surveys, journals, book series, textbooks, terminologies, bibliographies and encyclopedias. The HTS aims at disseminating knowledge about translation and interpreting and providing easy access to a large range of topics, traditions, and methods to a relatively broad audience: not only students who often adamantly prefer such user-friendliness, researchers and lecturers in Translation Studies, Translation & Interpreting professionals; but also scholars and experts from other disciplines (among which linguistics, sociology, history, psychology). In addition the HTS addresses any of those with a professional or personal interest in the problems of translation, interpreting, localization, editing, etc., such as communication specialists, journalists, literary critics, editors, public servants, business managers, (intercultural) organization specialists, media specialists, marketing professionals. The usability, accessibility and flexibility of the HTS depend on the commitment of people who agree that Translation Studies does matter. All users are therefore invited to share their feedback. Any questions, remarks and suggestions for improvement can be sent to the editorial team at [email protected]. Next to the book edition (in printed and electronic, PDF, format), HTS is also available as an online resource, connected with the Translation Studies Bibliography.
