Less Translated Languages (Benjamins Translation Library)
The idea for this book, Less Translated Languages, arose from the 5th International Conference on Translation, “Interculturality and Translation: Less Translated Languages”, organised by the Departament de Traducció i d’Interpretació at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (Catalonia, Spain) in October 2001.1 The focus of this conference was the role of translation in cross-cultural relations with special emphasis on languages which are less translated and more particularly on Catalan, a significant Western minority language that remains largely unresearched in mainstream Translation Studies.
The Discourse of Court Interpreting: Discourse Practices of the Law,the Witness and the Interpreter (Benjamins Translation Library)
This book explores the intricacies of court interpreting through a thorough analysis of the authentic discourse of the English-speaking participants, the Spanish-speaking witnesses and the interpreters. Written by a practitioner, educator and researcher, the book presents the reader with real issues that most court interpreters face during their work and shows through the results of careful research studies that interpreter’s choices can have varying degrees of influence on the triadic exchange.
