    Book SynopsisThe teaching of texts in translation has become an increasingly common practice, but so too has the teaching of texts from languages and cultures with which the instructor may have little or no familiarity. The authors in this volume present a variety of pedagogical approaches to promote translation literacy and to address the distinct phenomenology of translated texts. The approaches set forward in this volume address the nature of the translator's task and how texts travel across linguistic and cultural boundaries in translation, including how they are packaged for new audiences, with the aim of fostering critical reading practices that focus on translations as translations. The organizing principle of the book is the specific pedagogical contexts in which translated texts are being used, such as courses on a single work, survey courses on a single national literature or a single author, and courses on world literature. Examples are provided from the widest possible varietyTrade ReviewThis is a tremendously useful addition to the bookshelf and toolkit of literature professors who teach in a global perspective—and for those who do not, it offers an excellent account of why they should. Dealing with texts from a wide variety of cultures, contributors show how attending to translation can enhance educational experience in real classroom settings.David Bellos, Princeton University, USATable of ContentsList of ContributorsAcknowledgementsIntroductory SectionIs There a Translation in This Class?: A Crash Course in Translation Literacy, Brian James BaerBringing the Translator into the Classroom, or the Translator as Exegete, Michelle WoodsHow to Use This Volume, Brian James Baer and Michelle Woods Section I: Interrogating Key Cultural Texts: Cultural Dissonance and Stereoscopic ReadingChapter 1: How to Make the Best of a Bad Translation: The Case of René Marqués’s The Oxcart, J.

  • Taylor & Francis Audio Description for the Arts

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book traces the development of audio description (AD), a form of audiovisual translation delivered orally and consumed aurally that makes visual elements accessible primarily to people who are visually impaired, and in particular, art AD as an emergent sub-genre.Perego reflects on the static arts and the role of modern museums as key sites for art AD and multisensory environments that create memorable experiences for visitors. Based on professional, pre-recorded British and American English AD scripts, this book outlines the textual and linguistic features of art AD and its most relevant textual patterns. It explores diverse AD practices across different contexts, including stand-alone ADs for specific paintings and sculptures that can be consumed independently to enhance the appeal and accessibility of cultural environments. Moreover, the book investigates AD tours, which provide descriptions of a selection of interconnected artworks while also assisting, through focused instructions, visually impaired individuals in navigating the museum space, as well as touch tours, which incorporate procedural instructions on how to experience three-dimensional art or reproductions through tactile senses. Offering unique insights and future research directions for this growing area, this volume will be of interest to students and scholars in translation studies and media accessibility.Trade Review"With Audio Description for the Arts. A Linguistic Perspective, Elisa Perego offers a thoroughly researched, landmark account of how audio description is most effectively practiced particularly for static work. Perego takes a giant step toward greater accessibility in museums for a long-neglected segment of the population." - Joel Snyder, Ph.D., President, Audio Description Associates, LLC, Founder and Senior Consultant, Audio Description Project of the American Council of the Blind"Audio Description for the Arts. A Linguistic Perspective presents data-driven insights into the distinct linguistic features of different types of art AD: recorded tours, touch tours and stand-alone descriptions. This much-needed book will prove stimulating reading for practitioners, researchers and students alike." - Dr Rachel Hutchinson, Lecturer in Psychology, University of Westminster.Table of ContentsList of Figures, Examples and TablesForeword AcknowledgementsIntroduction and methodological considerations 1 Introducing AD 1.1 Translating semiotically complex texts 1.2 Translation and accessibility 1.3 What is AD? 1.4 Historical overview 1.5 Target users 1.6 Visual disability 1.7 AD language 1.8 Procedural discourse in AD 2 AD for the arts 2.1 What is art? 2.2 Museums and galleries 2.3 Art AD 2.4 Enriched AD 2.5 Live and recorded AD 2.5.1 AD delivery 2.5.2 The AD script 2.5.3 Receptor tools 2.6 Listenability 3 Stand-alone AD: paintings 3.1 Paintings 3.2 Corpus overview 3.3 Typifying verbs 3.4 Tense, aspect, and modality 3.5 Lexical specificities 3.6 Colour names 3.7 In-text orientation 3.8 Writing in the third person 4 Stand-alone ADs: sculptures 4.1 Sculptures 4.2 Corpus overview 4.3 Typifying verbs 4.4 Tense, aspect, and modality 4.5 Lexical specificities 4.5.1 Body parts 4.5.2 Material names 4.5.3 Adverbs 5 AD tours 5.1 Working stages 5.2 Tour structure 5.3 Corpus overview 5.4 Typifying verbs 5.5 Lexical specificities 5.6 Colour names 5.7 Engaging the visitor 5.8 Directional language 6 Touch tours 6.1 Touch and art 6.2 Corpus overview6.3 Typifying verbs 6.4 Tense, aspect, and modality 6.5 Lexical specificities 6.6 The exploration process ConclusionIndex

    Book SynopsisThis collection engages with translation and interpreting from a diverse but complementary range of perspectives, in dialogue with the seminal work of Theo Hermans. A foundational figure in the field, Hermans's scholarly engagement with translation spans several key areas, including history of translation, metaphor, norms, ethics, ideology, methodology, and the critical reconceptualization of the positioning of the translator and of translation itself as a social and hermeneutic practice. Those he has mentored or inspired through his lectures and pioneering publications over the years are now household names in the field, with many represented in this volume. They come together here both to critically re-examine translation as a social, political and conceptual site of negotiation and to celebrate his contributions to the field.The volume opens with an extended introduction and personal tribute by the editor, which situates Hermans's work within the broader development of criTrade Review"This is a rich collection of interventions which speak to the most current and urgent questions in Translation Studies: from material culture to the question of agency, from ecotranslation to the role of transdisciplinary and transnational approaches in the Humanities. That contributors do all this while engaging with Theo Hermans’s work is the best possible testimony to the originality of his thinking and the legacy of his scholarship." Loredana Polezzi, Stony Brook University, USA"Theo Hermans is one of the most prominent figures in the disciplinary history of translation studies. He has been a key player in institutionalising the field but also an independent critical voice against excessive institutionalising, promoting a view of 'a splintered discipline, a de-centred and perhaps ex-centric field of study that must learn to speak several tongues, recognizes the contingency of theory and seeks to make its own uncertainties productive' (Hermans 2006:9). This collective volume edited by Mona Baker, another likeminded critical thinker, is a testament to this vision, and the many chapters by prominent TS scholars expand on Hermans's ideas and unleash productive uncertainties in ways that capture the reader's scientific imagination and create a desire to reread his entire oeuvre."

    Book SynopsisTranslation Ethics introduces the topic of ethics for students, researchers, and professional translators. Based on a successful course and written by an experienced instructor, the Introduction and nine core chapters offer an accessible examination of a wide range of interlocking topic areas, which combine to form a cohesive whole, guiding students through the key debates.Built upon a theoretical background founded in philosophy and moral theory, it outlines the main contributions in the area and traces the development of thought on ethics from absolutism to relativism, or, from staunchly-argued textual viewpoints to current lines of thought placing the translator as agent and an active even interventionary mediator. The textbook then examines the place of ethical enquiry in the context of professional translation, critiquing provision such as codes of ethics. Each chapter includes key discussion points, suggested topics for essays, presentations, or in-class debateTrade ReviewAn excellent and comprehensive introductory textbook on a much-debated topic: wide-ranging, clearly structured and reader-friendly. The illustrative case studies are aptly chosen, and the suggested activities and discussion points are pedagogically stimulating. Lambert is rather good at problematizing: readers are refreshingly encouraged to think! The book deserves to become a standard work.-- Andrew Chesterman, University of Helsinki, FinlandTable of ContentsAcknowledgements; About the Author ; List of Figures; List of Boxes; Series Editor Foreword; Introduction; 1.
