Recenzii

James Nolan's useful, engaging text deftly describes the art of interpreting and provides brilliant exercises for its mastery. Conveying the hilarity of situations beyond the interpreter's control: speed demons, frankly stupid remarks; he also sensitively evokes those frustrating deep cultural references that no interpretation can satisfy. Interpreters will find here a guide to honing their skill and an expression of the joy inherent in this marvelous profession. Joanna Dezio, New York University, and visiting scholar at Montclair State University, USA Interpretation (2nd Edition) is the most valuable didactic tool and every instructor should have it available for his or her college students. I very highly recommend James Nolan's work on interpretation. Juan Carlos Chaves, University of Wisconsin-River Falls , USA This book is a well-organized practical handbook for interpreter trainees. It is a solid and innovative tool which can be used by teachers, students and practitioners of interpretation. The exercises are instructive and the excerpts from speeches and the potpourri of stock phrases and idioms are well chosen and interesting. I highly recommend it. Jean Matthews, Chief, English Section, Interpretation Service, United Nations, New York
