Practices, Education and Technology in Audiovisual Translation: Routledge Research in Audiovisual Translation
Autor Alejandro Bolaños García-Escribanoen Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 aug 2024
The volume begins by outlining a holistic account of audiovisual translation scholarship, which includes work on subtitling and dubbing but which has grown to encompass a wider range of practices in light of new technologies, before looking at the current landscape of translator education, including greater interest in distance education and AVT-centered curriculum design. These foundations set the stage for an examination of technological inroads which have permeated AVT practice, including the rise of cloud-based technologies and their use by major media companies. Bolaños draws parallels between these developments to demonstrate the ways in which new tools can help the ever-evolving needs of both the translation industry and higher education and in turn, foster industry-academia collaboration and the growth of new technologies through investment at the pedagogical level.
This book will be of interest to students, scholars, and practitioners in translation studies, particularly those working in audiovisual translation, translation technologies, and translator training.

Recenzii
"No one like the author of this book – a scholar, a teacher and a professional in the field of audiovisual translation – can better testify to the technological turn that this discipline has undergone in the past few years, catering for both educators’ and students’ needs with a practical approach to the use of industry-led tools. This rich and agile monograph on audiovisual translation practices is based on a solid theoretical framework and years of research into technologically advanced instruments used for teaching and learning purposes."
- Irene Ranzato, Sapienza Università di Roma
"This exquisitely conceived monograph touches on the ins and outs of audiovisual translation and delves into a vast array of industry practices, pedagogical initiatives, and cutting-edge technologies. Unravelling the transformative power of technology in general, and cloud ecosystems in particular, and through the eyes of a seasoned professional and educator, this book allows readers to rethink media localization education by looking at its present and future."
- Frederic Chaume, Universitat Jaume I
"Bolaños García-Escribano’s monograph takes readers to the exciting and ever-changing state of audiovisual translation practice, education and technology, but also gives indications of how the future may look in a world where artificial intelligence plays an ever-increasing role and the media localisation industry is dominated by streaming services. This research-based book examines the practices of audiovisual translation, delves into educational approaches, and sheds light on new technologies used in both practices and higher education, without which neither of the two would be possible. This prolific scholar has given us a book that will feature among the go-to reference monographs for practitioners, educators, technology developers, and anyone interested in audiovisual translation in the years to come."
- Kristijan Nikolić, University of Zagreb
"Bolaños García-Escribano’s new book provides an updated and informed overview of current practices and pedagogies in audiovisual translation. The author has a thorough knowledge of the latest media localisation technology and reflects on its impact and affordances in a lucid and systematic way. This book will speak to industry professionals, trainers, and academic researchers alike, and will also be a precious resource for students in translation, media, and communication."
- Dionysios Kapsaskis, University of Roehampton
"The author skilfully blends academic expertise and industry experience into this systematic and meticulous monograph making a substantial and much-needed contribution to the field of AVT in an educational context. Its three-part structure —delving into practices, education, and technologies— offers a lucid, compelling, and innovative journey through valuable practical insights, tools, and resources, particularly useful in a classroom setting. This is an indispensable read for academics, trainers, and researchers in AVT."
