Recenzii
A great contribution to translation scholarship [which] will serve as a very valuable and welcome resource for both students and academics.
A timely and important contribution to the further development of the study of translation and media, highlighting diverse and dynamic functions of translation in our new era. With the well-organised themes and reader-friendly glossary section, the volume appeals to both experts and students in translation, media and film studies.
This timely book makes a very important contribution to the growing field of translation and media. Unusual in placing the translator firmly in the spotlight, these varied and informative studies show how translators and translating are presented in films, or represented in advertisements, or discussed on social media. A fascinating and instructive resource for researchers and students at all levels.
A most welcome follow-up to Abend-David's Media and Translation, this book offers a provocative and engaging look at translation not so much as an operation but as the complex protagonist of the communication exchanges. Spanning a wide array of geographical and disciplinary perspectives - from China, to South Africa, to Europe, to America, and from gender studies, media studies, ethics, and politics - Representing Translation is a refreshing addition to the literature that is to become an indispensable reference.
This collection of the latest thinking on audiovisual representations of translation and interpreting episodes in multilingual films throws into graphic relief the ineluctable tension between the ubiquity of machine or auto-generated translations in the mass media and the need for genuinely humanistic translation solutions perceptive of diverse cultures.
The possibilities and impossibilities of translating texts, emotions, cultural codes, social norms and linguistic subtleties fascinate contemporary cinema, television, advertising, and social media. Representing Translation: The Representation of Translation and Translators in Contemporary Media is a significant contribution to scholarship on these exuberant topics and a timely reconsideration of the interrelations between translation, culture and mass communications.
