What’s Special about Specialised Translation?

Essays in Honour of Federica Scarpa

298 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This volume honours Federica Scarpa, a prominent figure in Translation Studies who has made a major contribution to defining, describing and researching specialised translation. In her body of research, Scarpa has successfully combined insights from a variety of approaches, from functional theories to the cultural turn and, more recently, profession-related aspects. Her approach to the study of specialised translation considers multiple dimensions (discoursal, pragmatic and service-related) and builds an organic model capable of accommodating context-based quality criteria and advances in technology. The chapters collected in the volume develop some of Scarpa’s ideas and have been authored by scholars and professionals who have established a direct dialogue with Scarpa or benefited from her insights.
