Übersetzungsprozesse im langen 18. Jahrhundert: Wissensräume zwischen Transkulturalität und nationalen Diskursen

Übersetzungsprozesse im langen 18. Jahrhundert: Wissensräume zwischen Transkulturalität und nationalen Diskursen

herausgegeben von Carla Dalbeck, Caroline Mannheimer, Diego Stefanelli. - Stuttgart : Franz Steiner Verlag, 2025. - (Studien zur Übersetzungsgeschichte ; Band 5)

Die zunehmende Verwendung der Vernakularsprachen innerhalb der gelehrten Kommunikation führt im 18. Jahrhundert zu einer neuen Übersetzungskultur. Diese reagiert nicht nur auf den wachsenden Bedarf an Übersetzungen zwischen einzelnen Volkssprachen, sondern trägt aktiv zur Herausbildung nationalsprachlicher Wissensräume bei. Die Autor:innen des Sammelbandes beleuchten diesen vielschichtigen Prozess, indem sie Übersetzungsaktivitäten in unterschiedlichen Gattungen untersuchen.

Pauses in Simultaneous Interpreting: A Multimodal Corpus-Based Approach

Pauses in Simultaneous Interpreting: A Multimodal Corpus-Based Approach

Taoyun Qi. - Cham : Springer, 2026

This book presents cutting-edge research on simultaneous interpreting based on a multimodal corpus. It examines various aspects of pausing, an important non-verbal feature, such as its frequency, duration, and syntactic distribution in professional interpreters’ English-to-Chinese simultaneous interpreting. In addition to describing the pause characteristics, the book investigates their connections with interpreters’ behavior and cognition. It also introduces the procedures for constructing a multimodal simultaneous interpreting corpus and the analytical methods used in its application. As one of the first books to employ in-depth multimodal corpus analysis in the study of simultaneous interpreting, it advances corpus-based interpreting research and serves as a valuable reference for scholars in the field.

Translate: Multilingual Access to Critical Services in the Age of AI

Translate: Multilingual Access to Critical Services in the Age of AI

Lucas N. Vieira. - Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2026

This timely book explores the social challenges and ethical considerations of using artificial intelligence (AI) translations in high-stakes professional environments. Based on contributions from over two thousand professionals from critical sectors including healthcare, social work, emergency services and the police, the analysis explores the motivations and consequences of multilingual uses of AI across these sectors. Real-life examples provided throughout the book bring home the delicate balance of risks and benefits of using AI to serve and communicate with multilingual communities. By drawing on concepts such as virtue, trust, empathy and AI literacy, this book makes a case for nuance and flexibility, defends the value of language access, and calls for greater transparency in the development and deployment of AI translation tools.

Teaching translation in the age of generative AI: New paradigm, new learning?

Teaching translation in the age of generative AI: New paradigm, new learning?

J. C. Penet (ed), Joss Moorkens (ed), Masaru Yamada (ed). - Berlin: Language Science Press, 2026. - (Translation and Multilingual Natural Language Processing ; 25)

Since the launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT in 2022, generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has started reshaping what it means to work as a professional translator in an industry that is becoming increasingly automated. This prompts us to interrogate, once again, the role and agency of human translators in the translation process or, in other words, the intrinsically human value and values they add to it. A natural corollary is that GenAI forces us translator educators to (re-)interrogate what we do in our translation programmes. Whatever we may think or feel about GenAI, we owe it to our students to engage with it in our programmes. However, because GenAI is not just another tool in the translator’s toolkit, we must also to do so in a way that raises students’ awareness of some of the ethical and sustainability issues around it.

Langues et diplomaties, XVe-XXIe siècle: Languages and diplomacy, 15th to 21st centuries

Langues et diplomaties, XVe-XXIe siècle: Languages and diplomacy, 15th to 21st centuries

Guido Braun, Camille Desenclos, Renaud Meltz (eds.). - 1. Auflage. - Stuttgart : W. Kohlhammer, 2024

Communicative practices in diplomacy have recently attracted increased interest in research. Despite the increasing dominance of one language, diplomatic foreign relations from the late Middle Ages to the present are characterised by multilingualism. As this often leads to translation problems, translations and translators have an important bridging function. This volume takes a trans-epochal, interdisciplinary look at these processes from the perspectives of history, linguistics and translation studies. Particular attention is paid to the actors and practices of translation - from the late medieval Kingdom of Naples to the French Revolution and today’s United Nations.

Inarticulacy in Creative Writing Practice and Translation: Where Language Thickens

Inarticulacy in Creative Writing Practice and Translation: Where Language Thickens

Judy Kendall. - 1st ed. - London : Bloomsbury Academic, 2025.

An investigation into the powerful effects occurring at the threshold between articulation and inarticulation in original and translated works, this book models how creative writing research, practice, processes, products and theories can further academic thought. At the threshold of in/articulacy, language can be said to thicken and obscure the usual conditions of legibility or lexical meaning, becoming unfamiliar, flexible, incomplete, even absent. These thickening moments alter and enrich literary processes and texts to initiate a paradigm shift in composition, translation and reading experiences.

Universality and translation: sites of struggle in philosophy and politics

Universality and translation: sites of struggle in philosophy and politics

Gavin Arnall and Katie Chenoweth, editors. - First edition. - New York : Fordham University Press, 2025

Collecting essays that draw from multiple intellectual traditions and orientations, with a special emphasis on deconstruction and Marxism, this volume both reveals and participates in a subterranean current of thought committed to theorizing the dynamic, plural, and ultimately inextricable relationship between translation and universality. Its contributors approach this problem in ways that challenge and unsettle dominant trends within translation studies and critical and postcolonial theory, thereby opening new lines of inquiry within and beyond these fields. The present volume, in contrast, advocates neither for nor against translation or universality as such. Instead, it attends to their insurmountable ambiguity and equivocity, the tensions and contradictions that are internal to both concepts and that exist between them. Indeed, the wager of this volume is that translation, universality, and their relationship name irreducible yet overlapping sites of struggle for a diverse array of struggles on the Left.

Between Words and Sounds: Cultural Misunderstanding in Literary and Song Translation

Meghann Cassidy (ed.), Stephanie Schwerter(ed.) . - Hannover : ibidem, 2025

This volume’s aim is to shed new light on cultural misunderstanding, examining both the obstacles and outcomes it can entail. In the field of literary and song translation in particular, cultural misunderstanding can engender compound and wide-ranging effects. Occurrences can lead to ambiguity, the distortion of source texts or the spread of false or potentially harmful cultural images. Still, these misunderstandings can also be fruitful, dynamic phenomena with highly creative potential.
