Reihe: Translation, Interpreting and Transfer

The ever-shifting
terrain of Translation Studies
Since the
inception of Translation Studies in the 1970s, its researchers have held
regular metareflections. Largely based on the assessment of translation and interpreting
as two distinct but related modes of language mediation, each with its own
research culture, these intradisciplinary debates have sought to take stock of
the state of research within an ever-expanding discipline in search of
(institutional) identity and autonomy. Recharting Territories proposes
a more widespread and systematic intradisciplinary approach to researching
translational phenomena, one which can be applied at various analytical levels
– theoretical, conceptual, methodological, pragmatic – and emphasize both
similarities and differences between subdisciplines. Such an approach, rather
than consolidating a territorial attitude on the part of scholars, aims to
raise awareness of the ever-shifting terrain on which Translation Studies stands.
