This book proposes a new approach to the study of discourse in
documentary film. It considers discourse as a basic factor of
translation (as well as contexts, agents, and practices) and draws
on the parallels between the disciplines of translating and
documentary making to perform a discourse analysis of documentaries
centering on migration. By relying on the concept of translation as
a heuristic tool, the author highlights the discursive mechanisms
of 18 documentaries on Latin American migration shown in the United
States by the Public Broadcasting Service series POV between 1996
and 2018. This interdisciplinary approach facilitates a holistic
analysis of documentary film discourse, while also raising
awareness of positive discourses of migration. The book will be of
interest to students and scholars involved in the study of
discourse, translation, documentary, television, and migration.
