This bestselling coursebook introduces current understanding about
culture and provides a model for teaching culture to translators,
interpreters and other mediators. The approach is
interdisciplinary, with theory from Translation Studies and beyond,
while authentic texts and translations illustrate intercultural
issues and strategies adopted to overcome them. This new (third)
edition has been thoroughly revised to update scholarship and
examples and now includes new languages such as Arabic, Chinese,
German, Japanese, Russian and Spanish, and examples from
interpreting settings. This edition revisits the chapters based on
recent developments in scholarship in intercultural communication,
cultural mediation, translation and interpreting. It aims to
achieve a more balanced representation of written and spoken
communication by giving more attention to interpreting than the
previous editions, especially in interactional settings. Enriched
with discussion of key recent scholarly contributions, each
practical example has been revisited and/ or updated. Complemented
with online resources, which may be used by both teachers and
students, this is the ideal resource for all students of
translation and interpreting, as well as any reader interested in
communication across cultural divides. Additional resources are
available on the Routledge Translation Studies Portal:
