This volume provides a critical examination of quality in the
interpreting profession by deconstructing the complex relationship
between professional norms and ethical considerations in a variety
of sociocultural contexts. Over the past two decades the profession
has compelled scholars and practitioners to take into account
numerous factors concerning the provision and fulfilment of
interpreting. Building on ideas that began to take shape during an
international conference on interpreter-mediated interactions,
commemorating Miriam Shlesinger, held in Rome in 2013, the book
explores some of these issues by looking at the notion of quality
through interpreters' self-awareness of norms at work across a
variety of professional settings, contextualising norms and quality
in relation to ethical behaviour in everyday practice.
Contributions from top researchers in the field create a
comprehensive picture of the dynamic role of the interpreter as it
has evolved, with key topics revisited by the addition of new
contributions from established scholars in the field, fostering
discussion and further reflection on important issues in the field
of interpreting. This volume will be key reading for scholars,
researchers, and graduate students in interpreting and translation
studies, pragmatics, discourse analysis, and multilingualism.
