L Foran, 'Who’s Afraid of the Irish Language? The National-Philosophical Possibilities of a Lost Tongue' in C Fischer and A Mahon  (eds) "Philosophical Perspectives on Contemporary Ireland" (Routledge, 2019) pp.230-245

Ireland is an unusual post-colonial country in that few of its citizens speak its original language as their first tongue. On a daily basis just 1.7 percent of Irish residents speak Irish, whereas 12 % speak a language other than Irish or English.  What does this mean?  It would be crass to suggest that national or cultural identity rests only on the ability to speak one’s language, but it would be equally facile to pretend that the loss of a national language has no impact on one’s identity. Why did the (already small) number of Irish speakers rapidly decline with Irish independence from British rule? Why has a de jure bilingual state produced a de facto monolingual population?  And, more importantly what are the consequences of this situation: what does being Irish without Irish mean? 

Jacques Derrida describes nationalism as a ‘philosopheme’ and one that cannot be separated from questions of linguistic identity.  In this paper I draw on the work of Derrida and Barbara Cassin to describe the connection between nationalism, language and philosophy. I then go on to examine the role of the Irish language in imaginings of Irish identity and nationalism. I argue that Ireland’s strange and disjointed relationship to its own tongue provides hope for the most hospitable kind of nationalism and the most philosophical kind of identity.

Sidonius C. Sollius Apollinaris Sidonius, Die Briefe. Eingeleitet, übersetzt und erläutert von Helga Köhler, Stuttgart: Hiersemann 2014, XXXVII + 355 pp., ISBN 978-3-7772-1414-6, € 224 (hb). Die Briefe des Apollinaris Sidonius sind seit eh und je eine erstrangige Quelle für das Gallien des fünften Jahrhunderts und haben bis in den Humanismus hinein die europäische Literatur entscheidend beeinflusst. Als prototypi-sche Mischgestalt aus Aristokrat und Seelenhirt, römischem Präfekt und Bischof von Clermont, Hofpoet und liturgischem Autor ist Sidonius wesent-lich für unser Verständnis des spätantiken Christentums. Helga Köhler (K.) stellt ihn nun erstmals in einer mustergültigen Übersetzung seiner ganzen Korrespondenz dem deutschsprachigen Publikum vor. Dank ihrem wegwei-senden Kommentarband zum ersten Buch der Korrespondenz (Heidelberg 1995) ist K. eine der Urheberinnen der heutigen Sidonius-Renaissance. Das Buch enthält, neben der Übersetzung, eine Einleitung, eine Auswahl-Bibliographie und ein Namen-und Sachregister. Die Einleitung ist eine gekonnte, äußerst zugängliche Zusammenfassung unserer Kenntnis auf dem heutigen Stand der Wissenschaft. Binnen dreißig Seiten wird der Leser infor-miert über den Autor, seine Briefkunst und sein Nachleben. Zudem legt K. Rechenschaft ab über die Entscheidungen, die sie bei der Übersetzung getroffen hat. Einige, für die Übersetzung wichtige Aspekte möchte ich hier hervorheben. Die Sammlung von 147 Briefen in neun Büchern würdigt K. zu Recht als mehr als ein historisches Dokument, nämlich als ein sorgfältig angeleg-tes Gesamtkunstwerk aus Prosa und poetischen Einlagen, das Politik und Privatleben, Weltliches und Geistiges verbindet zu einem Kaleidoskop wech-selnder Stimmungen. Form und Sprache der Briefe stehen dabei stets gleich-rangig neben ihrem Informationsgehalt. Dem Stil des Sidonius gerecht zu werden war Hauptaufgabe dieser Über-setzung. Die sehr langen Perioden, die alle denkbaren Stil-und Gedankenfi-guren häufen, überforderten schon nachweisbar manche Zeitgenossen. K. hat sich für die weitestmögliche Nachbildung des Originals entschlossen, da die deutsche Syntax ja die Möglichkeit zu Schachtelsätzen bietet. Das Ergebnis ist eine vornehme, zuweilen leicht altertümliche, aber immer kristallklare Über-setzung. Die erfindungsreiche Wortwahl und der präzise Aufbau steuern den langen Atem, den der Leser braucht. Die Übersetzung wäre besonders dazu geeignet, vorgetragen zu werden. Bemerkenswert sind die poetischen Einla-gen, die K. virtuos gemäß der ursprünglichen Metren übersetzt.

В этом сборнике представлены материалы по истории духовного движения «Неопалимая купина», существовавшего в Румынской православной церкви в 1940–1950-е годы. В это движение входили монахи и богословы, университетские преподаватели и студенты, ученые и писатели, врачи и деятели искусства. Всех их объединяли жажда общей жизни по вере и радение о судьбе Румынской православной церкви в годы богоборческого коммунистического режима. Особое внимание члены движения «Неопалимая купина» уделяли совместному совершению Иисусовой молитвы и вхождению в традицию исихазма. [Перевод с румынского языка]

Quran translation into Western cultures is a high volatility intercultural act. In it many of the translator’s choices are not purely dictated by linguistic necessity alone, but, rather, are due to the Text’s shifting dynamic of reception, they are contextually overdetermined. Here the dialectic of the translator’s invisibility vs agency comes into sharp relief, as the translator’s discursive presence is overtly superimposed. The global context and extra-textual contradictions and fissures between the source and the receptive milieus necessitate that the translator come out of the shadows and heavily intervene, taking on a peacemaker role. Otherwise, his/her translation endeavour is superfluous at best, or aggravating to an already intense cross-cultural engagement at worst. Given the hard facts of today’s world, Quran translations have, out of necessity, become more exegetical in nature. Within this context, translation is literally about creating a new way for putative readership to access a Text that is central to the believer’s identity as well as the outsider’s understanding of a central religious tradition. This chapter sets out to examine English Quran translations that were published in the aftermath of 9/11 and the tension between worldviews that sprang to a global scale thereafter. In particular, it zooms in on recent renditions of the key term Islam and passages of the Original having a bearing on issues that could prove to be contentious and challenging. Against this global backdrop, all recent English Quran translations simply could not run the risk of going about it without intervening to accommodate for the contextual alongside the textual.

""The  article deals  with the  works  of Farid-al-Din  ‘Attar  (12–13  c.),  a  great  Sufi poet  who
played an important role in the formation of the Sufi literary tradition and Persian poetry. Attar
was the creator of the Sufi mathnawi poetic form, in which the philosophical basis and mystical
practices of Sufism are not presented by being plainly defined or by a description of the mystical
experience of the author, but are rather “shown” by means of a skillfully constructed sequence of
various  stories  and  parables.  The  article  addresses  problems  of  interpretation,  translation  and
commenting,  as  well  as  the  biographical,  philological,  metaphysical,  and  poetical  aspects  of
‘Attar’s  creative  work,  by  means    of  which  it  is  possible  to  see  beyond    the  surface  level  of
entertaining stories into the deeper levels of meaning.

"The Unknown Painter" is an antislavery short story that first appeared in the mid-1830s.  Its author, original place of publication, and date remain undetermined.  It concerns the Spanish artist Bartoleme Esteban Murillo and his black slave, the painter Sebastian Gomez.  This paper analyzes the nineteenth-century publication history of the story, its translation, and the ideologies of its revisions and republications.  The analysis pays particular attention to racial content, its revision in Frederick Douglass' Paper, the zombie sub-theme, and translations.

Mivel a lektorálás a szakmai gyakorlatban egyre inkább a minőség biztosításának nélkülözhetetlen eszközévé válik, immáron szükséges a szakemberek képzése is, akik kellő hozzáértéssel és tudatossággal végzik a munkát, nem csupán ösztöneikre, egyéni nyelvhasználatukra és személyes tapasztalataikra, hanem jól megalapozott ismeretekre építve dolgoznak. Lektorálásra nem feltétlenül születik az ember, és bár a szakmai tapasztalatok sokat segítenek, a lektori kompetencia valójában képzés útján, kidolgozott tanterv alapján is elsajátítható, így érdemes beépíteni a szakfordító hallgatók képzésébe. A jelen tanulmányban ezt a kijelentést kívánom alátámasztani a ELTE Fordító-és Tolmácsképző Tanszékén folyó lektorálási gyakorlatok tapasztalatai alapján. Elsősorban ismertetem a lektori kompetencia fejlesztésének létjogosultságát a fordítóképzésben, majd felvázolom azokat a módszertani ismereteket, amelyek a sikeres lektorképzés alapját képezhetik, beleértve a lektorálás értékelésének kérdéseit is. Bevezetés A fordítási szakmában a lektorálás ma már a minőség biztosításának egyre inkább elismert eszköze, szükségességét számos tapasztalat és szakirodalmi esettanulmány bizonyítja (például Eszenyi, 2017).

This paper explores the mechanisms of construction of ‘otherness’ at both the levels of language and content in Elfriede Jelinek’s text Die Schutzbefohlenen and in its English translation.
Firstly, Jean-François Lyotard’s critique of Hegel and conception of a politics of forgetting will be applied to the text as a productive tool to enrich a post-modern reading. In Heidegger and the “jews”, Lyotard introduces the “jews” as the unrepresentable excess of our identity, that unconceivable element which needs to be removed, exterminated, forgotten for a sense of unified, pure identity to be secured. Jelinek’s “wir”/“we” in Die Schutzbefohlenen, hovering between being and non-being, untimely beyond time and space, dissolving in water into nothingness, indeed embody the Lyotardian ‘forgotten’ that the West drowns in a desperate attempt to prevent this threat from coming to the surface to be seen, heard and disturb the illusion of an identity.
Secondly, the analysis will incorporate a queer perspective by applying Sara Ahmed’s concept of ‘spatial orientation’ and ‘normalisation of directions’ to highlight the way in which the textual references to movements reveal and challenge totalizing ideals of “sameness” and spatial identity (nationalism).
In this respect, the paper pays close attention to linguistic mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion and to the tension/interplay between patterns of unification and fragmentation. These include: alternations of the particles “ein-“ and “aus-” and the personal pronouns “wir”, “Sie”, “du”, “ihr”; the conflation between an all-encompassing divine and bureaucratic authority; play on words in revealing the hypocrisy of democratic ideals.
These aspects are analysed by comparing the text with the English translation (Charges (The Supplicants)), highlighting potential translation challenges, gains, losses and the way the two languages use their linguistic and cultural specificities in ‘othering’ and ‘queering’.
Lyotard’s forgotten “jews” and Ahmed’s displaced others emerge as productive elements which, applied to the German and English texts, enhance Jelinek’s disruption of any comforting, unifying pattern of identity and of those grand narratives of freedom and humanity that Europe holds dear, exposing their hidden yet dangerous mechanisms of selective inclusion and oppressive exclusion.

Jürgen Habermas und Talal Asad zählen zu den bedeutendsten Protagonisten des Diskurses um die postsäkulare Gesellschaft. In der vorliegenden Arbeit unternehme ich eine vergleichende Lektüre zentraler Schriften beider Autoren. Dabei versuche ich, möglichst präzise zu beschreiben, wie Habermas und Asad einen neuen Blickwinkel auf die Verhältnisbestimmung von Religion und Gesellschaft in der Gegenwart freigeben und plausibilisieren.
Einen zentralen Stellenwert schreibe ich der Tatsache zu, dass hierfür von beiden der Begriff der ‚Übersetzung‘ herangezogen wird. Ziel der Untersuchung ist es folglich, erste systematisierende Vorstöße bezüglich des Begriffspaars ‚Religion übersetzen‘ zu leisten. Dabei gilt es ein Bündel an Forschungsfragen zu beantworten: Wie wird der Begriff der Übersetzung verstanden? In welcher Art und Weise kommt Religion im Werk der Autoren zur Sprache? Auf welche Aspekte der Religion soll sich die Übersetzungsleistung beziehen? Wer sind die Subjekte dieser Übersetzung? Und schließlich, welche Chancen und Probleme bringen die beiden Ansätze für eine politiktheoretische Perspektive auf religiös-gesellschaftliche Fragestellungen mit sich?

There have been many studies on locating the developments and challenges encountered in the translation of Dalit literature and the numerous impacts introduced by translators, editors and publishers. But hardly any attempt has been made to understand how Dalit writers themselves understand the process of translation. This is important because they often work very closely with these agents, and yet their opinions seem to get lost in the nitty-gritties of translation studies. It is perhaps for this reason alone that Limbale’s response to his translator evinces out this need when he says ‘You are worrying about my books and I am worrying about my movement’. It seems that Dalit writers have a distinct understanding of the role and process of translation which needs a necessary extrapolation. This essay then makes an attempt to suggest a theoretical framework which Dalit writers seem to have in mind when they advocate a need for a ‘socially committed translator’. The expression ‘Socially...

Food is more than just a means of nourishment; it reflects the way human beings are influenced by the geographical space they inhabit. Diasporas and more general movements of people across time and space have allowed for the encounter and exchange of different culinary traditions. This has happened orally at first, and subsequently in written form. However, it is the invention of television and the Internet that has taken the sharing of culinary experiences to an entirely new level. Countless TV programmes revolve around food preparation and recipes. Nonetheless, food is not only the main theme of factual entertainment shows, but can also become an essential part of TV dramas and movies due to its ability to convey meaning though its culture-specificity. An excellent example of this is the Italian TV series Inspector Montalbano, which has been adapted from Andrea Camilleri’s many short stories and novels. Since the subtitled versions of the series have been successfully marketed at the international level, it is interesting to investigate how food, one of its topoi, has been dealt with in both British English (TT1) and American English (TT2) subtitled versions. The comparative analysis of these three datasets shows that Montalbano’s (and other characters’) attitudes to food and Italian-Sicilian traditional cuisine are expressed differently in the British and American versions. While the former tends to be more source-oriented in its attempt to convey the peculiarities of Italian and Sicilian food, the latter appears generally more target-oriented. Most importantly, when the American version does retain the Italian and Sicilian culinary terms, they are not always transferred as accurately as could be hoped for. Possible reasons for this may be that it targets an audience that may be mostly made up of Italian-Americans and/or people with some working knowledge of Italian. This study confirms the need for extensive reception studies on audiovisual texts that use the same language but address different cultures.

This essay discusses the state-of-the-art in translational stylistics, looking at 1) different perspectives to the study of style in translation; 2) different concepts of style applied to translations, and 3) different methodological approaches to the study of style in translation. The article explains why traditional understandings of literary style can not account for translators' stylistic choices and offers a working definition of translator style.

En colaboración con Carmen Pérez Romero, se ofrece, junto a un estudio introductorio y una amplia bibliografía, una traducción en dos versiones de un texto esencial en el romanticismo inglés. Por un lado se presenta una versión poética de estrofas de nueve versos que intenta reflejar lo más fielmente posible la forma e el encanto original. Se acompaña de otra en prosa poética para captar el contenido del poema.

There are a number of arguments that support the idea of translating non-fiction to be a “double challenge”, considering the time invested in research, getting all the facts, historical names and quotations right in two languages, and giving the point of view that the author originally gave. On the other hand, some of the aspects of translating prove that translating non-fiction should be easier than translating other areas of literary translation, primarily fiction. The translator of non-fiction has more space for explanations, comments and directions for his readers; he can usually keep a constant tone throughout the work and is usually asked to translate repeatedly for the same customers. And, to return to that popular misconception that literary translation only relates to works of fiction, the translation of non-fiction has an extremely long and respectable history: it is certainly literature. It is just the rarity of it today that may make it seem “stranger than fiction”.

This is a short poem by Muḥammad ibn ʿAlī al-Ṣabbān (d. 1206/1791) translated from the original Arabic into English verse. The poem is a concise, technical list of the ten essentials aspects of any science. It is intended to help students memorize the outline of the topic, while a teacher's additional commentary would be needed to really understand the content and meaning of the ten essentials.

譯者序

巴利語《律藏》（Vinaya II 139）記載，佛陀要求大家「以各自的語言」來學習佛法。印度最高的婆羅門階級以梵語作為標準語言，僅有少數的上層社會人士使用，然而在兩千五百年前，印度各地已經發展出各種方言，普羅大眾不懂梵語。佛陀的規定意味著，他所開示的法義被弘揚到各地時，應以當地的語言來教導，以方便一般人了解與學習。
從公元第二世紀開始，印度佛典傳到中國，翻譯成漢文，然後傳到越南、朝鮮、日本，這是人類文化史上的大事。過去一千多年，漢文作為東亞各國的通用書面語文，自有其不可抹滅的貢獻與功能。相對於現代的中文白話文，古代通用的漢文稱為文言文。近百年間，文言文在幾乎所有的用途上已被白話文取代。在現代華人世界，一般大眾能閱讀白話文，多數人卻對文言文感到困難。
歐洲宗教改革明年將屆滿五百年。姑且不論其複雜的歷史功過，但可以肯定宗教改革加速了《聖經》被廣泛譯成各族語文，讓歐洲民眾可以普遍接觸《聖經》，而非少數懂拉丁文的社會菁英才能閱讀，也不會被極少數懂希伯來文與希臘文等聖經語文的學者所壟斷。如此，一般基督徒才有信奉其宗教的具體依據。佛經若能譯成現代中文（白話文），將可讓為數眾多的中文讀者有機會了解佛陀的教誨，而非少數精通文言文的社會菁英才能讀懂佛經，也不會被極少數懂梵、巴等佛典語文的學者所壟斷。佛經是全人類的珍貴文化資產，尤其巴利語的《長部》、《中部》、《相應部》、《增支部》是唯一保存於古印度語言且卷帙完整的初期佛經，如果能精確地翻譯成現代白話文，對佛教有興趣的廣大中文讀者將得以一窺堂奧，宛如親身聆聽佛陀的教導。

Subtitling of televised foreign‐language material not only changes language; it also switches from the spoken to the written mode, and it presents itself ‘in real time’, as a dynamic text type. Hence, due to the complex, ‘diagonal’ nature of subtitling, the subtitler must possess the musical ears of an interpreter, the stylistic sensitivity of a literary translator, the visual acuteness of a film cutter, and the esthetic sense of a book designer.The author discusses subtitling in the context of language transfer, and suggests nine basic fields to consider when creating ‐ and evaluating ‐ interlingual subtitles for television and video.

Translation from Ukrainian.
Stolen Name, Why Rusyns Turned into Ukrainians is one of his publications where history studies are combined with linguistic research, which made it possible to provide a complete picture of the Ukrainian history through the life of the name of our nation, starting from the earliest years to the present-day.
The books reveals precise facts from the history of Ukraine and Russia which make it clear, how easily imperial historians falsely interpreted the facts and even rewrote them deliberately for political purposes of the ruling regime.Y. Nakonechnyi's Stolen Name is a book of great power of persuasion, all statements supported by references to authentic materials and scientific research. Being a profound study, it is nonetheless read as an adventure story, full of exciting events and discoveries. Written in 2001, it seems to contain answers to a great number of questions of today, not only for Ukraine and Russia but also for the whole world.

As the advent of the 'postmodern' and theoretically appointed 'postcolonial' ages have brought to the forefront of academic attention, the global history of First Peoples has been mired and desecrated by countless aspects of Judaeo-Christian colonialism and imperialism which have persisted far longer than they ever should have. And of course, as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis posits that languages not only influence but may even entirely construct our realities and the perspectives they are formed from -something which colonial forces were obviously acutely aware of when they imposed linguistic hegemonies to overtake, erase, assimilate and replace First Peoples’ languages and beliefs with languages such as English, French and Spanish and the socio-political and religious realities embedded within them- it follows logically that the creative and activist translation of these colonial histories and the poetry, writings, myths and stories which were oftentimes partially born as an anticolonial reaction to them, as well as the cultural revival of ancient traditional practices and belief systems to counter these sordid realities, are necessarily a quintessential part of properly honouring these First Peoples and cultures of the Rainbow Tribes and Medicine Wheel, indeed to all of existence.


As such, self-translation is even moreso primordial to the emancipation from neocolonial realities Native, Métis, Inuit and multiethnic/diasporic peoples in general find themselves embedded within -much against their own will- since it allows for a direct expression of their  realities and experiences within eurocentrically linguistic constructs which, without their own anticolonial and activist backgrounds and the ability to self-determine the semantic fields and parameters of what is originally being expressed in their poetry, writings, stories and myths, has otherwise often been lost -or at the very least significantly distorted and/or corrupted/repurposed- by translators who, even with the best of intentions, could not possibly have fully rendered the depth, intensity, complexity and soulful nature of an experience which they had not personally lived, and had likely been quite detached from in terms of their understanding of it.

Research problem: For many organizations, high-quality technical information products for global audiences are becoming an increasingly important part of doing business. Component content management attempts to facilitate the creation of such information products. A growing number of technical communication groups are adopting the strategies, standards, and technologies of component content management. This integrative literature review examines the impacts of component content management on the quality of multilingual information products. Research questions: How are the impacts of component content management on multilingual quality conceptualized? How do best practices address the impacts of component content management on multilingual quality? Literature review: Two divides characterize component content management and multilingual quality. The divide between the academy and industry is marked by different levels of interest in quality, particularly its practical aspects. The divide between technical communication and technical translation and localization is defined by the lack of communication between the representatives of each field that leads to a narrower understanding of multilingual quality. Therefore, a comprehensive picture of the impacts of component content management on multilingual quality requires combining the perspectives of scholarly and industry authors in technical communication and technical translation and localization. Activity Theory provides an approach for bridging the divides and creating such a comprehensive picture. Methodology: To provide such a comprehensive picture, I systematically reviewed literature sources on component content management and multilingual quality in scholarly and trade sources in technical communication and technical translation and localization, then classified all selected publications by their relationships to the research questions, themes within them, and characteristics of the source. Results and conclusions: Contradictory conceptual understandings exist on the impacts of component content management on multilingual quality. While some sources praise benefits of component content management, particularly increased consistency and the promise to provide additional adaption possibilities, other sources focus on the challenges of using it, especially a lack of context, text segmentation, and human resources. Although best practices offer some suggestions for overcoming these challenges, the suggestions do not resolve them sufficiently and do not reconcile the contradiction between consistency and adaptation of information products based on the different expectations of audiences around the globe. This study is limited by the fact that it primarily focused on English language publications. Future research needs to be conducted collaboratively by stakeholders in academia and industry and from technical communication and technical translation and localization.

Journeys of Daniel Naborowski to France (between 1605−1608), except for the tour of diplomatic duty on behalf of Janusz Radziwiłł, were also an occasion for coming into contact with poets from the court of Henry IV. One of the popular literary movements of that time was moral poetry also called moral tetrastichs (established by Guy de Pibrac). Among the members of this current were Pierre Matthieu and Claude Guichard, aulic poets and historians. The aim of this article is to show resemblances and parallels between writings of the above mentioned poets and poems by DanielNaborowski (Impresa: "Calando poggiando", "The Brevity of Life") and pieces ascribed to him ("On this", "Secular Alternation").

The Dictionary of Untranslables: A Philosophical Lexicon, translation of the Vocabulaire européen des philosophies (2004) is an invaluable resource for researchers in philosophy and the humanities more generally. Gathering the work of over 150 philosophers, this encyclopaedic project focuses on a series of philosophical terms that prove difficult to translate, disclosing their historical and linguistic intricacies. This review aims to provide a succinct analysis of its structure and rationale. It is suggested that a gap exists between the framing of the Dictionary in relation to a critical European cultural politics and the kind of philosophy it performs – a highly erudite contribution to both the history of philosophy and to philology. It is further argued that this does not get simpler with the edition of this book into English and the potential ‘globalisation’ of its scope.

Il volume deve la sua origine a un intento pratico (e didattico): creare un percorso d’insegnamento interdisciplinare in grado di fornire una serie di prospettive sul tradurre, ma senza una vocazione esclusivamente teorica. L’esperienza, giunta alla terza edizione, è diventata occasione di confronto tra studiosi di diversa formazione: ne è nata una raccolta di saggi che illustra come i confini della traduzione (di qui la scelta del titolo) siano confusi e ‘porosi’, e negli ultimi vent’anni si stiano ancor più diversificando e problematizzando.
I contributi fotografano la ricchezza di sfumature che connota qualsiasi discorso sulla traduzione: un campo al quale si interessano discipline e approcci ben altrimenti strutturati – linguistica, didattica della lingua, letteratura e critica letteraria, filosofia, antropologia… – e da cui sono emersi profili professionali nuovi, come quelli di localizzatore e di mediatore culturale.

Focusing on two films by Jean-Luc Godard that feature the work of the Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish, this essay analyzes the rhetorical effects of Godard’s choice to subtitle, translate, or speak over Arabic speech and highlights Godard’s decades-long working relationship with the translator Elias Sanbar, who also translated Darwish’s work from Arabic into French.  It argues that both filmmaker and poet in Notre musique (2004) are engaged in auto-quotation in that Godard is alluding to his earlier films, particularly to Ici et ailleurs (1976), his extensive “rethinking” of his 1970 trip to film the Palestinian intifada, and in that Darwish restates his published commentary from the 1990s in a staged interview with an actress playing an Israeli journalist.  It analyzes as well the political implications of Darwish’s poetry being recited in English translation by Native American actors in Sarajevo’s destroyed library.

At the turn of the century, the explosion of over-the-top (OTT) services such as Amazon Prime, HBO Now, Hulu and Netflix, along with the never-ending production of a wide variety of serialized formats, have swiftly raised the demand for AV content localisation across the globe. In the gargantuan void produced by the fast pace of technological and cinematic changes, while Language Service Providers (LSPs) were exploring viable options offered by new technology, amateur subtitlers around the globe were already forging alternative, internet-based localisation workflows, clockwork, perfect mechanisms able to deliver hundreds of fansubs within unprecedented tight turnaround times. This chapter will provide an account of the state of the art of amateur practices around the globe to date.

The present study reflects the combined experience of the authors as teachers and translators in the fertile area of cross-cultural studies of law and international communication. It is based on postgraduate courses, the LawLab: Communicating Legal English (2013) and doctoral seminars held at the Department of Human and Social Sciences, International University 'Stranieri' of Perugia.
