Description: |
With contributions from world-class specialists this first book-length work looks at translation issues in forensic linguistics, where accuracy and cultural understandings play a prominent part in the legal process. |
Synopsis: |
In a modern world with its growing internationalization in trade, commerce, business, science and culture, generating an increasing need for communication and contact between legal cultures is the paramount phenomenon. By addressing the major linguistic and legal issues arising in legal translation in an exemplary fashion the book presents a representative and scientifically-based overview of the major issues in this field of contact between two disciplines and an indispensable introduction to the field for scholars, practitioners and students alike. The individual chapters, written by an international intersection of egregious scholars, teachers and practitioners in the field with competencies and experience in the field, meet the increasing demand for a scientifically-based overview of the topic, ranging from the basis of translation difficulties in deeper differences between legal cultures and the effect of translation on legal systems via solutions offered in specific intercultural settings such as the EU to down-to-earth suggestions for handling specific translational problems in mediating between two concrete languages. |
