Abstract:

This volume is intended as an innovating reader for both interpreting
practitioners as well as scholars, engaging with the multifaceted question
addressed in the title “Why linking up with video?”. The chapters in this
volume deal with this question from different perspectives. On the one hand,
the volume continues the ongoing discussion on the pros and cons of
video-based interaction for the interpreting profession, exploring the
implications and applications when interpreters and their clients "link up"
through video technology. On the other hand, the chapters also explore the
potential of video technology for research on interpreting, hence raising the
question in which way high-quality video recordings of interpreters in the
booth, participants involved in interpreter-mediated talk, etc. may be
instrumental in gaining new insights. In this sense, the volume strongly ties
in with the fast-growing field of multimodal (interaction) studies, which
makes use of video recordings to study the relationship between verbal and
nonverbal resources, such as gestures, postural orientation, gaze and head
movements, in the construction of meaning in communication.
