Abstract:

What does it take to be a legal translator? What is expected of legal
translation professionals in the public and private sectors? Following recent
developments in the field, there is a need to take stock of professional
settings, skills and related training needs. This volume offers a systematic
overview of the diverse professional profiles within legal translation and the
wide range of communicative situations in which legal translators play their
roles as mediators. Contexts of professional practice have been classified
into three main categories, which give shape to the three parts of the book:
(1) legal translation in the private sector; (2) legal translation for
national public institutions; and (3) legal translation at international
organizations. Practical concerns within each of these settings are analysed
by experts of diverse backgrounds, including several heads of institutional
translation teams. Commonalities and differences between contexts are
identified as a means of gaining a comprehensive understanding of this
multifaceted and dynamically changing profession.
