Abstract:

This collection of essays addresses translation as an evolving thread that
metaphorically represents the essence of contemporary society. As translation
is the main tool for global information flow, the constant necessity of
negotiating meanings evokes the complex issues of contact, interaction and
change. Starting from a theoretical overview of Translation Studies, the
volume explores the development and main changes that have characterized the
field in the contemporary world, with a specific focus on the concepts of
translation as hybridity, as a basis for sustaining intercultural
communication and translation as cultural mediation. The essays provide an
updated look at English/Italian translation across genres and cover a wide
range of topics including linguistic typology; language appropriation,
adaptation, manipulation and rewriting in literature and music; elusiveness
and ambiguity in legal texts; humour and culture-bound language in audiovisual
translation.
