Abstract:

Legal translation is hallmarked by peculiarities revolving around
language intricacies, particular formulae, and system-specificity
issues. At present, there is a spectrum of legal corpora dedicated to
court-related topics and legislation, but there is no corpus composed
of private legal documents such as contracts and agreements. This book
wishes to bridge this gap by providing English-Italian comparable
corpora related to the domain of (general) terms and conditions of
service, together with a model for their use in the translation
classroom. It offers a novel contribution to the scientific community
as it makes corpora of private legal documents available for
consultation. In addition, it shows that legal corpora built by
following rigorous methods can become reliable tools in translator
training and, most likely, in translation practice. This book is for
students in Translation Studies, professional translators, researchers
and scholars in legal language and legal translation, as well as legal
practitioners and lawyers.
