Specialized Languages and Graphic Art : Translating Specialized Discourse Intralingually and Intersemiotically, Paperback / softback Book

Specialized Languages and Graphic Art : Translating Specialized Discourse Intralingually and Intersemiotically Paperback / softback

Part of the New Trends in Translation Studies series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book addresses specialized translation, focusing on the forms of translation with the potential to make specialized languages more comprehensible and accessible, namely intralingual and intersemiotic translation.

The book offers strategies to assist both readers and translators in approaching specialized languages not only from a professional or academic perspective but also from a practical one, encouraging and promoting a new approach to facilitating their understanding of specialized languages.

In so doing, it demonstrates how the exploitation of graphic texts (whether static or animated) represents an invaluable instrument on both a pedagogical and social level.

Graphic communication is shown to assist in the drafting of various types of specialized documents to make them more accessible to the general public, thus proposing that graphic art might represent a more unbiased approach to specialized languages and, as a result, contribute to a more egalitarian distribution of knowledge.
