Description

Explore the changing role of translators in a globalized world with Representing Translation from Bloomsbury. This academic collection examines how translation has moved from being an unseen task to a visible part of our intercultural landscape. Through the lens of contemporary media, the book explores how translation is presented in film, television, commercials, and social media.
