    Book description

    As digital convergence marks the transition from print to screen culture, translation plays an increasingly important role of in the production and dissemination of the news. The translation of information in the news media is a pervasive set of practices that affects the daily consumption of the news and a topic of relevance to scholars in several areas of the humanities and the social sciences. This book provides a wide-ranging and accessible introduction to research in news media translation practices, products and processes, illustrating and discussing historical, theoretical and descriptive perspectives. Inter- and multi-disciplinary research spans fields such as Translation Studies, Linguistics, Journalism and Media Studies, and includes approaches from Critical Discourse Analysis and narrative theory to Systemic Functional Linguistics and Corpus Linguistics. The book also offers first-hand analyses of news texts in English and Italian, approaching news translation from an ethnomethodological perspective.

    Reviews

    ‘… an extremely useful overview, and a convincing practical exemplification, of the conceptual and methodological tools that can be brought to bear in the study of such an elusive object as translation in the news media.’

    Giuseppe Palumbo Source: Contrastive Pragmatics

    ‘… Zanettin’s introduction to news media translation offers an in-depth historical account and an analytical method most likely to reveal the 'reality' behind reported events, as far as it can be.’

    Donald R. Riccomini Source: Society for Technical Communication
