ITTM012 Практика: Професия преводач
Анотация:
The module prepares students for the psycholinguistic and sociolinguistic problems of translation by providing the necessary knowledge about:
translation as a specific type of activity;
the role of the translator as an intermediary in the acts of intercultural communication;
the difficulties in translation arising because of differences in the social group, education, cultural environment, traditions or gender.
Students taking this module will be familiarised with the main psycholinguistic models in translation; with basic models of source text understanding and translation into a target language. They will learn how to apply the results of psycholinguistic research in specific cases of translation and how to analyse the translation difficulties resulting from differences in traditions, culture, social environment, etc.
