Interpreting as Translanguaging cover

The Element provides a new understanding and theoretical perspective of the interpretation from the innovative approach of translanguaging.

This Element traces the emergence and historical development of the key concepts and basic tenets of translanguaging and interpreting followed by reviews of the relevant literature. It also provides the theoretical and methodological implications of this perspective.Drawing on the emerging literature in translanguaging theory and research, the Element provides a comprehensive analysis of the embedded model of translanguaging-in-interpreting and interpreting-in-translanguaging from theoretical and practical perspectives, buttressed by evidence from an exploratory empirical investigation. To achieve this goal, the authors first trace the emergence and historical development of the key concepts and basic tenets of translanguaging and interpreting separately and then combined. This is followed by reviews of relevant literature, synthesizing how translanguaging theories and research methods can be applied in specific domains of interpreting studies, such as community and public service interpreting. An integrated account of translanguaging and interpreting is proposed and elaborated. The theoretical and methodological implications of this integrative perspective are teased out, with a view to illuminating interpreting theory, pedagogy and instruction.
