Traduzione specialistica lingua inglese
A.A. 2018/2019
Obiettivi formativi
Nel corso, articolato in due unità didattiche di 20 ore ciascuna, in un primo momento si prenderanno in esame e si discuteranno alcuni dei problemi fondamentali al centro dei Translation Studies, non solo in termini teorici ma considerandone anche la rilevanza rispetto alla prassi della traduzione, grazie al lavoro di analisi e di traduzione svolto su testi giornalistici, accademici e tecnici.
La seconda parte del corso sarà dedicata alla traduzione del discorso giuridico-legale. In particolare saranno esaminate le problematiche salienti della traduzione giuridica ai diversi livelli (discorso, sintassi, fraseologia, terminologia) e le difficoltà derivanti dalle differenze di ordine giuridico ed interculturale tra i vari paesi e ordinamenti, discutendo alcune possibili soluzioni nella prospettiva della prassi professionale
