Linguistic minorities are everywhere, and they are diverse. In this context, linguistic mediation activities – whether translation or interpreting – are key to the social inclusion of any kind of linguistic minority. In most societies autochthonous linguistic minorities coexist with foreignspeaking minorities and people with (or without) disabilities who rely linguistically or medially adapted on texts to access information. The present volume draws on this broad understanding of the concept of linguistic minorities to explore some of the newest developments in the field of translation studies and linguistics. The articles are structured around three main axes: • accessibility of content, especially audiovisual translation • intralingual translation, including initiatives regarding plain language, easy-to-read and easy language • mediation for minorities in a broader sense and language ideologies.

The Routledge Handbook of Translation Technology and Society offers the first comprehensive and critical exploration of translation technologies in the context of globalised multilingual societies within an increasingly AI-dominated world. This handbook calls for a fundamental rethinking of traditional approaches to translation, examining the ethical, ideological, socioeconomic, and environmental implications of digital tools and practices, such as professional AI-driven translation, ‘everyday’ machine translation, crowdsourcing translation, or platform-based translation work. It provides deep insights into pressing issues such as the commodification of language, inclusivity in so called low-resource languages, data colonialism, and labour exploitation. By questioning conventional science narratives and advocating for sustainable, inclusive, and equitable applications of translation technologies, this handbook empowers readers to engage critically with current trends and challenges in the digital age. Readers will benefit from an interdisciplinary approach that combines novel theoretical foundations with empirical research and practical case studies. It serves as a foundational reference and a springboard for (critical) future research in an evolving – sociotechnical – translation ecosystem where the blurring boundaries between human and machinic agents foster new modes of translator-machine interaction. This handbook is an essential resource for academics, researchers, and professionals in translation studies, digital humanities, science and technology studies, or (digital) discourse studies.

Minorities and Conflict are prevailing topics in literature and translation. This volume analyses their occurrence by focussing on the key domains: censorship/manipulation, translation flows from the linguistic periphery, and reflections on self-expression. The case studies presented discuss (re)translations of authors such as Virginia Woolf and treat a wide variety of languages, such as Flemish literature in Czech or Russian translations of Estonian prose. They also treat relevant topics such as heteroglossia, de-colonialism, and self-translation. The texts in this volume were originally presented at the conference Translating Minorities and Conflict in Literature, held in June 2021. In an increasingly interconnected and complex global landscape they advocate transparency, accountability, and the preservation of linguistic diversity.

This collection explores the range of approaches and frameworks used in the study of minority languages and cultures in audiovisual translation (AVT), encouraging interdisciplinary conversations toward fostering linguistic diversity on screen. The volume is organized around five parts, looking at examples from across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, and China as well as issues around sign languages in AVT. Chapters explore innovative strategies in subtitling, dubbing, and fansubbing to address non-standard varieties, ethnolinguistic diversities, and multilingualism, among other key themes, across different forms of media. The volume also looks ahead to how the study and practice of AVT might be re-envisioned in relation to minority languages, societies, and cultures in the future. This book will be of interest to scholars in translation studies, audiovisual translation, media accessibility, and media studies.

Translations of the Bible take place in the midst of tension between politics, ideology and power. With the theological authority of the book as God’s Word, not focusing on the process of translating is stating the obvious. Inclinations, fluency and zeitgeist play as serious a role as translators’ person, faith and worldview, as do their vocabulary, poetics and linguistic capacity. History has seen countless retranslations of the Bible. What are the considerations according to which Biblical retranslations are being produced in current, 21st century, contexts? From retranslations of the Hebrew Bible to those of the Old and New Testaments, to mutual influences of Christian and Jewish translational traditions – the papers collected here all deal with the question of what is to be [re]gained with the production of a new translation where, at times, many a previous one has already existed.

In the field of Translation Studies no book-length work in English has yet been dedicated to the translation and circulation of migration literature. The authors of this volume seek to contribute to filling this gap through a detailed study of texts belonging to a variety of literary genres and engaging with the phenomenon of migration in different parts of the world. Not only will the challenges met by translators be discussed, but the different ways in which the translated texts travel from one cultural sphere to another will also be explored. The focus lies on the themes “migration and politics”, “migration and society”, as well as “the experience of migration in words, music and images”.

Volume 1: Translations of the Bible take place in the midst of tension between politics, ideology and power. With the theological authority of the book as God’s Word, not focusing on the process of translating is stating the obvious. Inclinations, fluency and zeitgeist play as serious a role as translators’ person, faith and worldview, as do their vocabulary, poetics and linguistic capacity. History has seen countless retranslations of the Bible. What are the considerations according to which Biblical retranslations are being produced in current, 21st century, contexts? From retranslations of the Hebrew Bible to those of the Old and New Testaments, to mutual influences of Christian and Jewish translational traditions – the papers collected here all deal with the question of what is to be [re]gained with the production of a new translation where, at times, many a previous one has already existed. Volume 2: Times are changing, and with them, the norms and notions of correctness. Despite a wide-spread belief that the Bible, as a “sacred original,” only allows one translation, if any, new translations are constantly produced and published for all kinds of audiences and purposes. The various paradigms marked by the theological, political, and historical correctness of the time, group, and identity and bound to certain ethics and axiomatic norms are reflected in almost every current translation project. Like its predecessor, the current volume brings together scholars working at the intersection of Translation Studies, Bible Studies, and Theology, all of which share a special point of interest concerning the status of the Scriptures as texts fundamentally based on the act of translation and its recurring character. It aims to breathe new life into Bible translation studies, unlock new perspectives and vistas of the field, and present a bigger picture of how Bible [re]translation works in society today.

Eugene A. Nida is one of the pioneers and founders of modern translation theory, coining the terms dynamic equivalence and formal equivalence, and energetically promoting the former, though in his latter years preferring the term functional equivalence. Originally formulated for the Bible Translation efforts amongst people groups without the Bible, Nida’s theories of translation have also been widely influential in Translation Studies, making this presentation of Eugene A. Nida’s life (1914–2011) and assessment of his works especially timely and significant. Stefan Felber is a German Old Testament scholar, former seminary professor, and author of the (German only) Wesen und Würde des Wortes. Biblisch-theologische Grundlagen für das Verständnis von Sprache und Kommunikation (The Nature and Dignity of the Word. Biblical-Theological Foundations for Understanding Language and Communication), in: Zwischen Babel und Jerusalem – Aspekte von Sprache und Übersetzung, among other works. As such, he is uniquely qualified to offer this fair-minded and masterful, yet critical, evaluation of Nida’s model of translation, doing so from a rich variety of disciplines, including exegesis, theology, philology, and philosophies of language. Whether one agrees or disagrees with either Nida or Felber, I highly recommend this rigorous and wide-ranging exposition for advancing informed dialogue and promoting further understanding and advances in Translation Studies. Professor Tom McCormick, Tyndale University & College, Toronto Although the theory of Dynamic (or Functional) Equivalence was the most widely used method in global Bible translation after the Second World War, there has been no comprehensive study of its foundations and how it was developed by Eugene Nida. Filling this gap is one of the great merits of Felber’s study. Felber, while showing great respect for Nida, critically evaluates Dynamic Equivalence from various perspectives: exegetical, theological, philosophical, and linguistic. This multi-dimensional, nuanced approach provides the reader with thought-provoking and helpful insights that further the discussion in important ways. Felber’s study is a must-read for all who deal with language and translation in theology and the church, in Bible translation, and mission! Prof. Dr. Markus Zehnder, Internationale Hochschule Bad Liebenzell / Evangelische theologische Fakulteit Leuven / Ansgarskolen Kristiansand Stefan Felber’s Toward a Science of Translating? is a landmark study in Biblical Translation Theory, focussing on Eugene Nida (1914–2011), who for many years was a central figure in the American Bible Society and the United Bible Societies. Nida has been described as “probably the world’s leading scholar on translation” and his theory of Dynamic or Functional Equivalence provided a leading paradigm for Bible translators for decades. In this thorough analysis of his work and its reception, Felber highlights a number of weaknesses as well as some strengths affiliated with Nida’s theory – promoting translation theory based on reader-oriented thought-for-thought patterns rather than traditional source-oriented analysis of textual form and content. Felber’s evaluation raises a critical question: Are facets of the biblical text pertaining to biblical language and hermeneutics, theology, and the transcendent downplayed in Nida’s addressee-oriented approach to translation? I hope this book will be widely read by translators, biblical scholars and others interested in translation of the Bible.
