Dialogue Interpreting by Ian Mason (9781900650212)

Description - Dialogue Interpreting by Ian Mason

Dialogue intrepreting includes what is variously referred to in English as Community, Public Service, Liaison, Ad Hoc or Bilateral Interpreting - the defining characteristic being interpreter-mediated communication in spontaneous face-to-face interaction. Viewing the interpreter as a gatekeeper, coordinator and negotiator of meanings within a three-way interaction, the descriptive studies included in this volume focus on issues such as role conflict, in-group loyalties, participation status, and relevance and the negotiation of face.
