Description

Translation and Pragmatics aims at providing a fundamental grounding of key phenomena, theories and concepts in the field of pragmatics and of some of their manifestations both within and across languages and cultures. The originality of this textbook largely resides in its pedagogical approach which involves familiarising students with the pragmatic phenomena of deixis, speech acts, implicature and (im)politeness first and foremost through a systematic exposure to concrete, authentic data from a broad spectrum of texts and media (e.g., ads, memes, films, videogames) while showcasing how these phenomena are relayed in different types of translation. With activities , illustrative case studies, research and discussion points, summaries and further reading, this is an essential textbook for translation and intercultural communication students interested in the connections between translation and pragmatics.
