Nolan James - Essays On Conference Interpreting - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: This book condenses the important lessons learned at key points during the author's 30 - year career as an intergovernmental conference interpreter and trainer seeking to define what constitutes good interpreting and how to develop the skills and abilities that are conducive to it as well as fostering practices and technologies that help to maintain high professional standards. The book places interpreting in its historical context as a time - honoured discipline and discusses the effect of modern technology on translating and interpreting identifying areas where it is most useful (electronic communications media broadcasting) while stressing that professional education and training of linguists are more important than reliance on technological shortcuts. The book is an invaluable resource to all those working or training in conference interpreting as well as being a stimulating read for those engaged in the wider work of interpreting.
