Learning outcomes
|
The course will introduce the students to the fundamentals of interpreting studies. The topics covered include typology of interpreting, interpreting strategies (in particular anticipation and note-taking), the stages of the interpreting process and ethics applied to interpreting. The course further introduces the students to the major interpreting models, namely the efforts models by Daniel Gile and the theory of sense by Danica Seleskovitch. The theory is then applied in practice. The course also deals with procedures for responding to an error made by the interpreter or the speaker, for coping with figurative language, quotations etc. The course is a prerequisite for interpreting seminars.
The students will learn the basics of the theory behind consecutive and simultaneous interpreting as well as the procedures used in these interpreting modes. The students will also be able to apply the theory in interpreting practice. Moreover, students will learn to appreciate how theory and methodology may be useful for practice.
