Authorizing Translation: The IATIS Yearbook (The IATIS Yearbook)
by Michelle WoodsAuthorizing Translation applies ground-breaking research on literary translation to examine the intersection between Translation Studies and literary criticism, rethinking ways in which analyzing translation and the authority of the translator can provide nuanced micro and macro readings of literary work and the worlds through which it moves. A substantial introduction surveys the field and suggests possible avenues for future research, while six case-study-based chapters by a new generation of Literature and Translation Studies scholars focus on the question of authority by asking: Who authors translations? Who authorizes translations? What authority do translations have in different cultural contexts? What authority does Literary Translation Studies have as a field? The hermeneutic role of the translator is explored through the literary periods of Romanticism, Modernism, and Postmodernism, and through different cultures and languages. The case studies focus on data-centered analysis of reviews of translated literature, ultimately illustrating how the translator’s authority creates and hybridizes literary cultures. Authorizing Translation will be of interest to students and researchers of Literary Translation and Translation Studies. Additional resources for Translation and Interpreting Studies are available on the Routledge Translation Studies Portal: http://cw.routledge.com/textbooks/translationstudies.
Authorship and Publishing in the Humanities (Elements in Publishing and Book Culture)
by Marcel KnöchelmannWhat is the point of publishing in the humanities? This Element provides an answer to this question. It builds on a unique set of quantitative and qualitative data to understand why humanities scholars publish. It looks at both basic characteristics such as publication numbers, formats, and perceptions, and differences of national academic settings alongside the influences of the UK's Research Excellence Framework and the German Exzellenzinitiative. The data involve a survey of more than 1,000 humanities scholars and social scientists in the UK and Germany, allowing for a comprehensive comparative study, and a series of qualitative interviews. The resulting critique provides scholars and policy makers with an accessible and critical work about the particularities of authorship and publishing in the humanities. And it gives an account of the problems and struggles of humanities scholars in their pursuit of contributing to discourse, and to be recognised with their intellectual work.

Autism and the Edges of the Known World
by Olga BogdashinaIn this intelligent and incisive book, Olga Bogdashina explores old and new theories of sensory perception and communication in autism. Drawing on linguistics, philosophy, neuroscience, psychology, anthropology and quantum mechanics, she looks at how the nature of the senses inform an individual's view of the world, and how language both reflects and constructs that view. Examining the 'whys' and 'hows' of the senses, and the role of language, Olga Bogdashina challenges common perceptions of what it means to be 'normal' and 'abnormal'. In doing so she shows that autism can help to illuminate our understanding of what it means to be human, and of how we develop faculties that shape our cognition, language, and behaviour. In the final chapter, she explores phenomena often associated with the paranormal - including premonitions, telepathy and déjà vu - and shows that these can largely be explained in natural terms. This book will appeal to anyone with a personal or professional interest in autism, including students and researchers, clinical practitioners, individuals on the autism spectrum and their families, teachers, speech and occupational therapists, and other professionals.

Autobiographische Schriften: Leben im Widerspruch Versuch einer intellektuellen Autobiographie. Nebenbei geschehen Erinnerungen. Texte aus dem Nachlass (René König Schriften. Ausgabe letzter Hand #18)
by René KönigGeboren im Kaiserreich, aufgewachsenen in der Weimarer Republik, geprägt vom Widerstand gegen den Nationalsozialismus und den Jahren der Emigration in der Schweiz, kehrte René König 1953 nach Deutschland zurück und wurde zu einem der Wiederbegründer der deutschen Soziologie. Die 1980 zuerst veröffentlichte Autobiographie "Leben im Widerspruch" beschreibt die einzelnen Etappen dieses Lebensweges, die Schulzeit in Danzig mit seinem polnischen Hinterland, die Studienjahre in Wien, Berlin und Paris und die vielfältige Tätigkeit als akademischer Lehrer in Europa, Amerika und Asien, die Reisen des jungen Studenten in die Länder des Nahen Ostens, die Begegnung mit der Kultur Siziliens, Erfahrungen als Betreuer eines bundesdeutschen Entwicklungshilfeprojektes in Afghanistan und die Auseinandersetzung mit den indianischen Kulturen im Südwesten der USA. Der zweite, bisher unveröffentlichte Text entstammt einer im Nachlass befindlichen unvollendeten Autobiographie, die mehr persönlich gehalten werden sollte und den Charakter von "Erinnerungen" hat. An ihr hat René König bis ungefähr 1990 gearbeitet. Der Titel "Nebenbei geschehen" stammt von ihm. Behandelt werden in diesen Kapiteln die Lebensabschnitte in Danzig, Berlin und in Zürich.
Automated Detection of Media Bias: From the Conceptualization of Media Bias to its Computational Classification
by Timo SpindeThis Open Access book explores the automated identification of media bias, particularly focusing on bias by word choice in digital media. The increasing prevalence of digital information presents opportunities and challenges for analyzing language, with cultural, geographic, and contextual factors shaping how content is portrayed. Despite the interdisciplinary nature of media bias research across fields like linguistics, psychology, and computer science, existing work often tackles the problem from limited perspectives, lacking comprehensive frameworks and reliable datasets. The book aims to advance the field by addressing these gaps and proposing a systematic approach to media bias detection. It develops feature-based and deep-learning approaches for automated bias detection, including a BERT-based model and MAGPIE, a multi-task learning model. These methods demonstrate improved performance on established benchmarks, showcasing the potential of deep learning in detecting media bias. Finally, the author addresses the practical applications of automated bias detection, such as enhancing news reading with forewarning messages, text annotations, and political classifiers, and examines the impact of bias on social media engagement.

Automating Translation (Routledge Introductions to Translation and Interpreting)
by Joss Moorkens Andy Way Séamus LankfordTranslation technology is essential for translation students, practising translators, and those working as part of the language services industry, but looming above others are the tools for automating translation: machine translation and, more recently, generative AI based on large language models (LLMs).This book, authored by leading experts, demystifies machine translation, explaining its origins, its training data, how neural machine translation and LLMs work, how to measure their quality, how translators interact with contemporary systems for automating translation, and how readers can build their own machine translation or LLM. In later chapters, the scope of the book expands to look more broadly at translation automation in audiovisual translation and localisation. Importantly, the book also examines the sociotechnical context, focusing on ethics and sustainability. Enhanced with activities, further reading and resource links, including online support material on the Routledge Translation studies portal, this is an essential textbook for students of translation studies, trainee and practising translators, and users of MT and multilingual LLMs.

Automation in Communication: The Ideological Implications of Language Machines (Routledge Studies in Sociolinguistics)
by Lionel WeeBy drawing on multiple examples from healthcare, religion, service encounters and poetry, Lionel Wee presents rich insights into the use of automation in communication through a posthumanist lens. As communication becomes increasingly automated, the use of automation creates significant conceptual challenges for ideologies about language, beliefs about the nature of language, as well as assumptions about the roles that interpretation, anthropomorphism, and folk theories of mind play when language is used in communication. This book unravels the ideological implications of automation in communication and provides a new theoretical ground to address the major issues raised by automation. Wee discusses the importance of thinking carefully about how we identify and distinguish the roles of speaker and hearer. He also argues that we re-evaluate our understanding of the relationship between language and community.This book will be vital to students interested in studying the intersections of AI, language and communication, as well as researchers working in communication studies, linguistics and the broader sociology of language in the age of technological change.
