Specialized Languages and Graphic Art: Translating Specialized Discourse Intralingually and Intersemiotically

di Michela Canepari (Autore)

Peter Lang International Academic Publishers, 2023

This book addresses specialized translation, focusing in particular on the forms of translation that might prove most useful for making specialized language more comprehensible and accessible, namely intralingual and intersemiotic translation. The book offers strategies to assist readers not only from a professional or academic perspective but also from a practical one, encouraging and promoting a new approach to the major specialized languages of English at a scholarly, social and didactic level. In doing so, it demonstrates how the exploitation of graphic texts (whether static or animated) represent an invaluable instrument on both a pedagogical and social level. Graphic communication is shown to assist in the drafting of various types of specialized documents to make them more available to the general public, thus proposing that graphic art might represent the first step towards a more unbiased approach to specialized languages and, as a result, a more egalitarian distribution of knowledge.
