The papers selected for this volume were presented at an international confeence entitled 'Translating voices, translating regions' held in Rieti, Italy in September 2005.

Abstract

The aims of Translating voices, Translating Regions are to explore the question of practices and theories in the translation of marginal voices, not only in written literature, but also in audio-visual translation in general and dubbing in particular, a process which is particularly strong in the French and Italian film industries. The research gathered in this edited volume deals with these two areas of practice and theory through a variety of approaches reflecting the most recent thinking in Translation Studies, and offering a range of theoretical perspectives.
