Overview
Translation : An in-depth analysis of several text worlds i.e. commercial and legal, and the challenges they represent for the translator. The seminar examines the specialized aspects of a given text and the approaches translators have at their disposal to assist them in solving the particular problems these represent. Specialists in the different fields will be invited to give their expert opinions and discuss the various aspects of their specialty. The class will be divided into groups with the same or related areas of specialization. Oral presentations will expose students to background knowledge about other fields, thus providing as wide as possible a range of competence. / Analyse de plusieurs langues de sp茅cialit茅 (commerciale, juridique) et les d茅fis qu'elles repr茅sentent pour le traducteur.
