Who translates? Introduction
Welcome to Week 2 on ‘Who translates?’
This week we are going to explore the people who make translation happen and we will consider the important role translators and interpreters have played throughout history, as well as the multiple functions they perform in today’s multilingual world.
We will also look at bilingual and multilingual people, and reflect on the ways they negotiate between languages and cultural traditions in their daily lives.
Through multiple examples and activities, we hope to help you reflect on your own experiences as translators and interpreters but also, more broadly, as language users.
