It is time to rethink the entire concept of the role of interpreter and equip interpreters to make informed decisions about how their presence effects consumers.
GURIEC Webinar: Positioning Interpreting – The Concept of Role Space
Questions addressed in this presentation include:
- What are the basic conventions of ‘normal’ monolingual interactions?
- How do interpreters deviate from these conventions?
- Where has the narrow notion of the ‘role’ come from?
- How can we explain the unique position of the interpreter in an interaction?
- What can we learn from the similarities that interpreters have to the other participants?
