Elena Di Giovanni – författare

This volume explores the expansion of audiovisual translation studies and practices within European institutions, universities and businesses. The wide variety of contributions from researchers and practitioners from different countries and backgrounds reflects the rapid pace and complex nature of this expansion.The first section is dedicated to the multiple relations and intersections of AVT with culture and demonstrates how translation is conditioned by the (in)correct perception and codification of cultural values, both in dubbing and subtitling. The second section focuses on new perspectives on media accessibility, providing a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in this relatively young but growing area. The contributions are in line with a new trend in the field of AVT that presents accessibility as both an asset and a universal right, thus highlighting the importance of increased accessibility to audiovisual media content for all viewers.

De l'etude de quelques auteurs classiques a l'analyse du role des illustrations, en passant par la bande dessinee et le theatre pour les enfants, ce volume analyse le vaste champ de l'ecriture pour la jeunesse. Differentes contributions se penchent sur la traduction de la litterature de jeunesse, et plus particulierement sur sa nature intersemiotique. Elles abordent de la sorte la problematique de la voix du traducteur et les principes theoriques guidant ce-dernier, ou se concentrent specifiquement sur diverses litteratures nationales. Un dernier axe de reflexion, enfin, offre un apercu sur la traduction audiovisuelle, ses principes theoriques, ses realisations concretes et ses effets du point de vue de la reception. Les contributions reunies dans ce volume sont en francais, anglais et italien. The first section of this volume features a variety of essays on writing for children, ranging from studies of classic authors to an analysis of the role of pictures in children's books, to an examination of comics and theatre for the young. Subjects addressed in the second section include the intersemiotic nature of translating for children, the question of the translator's voice, the theoretical principles that best aid translators in the field of children's literature, as well as chapters exploring the idea of national literatures for the young. The third and final section offers insights into audiovisual translation for children. These contributions focus on theories and models for this kind of translational activity, as well as addressing a number of real-life cases and their reception. The volume features contributions in three languages: French, English and Italian.
