Synopsis
In her new, significant work, Melanie Metzger demonstrates clearly that the ideal of an interpreter as a neutral language conduit does not exist. Metzger offers evidence of this disparity by analyzing two videotaped ASL-English interpreted medical interviews, one an interpreter-trainee mock interview session, and the other an actual encounter between a deaf client and a medical professional. Sign Language Interpreting asks fundamental questions regarding interpreter neutrality. First, do interpreters influence discourse, and if so, how? Also, what kind of expectations do the participants bring to the event, and what do the interpreters bring to discussions? Finally, how do their remarks affect their alignment with participants in the interaction? This penetrating book discloses the ways in which interpreters affect exchanges, and it also addresses the potential implications of these findings regarding sign language interpretation in medical, educational, and all other general interactions. Interpreter trainers and their students will join certified interpreters and deaf studies scholars in applauding and benefitting from the fresh ground broken by this provocative study.

- e***a (69)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseShipped super quickly and was wonderfully packaged! Quality is even better than I expected- I knew the description said it had the sprayed edges (making it a first print), but sometimes people say that and then send a different version. This buyer is legit- I got the sprayed edges version that I needed, and it came in excellent condition!Assistant to the Villain by Hannah Nicole Maehrer Paperback (#177259441817)
