The book presents the dynamic genre of audiovisual translation. It includes a taxonomy of AVT modalities, together with characteristics of the main types: subtitling, dubbing, voice-over, audiodescription and surtitling. Subsequently, it lists and evaluates methods of researching AVT.
«This little gem offers the reader an overview of the various practices that form part of the ever increasing field of audiovisual translation (AVT) and makes brave inroads into the less glamorous but definitely needed areas of theory and research. Covering a wide range of topics in research in AVT, and admittedly questioning «whether a universal methodology for audiovisual translation research is feasible», this volume theorises about the nature of AVT, helps to frame some of the current trends, and points to potentially new research avenues. The style is reader friendly and to the point; a most welcome addition to translation studies.»
