In Other Voices is the essential coursebook for any student studying Interpreting and a companion to the bestselling In Other Words by Mona Baker.
Following the highly successful format of Baker’s textbook, In Other Voices offers the same bottom-up analysis of linguistic features that pose particular challenges in the context of Interpreting, extensively illustrated with authentic examples. Assuming no prior knowledge of linguistics or a foreign language, this textbook features:
- A wide range of types and contexts of interpreting, including all modes (simultaneous, consecutive, whispered, liaison and signed language interpreting) and a variety of settings (conference, court, community, health institutions, business meetings)
- exercises for class work or self study
- further reading and a glossary of key terms
- a wide range of language examples with back translations to ensure accessibility
A companion website featuring further exercises and sample speeches
