Centres vs périphéries dans l’espace traductionnel hellénophone : modes de croisement et types de relations
No full textDespite being almost nonexistent as an activity during Antiquity, translation occupies an essential position in the formation and development of the Greek language, in the cultural growth and even the awakening of the enslaved nation between the 15th and the early 20th centuries.
The aim of this paper is to present the particularities of the Greek-speaking translational domain as well as the types of relationships established within the international context since the 17th century. Furthermore, the author studies whether the objectives of the translated text are identical to those of the original text, and if the translation methods adopted by the Greek-speaking world are the same as those adopted elsewhere. Finally, the author attempts to sketch the contribution of the international context to the local translational thinking.Despite being almost nonexistent as an activity during Antiquity, translation occupies an essential position in the formation and development of the Greek language, in the cultural growth and even the awakening of the enslaved nation between the 15th and the early 20th centuries.

Le transfert des emprunts du français au grec
No full textDans cet article, on étudie le sort des emprunts qui figurent dans un texte rédigé en français lors de leur traduction en grec. Après quelques remarques générales sur le phénomène de l’emprunt et la présentation des différentes manières de signaler des mots d’origine exogène par les auteurs francophones dans un texte, nous dressons une typologie des techniques employées par les traducteurs grecs et cherchons à définir la stratégie traductionnelle qui se trouve à l’origine de leurs choix. L’étude des méthodes employées nous montre que les choix adoptés ne sont pas conditionnés par le désir d’une lisibilité sans faille en inféodant l’Autre. Les traducteurs, en tant que vrais médiateurs interculturels, accordent, au contraire, toute l’importance due à l’origine du mot emprunté, à son champ sémantique, à sa position dans la langue source et dans la langue cible, à sa fonctionnalité dans le texte. Ils essaient donc de faire montre de loyauté envers toutes les parties prenantes de l’interaction traductionnelle.This study examines the way that exogenous lexical units appearing in texts in French are translated into Greek. After some general remarks on the phenomenon of lexical borrowing and the presentation of the different ways that francophone authors indicate the presence of loanwords in their texts, I draw up a list of the techniques used by the Greek translators and I try to define the translational strategy that guides their choices. In fact, the adopted choices are not imposed with the intention of domesticating the Other in order to achieve an easy readability. Translators, as real intercultural mediators, give, on the contrary, the due importance to the origin of the loan words, its semantic field, its position in the source and the target language, and its functionality in the text. Therefore, they try to show loyalty to all the participants in the translational interaction

Testing techniques and quality control practices for the examination of community interpreter trainers
Get PDFBased on the theoretical framework of assessment and evaluation, analytically presented in the previous chapter of this volume, as well as on the protocols and the codes of ethics and conduct from different professional organisations worldwide, this chapter provides a selection of analytical tools and techniques which are developed for the final examination of trainers of community inter-preters within the framework of the TRAMIG project.
The test construct is based on the competences of a community interpreter and includes a detailed testing of the interpreting competence. This includes the skills in different modes of interpreting, i.e. consecutive, simultaneous, sight translation and remote interpreting, the skills in managing the situa-tional setting, i.e. the discourse, and the ethics and conduct of a community interpreter.
These skills and sub-skills are assessed in both written and oral tests, while the candidate has to pass the written form in order to proceed with the oral exam-ination. Additionally, different techniques are presented for testing the peda-gogical competence of a community interpreter trainer, e.g. the importance of giving concrete feedback to the trainees including the carefully chosen tasks to be achieved at every step of the training programme

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
