Translation commentary

Types of ‘commentary’ (1) Annotations: comments on a specific number of individual points in the text –tendency to focus on (micro)linguistic issues –limited scope for discussion of important macrotextual aspects or issues beyond the text, e.g. author- translator collaboration –impractical for multimedia texts –not used in Manchester MA

Types of ‘commentary’ (2) Essay: in-depth discussion of key aspects of text –allows more informed analysis –makes available a wide choice of topics for discussion –is flexible in structure –shows relevance of theoretical frameworks and research –links theory and practice –can accommodate multimedia texts – approach used in Manchester MA
