In the article below I wanted to provide some insights into the arcane world of the legal translator. The aim was to have some kind of go-to text that I could send people who have no idea what the profession is all about.
I hope readers will find it useful – some may find it informative depending on their backgrounds, and I would encourage any readers who feel that it could help to raise others’ awareness to share the post liberally. It’s all about roaring, don’t forget! 😉
This post updates and replaces my 2012 compendium. As I haven’t found this kind of guide elsewhere, my aim is to give you a flavour of the legal translation, legal linguistics and legal interpreting courses available at universities worldwide.
Please contact me via the sidebar if you know of others that I have not included here.
The highly reputed Department of Legal Sciences, Language, Interpreting and Translation Studies (the former Scuola Superiore di Lingue Moderne per Interpreti e Traduttori – SSLMIT) at the University of Trieste is offering a Masters in Legal Translation (Master universitario di II livello in Traduzione giuridica).
