- Summary:
- Volume 37 of the series Approaches to Translation Studies explores gender bias and its expression in translation through audiovisual means, primarily in dubbing. Sections include the importance of interdisciplinary research in the field, sexism and gender stereotypes, gender in Anglo-American cinema, and representations of gender in speech. De Marco (translation, London Metropolitan U.) provides numerous examples and deconstructs them helpfully illustrating the myriad ways bias can influence translation of source material and distort meaning and understanding.
