A Relevance-Theoretic Approach to Decision-Making in Subtitling Summary

A Relevance-Theoretic Approach to Decision-Making in Subtitling by ukasz Bogucki

This book aims to investigate the process of decision-making in subtitling of feature films and entertainment series. The author uses Relevance Theory (Sperber and Wilson,1986) to argue that the technical, linguistic and translational constraints at work in subtitling result in a curtailed target text, and illustrates this argument by invoking examples drawn from the English-Polish subtitles of films and television series available through the subscription service Netflix. After introducing thecurrent state of research on audiovisual translation within and outside the framework of translation studies, he presents the core concepts underpinning Relevance Theory and explains how it can be used toconstruct a model of the process of subtitling. This book will be of interest to students and scholars working in the fields oftranslation studies, audiovisual translation studies, and communication studies.
