Who says who interprets? On the possible existence of an interpreter system
If we ask who is selected to interpret in a particular setting, who is most trusted, the answers rarely concern interpreting as an independent social system. Different legal systems decide whom they trust as translators; institutional employers carry out their own exams; education systems provide signals of competence; the systems of controlled knowledge (science) and its diffusion (news) tend to rely on their own members who ‘know languages’ and, as has been seen in the case of pandemic-related information, rarely display constant trust in wholly independent interpreters. Analysis of interpreters’ trustworthiness in terms of Luhmann’s sociology can thus start from dependencies between at least four possible types of system: interpreters supply utterance; legal systems assume truthful utterance; education systems attest the relative trustworthiness of utterance; systems of knowledge control and diffusion (science, the military, government information, news) assume shared skills or ad hoc modes of professional hybridity. On this view, an interpreter system is only sometimes able to create its own signals of trustworthiness and have those signals accepted. In many instances, it must rely on intersystemic relations, which are often irritations ensuing from the way one social system is given to not understanding another.

Qu’est-ce que l’écologie — en général et dans nos métiers ? Comment la traduction s’inscrit-elle dans l’écosystème de l’édition et de la production de contenus ? Comment adopter une démarche écologique dans son activité ? C’est entre autres à ces questions que répondra Marin Schaffner, traducteur et militant de l’écologie, lors d’une masterclass à destination des traducteurs et traductrices de tous secteurs.
Cette masterclass, organisée en partenariat avec l’université de Tours, se tiendra en mode hybride sur place à l’Université de Tours ou à distance sur la plateforme Teams.
Un enregistrement sera mis à la disposition des personnes inscrites dans les semaines qui suivront la masterclass.

Future translatorsʼ views on translation theory: a qualitative approach
The practical orientation of undergraduate translation and interpreting degrees in Spain means that less importance is given to theoretical modules, and it is often thought that students doubt the usefulness of these modules and are therefore reluctant to take them. Previous empirical researchhas shown that students are not as averse to theory as is often assumed; in fact, according to these studies, students rate its contribution to their training quite positively. In order to take a further step in the study of students’ views on translation theory, the present study adds a qualitative perspective to (in)validate the results obtained in previous research and explore them in greater depth. Students’ answers to open questions are analysed using Atlas.ti qualitative analysis software to assess how translation theory contributes to their training and identify the strengths and weaknesses of the translation theory module at Jaume I University (Castellón, Spain). Our findings show that fitting translation theory into the training and education of translators is a complex task and they also reveal that cognitive restructuring is needed to help students overcome their tendency to associate theory with complex, dense, difficult-to-grasp and, ultimately, useless concepts.
