Self-Care, Translation Professionalization, and the Translator’s Ethical Agency
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-71354-0 (ISBN)
The volume seeks to provide a counterpoint to existing views in translation studies research on ethics by building on work in sociology and philosophical genealogy, particularly Foucault’s notion of Epimeleia Heautou, to establish a framework of self-care ethics. Featuring analyses of various codes of ethics across different professional associations, the book offers a critical examination of the potential impact of codified ethics on translator autonomy and symbolic status and in turn, their broader social and planetary responsibilities within their roles as translators beyond the translation community. In setting out an alternative charter of ethics which promotes a culture of the self within larger institutions and critical pedagogy within translator education programs, the volume charts new directions in emergent debates on ethics in translation practice.
This book will appeal to scholars in translation and interpreting studies, particularly those interested in ethics and sociological and philosophical approaches within the discipline.
Abderrahman Boukhaffa is a practicing translator. He received his PhD in Translation Studies in 2021 from the School of Translation and Interpretation at the University of Ottawa, Canada.
