Translation in the Digital Age by Michael Cronin
Michael Cronin examines the role of translation with regard to the debates around emerging digital technologies and analyses their social, cultural and political consequences, guiding readers through the beginnings of translation's engagement with technology, and through to the key issues that exist today.“Cronin touches upon every imaginable translation, the semantic web, flashmobs, lolcats and WikileaksBy bringing different areas of thought together, he explores the historical, social and cultural implications of technology for translation while at the same time suggesting how Translation Studies could contribute to our understanding of what is going on is society in the digital age.” - Carlos S. C. Teixeira, Dublin City University, Ireland
