The Philippines, a vibrant and multilingual nation, boasts a rich tapestry of indigenous languages and regional dialects intertwined with the influence of foreign languages, notably English and Spanish. In this insightful book, esteemed professors Moratto and Bacolod, along with their esteemed contributors, delve into the multifaceted realm of translation in the Philippines. They explore the diverse roles that translation assumes across various domains, including disaster mitigation, crisis communication, gender bias, language marginalization, academia, and perspectives on sex, gender, and sexuality. The authors examine a wide array of translation types, ranging from the meticulous translation of biblical texts to the intricate challenges of audio-visual translation and machine translation. By emphasizing the interdisciplinary nature of translation, the book employs a diverse range of analytic lenses, including anthropological linguistics, language and culture studies, semantics, structural linguistics, and performance arts, among others. This comprehensive resource serves as a valuable tool for scholars and practitioners of translation, as well as a valuable reference for scholars across a broad spectrum of humanities and social science disciplines seeking to understand the culture, language, and society of the Philippines.
