This monograph represents a large-scale attempt to provide such attention, by exploring the norms of subtitling for television. It does so by empirically investigating a large corpus of television subtitles from Scandinavia, one of the bastions of subtitling, along with other European data.The aim of the book is twofold: first, to provide an advanced and comprehensive model for investigating translation problems inBenjamins translation library ;v. 98.Translating and interpretingMass media and languageTelevision programsTitlingLanguage and cultureDiscourse analysisElectronic books.Translating and interpreting.Mass media and language.Television programsTitling.Language and culture.Discourse analysis.418/.03791Pedersen Jan477443MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457953903321Subtitling norms for television240686UNINA
