Course Content
   • This is a 54-hour course of the B1/B2 level of the
     Common European Framework of Reference for
     Languages.
     It will be divided into two parts: a theoretical
     part and a practical one.
   • The PRACTICAL PART involves a better
     understanding of the translation process, its
     application to diverse text types, and the
     development of a translation project involving
     the whole class.
Olga Denti
The theoretical part
      1.     Language functions,
      2.     Context & Culture,
      3.     Stylistics,
      4.     Discourse & Text,
      5.     Grammar,
      6.     Vocabulary & Textuality,
      7.     the process of Translating

Olga Denti
Objectives
      The students will:
      - achieve a good knowledge of Translation Theories and
         good skills needed to analyse language functions and
         interpret different text types and genres;
      - learn to apply translation methodologies and discuss
         their own choice;
      - learn to translate diverse genres and text types.

                       Prerequisites
       English Language 1 / B1 level of the Common European
                 Framework of Reference for Languages
Olga Denti
Methodology
      • The THEORETICAL PART will include lessons
        and seminaries. Mid-term assessments will be
        organized.
      • The PRACTICAL PART will require team work.
        The students, aided by the professor, will
        apply translation techniques and carry out a
        class project.

Olga Denti
Assessment
  • The final exam will include a written test, aiming at
    assessing the students’ acquisition of Translation
    Theories and practice. After answering a couple of
    questions, the students will be asked to translate a
    short text and shortly comment their translation
    choices.
  • For those students who will regularly attend the
    lectures, the final mark will be made up of mid-
    term assessments as well, and of the practical work
    carried out in class, which will be evaluated.

Olga Denti
Additional information
  • The students will be required to download
    material from prof. Denti’s personal webpage
    http://people.unica.it/olgadenti/, before the
    lectures. Please, check the website for updates
    and further information.
  • Attending lectures and classes is not compulsory
    but is highly recommended, especially with
    reference to the practical part.
  • Moreover, only those students who will regularly
    attend the lectures, will be entitled to take the
    mid-term assessments.
