Hambrook J., Lonergan J. Interpreting matters

UK: Immigration Appellate Authority (IAA) University of Westminster, 1999. — 54 p.Interpreting Matters is an indispensable aid for interpreter training. The video and book materials have been developed with the support of the Nuffield Interpreter Project and in collaboration with the University of Westminster and the Immigration Appellate Authority. This book supports the two court-based case studies featured on the video and provides valuable advice for all students of interpreting, especially those in training as public service interpreters.
Interpreting Matters is the first course on video to show interpreting in action. It focuses on the role of the interpreter in the courtroom and in particular on interpreting in a British Immigration Appellate Authority court. However, the lessons of this environment are extended in the accompanying book to other areas of public service interpreting.
