This Handbook provides the first comprehensive overview of sign
language translation and interpretation from around the globe and
looks ahead to future directions of research. Divided into eight
parts, the book covers foundational skills, the working context of
both the sign language translator and interpreter, their education,
the sociological context, work settings, diverse service users, and a
regional review of developments. The chapters are authored by a range
of contributors, both deaf and hearing, from the Global North and
South, diverse in ethnicity, language background, and academic
discipline. Topics include the history of the profession, the
provision of translation and interpreting in different domains and to
different populations, the politics of provision, and the state of
play of sign language translation and interpreting professions across
the globe. Edited and authored by established and new voices in the
field, this is the essential guide for advanced students and
researchers of translation and interpretation studies and sign
language.
