| L'interprete dans les
conferences
internationales
Danica Seleskovitch. 1968, Cahiers
Champollion.
|
This
epoch-making
book defined the profession at a time when there was almost nothing
else in print and Danica Seleskovitch did more than anyone to raise the
profile of interpreting. This book remained the benchmark for 20 years
and although the language, the attitude and the style have dated a
little, it is still a very worthwhile read.

| Interpreting: Techniques
and
Exercises
Nolan, James, 2005, Multilingual
Matters.

Put together by
senior UN intepreter James Nolan, offers some good strategies for
simultaneous interpreting and interesting exercises to practise the
same strategies. You will need Fr, En and Es in your combination to use
all the examples though. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 are most useful. Don't
bother with all the language stuff. Available

| Intonation in the
production of
and perception of simultaneous interpretation
In Lambert and Moser-Mercer (Eds.).
Miriam
Schlesinger.
|
Does intonation matter? You
don't believe that natural intonation is such a priority? An empirical
study to show that it actual effects what the listener understands.

|
| Assessment of Simultaneous
interpreting
Anne Schjoldager. In Dollerup and Appel
(eds.)
|
Schjoldager rightly
recognises that the students’ ability to appraise themselves is as
important as the teacher comments and offers a framework for doing it.
