The Interpreters' Newsletter n. 24/2019

Thirty years have elapsed since the publication in 1989 of the selected papers of the Trieste Symposium by John Dodds and Laura Gran, and in the meantime the interpreting landscape has changed dramatically. In particular, Public Service Interpreting (PSI) has entered the scene and a considerable amount of research work is devoted to the various interpreting forms and settings. Technology has also come into play with software and devices that are having an impact on the profession and seem to require specialised training or at least some adjustments to existing courses. This issue features four articles covering different aspects of interpreter training and may give an indication of the way in which things have been changing.
