Deaf translator's visibility in political discourse: a dialogic positioning perspective.

This article adopts a discourse analytical approach to examine Deaf translator's visibility in sign language translation. Drawing on Bakhtin's notion of 'dialogism', it deploys the engagement system (Martin & White, 2005) to examine the (in)variance vis-à-vis dialogic positioning between a parallel...

      ab: This article adopts a discourse analytical approach to examine Deaf translator's visibility in sign language translation. Drawing on Bakhtin's notion of 'dialogism', it deploys the engagement system (Martin & White, 2005) to examine the (in)variance vis-à-vis dialogic positioning between a parallel corpus of Chinese and recorded Chinese Sign Language (CSL) translation featuring the Chinese President's recent public speeches. The article argues that (in)variance in dialogic positioning is a linguistic indicator of translator's visibility in text. A change in the dialogic positioning reflects a difference in the authorial stance towards the text's value positions and a shift in the presupposed addressee. Findings show a certain degree of dialogic positioning variance between the source and target texts. The CSL translation is overall more dialogically heteroglossic than the Chinese source text. The findings are discussed in light of the implications of the methodological approach and Deaf translator's identity construction in sign language translation.
