The research is based on film description material from the Pear Tree Project (PTP). Identifying cultural phenomena in audio description is a prerequisite for deciding whether an existing AD for a film or DVD is ‘translatable’ or whether it needs to be newly created for each language and culture separately. Extending beyond lexical and grammatical issues, the article raises the question of how non-verbal cultural issues influence the coherence of an AD. This problem has been little discussed in AD research literature. Based on the methodological translation triad, as discussed in Gerzymisch-Arbogast (1998), we suggest that background cultural knowledge can be made transparent. We will show that differing cultural assumptions may lead to coherence gaps and demonstrate by individual hypotheses how these coherence gaps may be bridged. This may strengthen the argument that translating an AD into another language is inadequate from a cultural point of view. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Perspectives: Studies in Translatology is the property of Taylor & Francis Ltd and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
