Humanising Critical Journalistic Translation Studies
Ali Jalalian Daghigh and Pei Soo Ang's book provides new insights into the relationships between translation, journalism, ideology, and power via a humanising approach. Carving out a niche within Journalistic Translation Studies, the book introduces and expands on Critical Journalistic Translation Studies (CJTS). The authors critically evaluate the state of the art while advocating for humanising research by focusing on the experiences of both translators and readers.Using the Chinese journalistic translation landscape as a case study, the book investigates the socio-political and socio-cognitive dimensions of journalistic translation. Through applications of sociological, cognitive, and critical discourse approaches, it sheds light on the working conditions of news translators, their cognitive and emotional experiences, the influence of power and ideology on the translation process, the effects of ideological manipulation on translated news texts, and the subsequent impact of such news on audience perceptions and emotions.By opening fresh methodological pathways, not only does this book illuminate the Chinese journalistic translation landscape, but it also opens new avenues in CJTS. This book is an indispensable resource for academics, postgraduate students, and researchers in Translation Studies, Media Studies, and Journalism Studies, offering a transformative focus on humanising CJTS.

Institutions of Literature, 1700-1900
This collection provides students and researchers with a new and lively understanding of the role of institutions in the production, reception, and meaning of literature in the period 1700-1900. The period saw a fundamental transition from a patronage system to a marketplace in which institutions played an important mediating role between writers and readers, a shift with consequences that continue to resonate today. Often producers themselves, institutions processed and claimed authority over a variety of cultural domains that never simply tessellated into any unified system. The collection's primary concerns are British and imperial environments, with a comparative German case study, but it offers encouragement for its approaches to be taken up in a variety of other cultural contexts. From the Post Office to museums, from bricks and mortar to less tangible institutions like authorship and genre, this collection opens up a new field for literary studies.

The Bookability Formula
Why do some speakers get booked again and again, while most struggle to land even one paid gig? What makes one speaker the industry go-to, while everyone else is overlooked, no matter how good they are on stage? Why do some speakers effortlessly attract repeat bookings, referrals and high fees, while others don't? Can you really be more in demand, more respected, and more booked without being famous or a celebrity? The answer is YES! This book reveals what the top 1% most-booked speakers do differently - and how you can do it too. In The Bookability Formula, former international speaker bureau owner, Maria Franzoni sets out to answer the question: does Richard Koch's 80/20 Principle apply to speakers too? She analysed years of speaker bureau data and what she found was striking: just 1% of her roster generated 80% of bookings and over half the revenue. Determined to uncover what set the 1% apart, Maria developed the Bookability Formula - a clear, proven framework for any speaker who wants to become commercially and consistently bookable. Packed with insider insights, real examples and tools you can use straight away, this is the book for speakers who want to stop guessing and start getting booked.

Stimulus, Intention and Process in Creative Writing
Stimulus, Intention and Process in Creative Writing explores three exciting and key areas of creative writing practice and understanding. What stimulates a writer to write - or to write a particular piece? What do they intend to achieve when they do it? And is there a process we can study and perhaps even understand?The authors in this book, who are both practitioners and researchers, explore these three areas in unique and thought-provoking ways. They bring to the discussion both expertise in relation to what we already know, and a sense of forward-thinking in discussing how we can find out more. This is a book for creative writing researchers and students who are seeking new knowledge about how creative writing is done, what informs and encourages those doing it, and what results from that knowledge and encouragement. It is also potentially a book for creative writing practitioners who wonder how the things that interest them have them writing certain things, and the ways they go about approaching, undertaking and completing these projects.The chapters in this book were originally published in New Writing: The International Journal for the Practice and Theory of Creative Writing.
