Translation in Times of Open Sources: Need for New Definitions and Approaches?
Original language description
New tendencies in translation include shifts in the understanding in the internet community of authorship and copyright. The article illustrates this with two examples of Czech covert translations from the internet. While raising the question of sustainability of a Wikipeadia project in a small community of potential users, the article stresses the usefulness of Wikipedia as a source of many non-professional translations. These can be used in translation research (as a learners' translations corpus of asort) as well as in constructivist projects in translator training. Further types of shared authorship are mentioned and the main features of internet translations listed. The article compares the intuitive notion of copyright assumed by internet usersto that preceding its today's legal notion. Since texts created by non-professionals have become more influential, the author stresses the need for increasing public awareness of translation.
