Hispanic Pop Culture in Translation is a systematic course that combines both relevant theoretical background and practical guidance to enable advanced students of Spanish to confidently translate pop culture texts. Through analysis of the current state of dubbing, subtitling, and translation in the modern world, this innovative and engaging course makes students aware of the political, cultural, social, and historical implications of linguistic cross-cultural interactions in pop culture. Each chapter includes a variety of activities which prepare students for a final translation project. The practical tasks allow students to practice and refine their craft as translators and prepare for a career as a translator. Hispanic Pop Culture in Translation can be used as a core textbook for courses that focus on pop culture translation, or as a supplementary resource for general translation courses.
