“…The use of the Critical Discourse Analysis tool to critically assess the quality and results of translations has been massively used, such as by Ahmed and Hamad (2022), Pan andLiao (2021), andZeng (2022). There have even been several scholars, such as Zanettin (2021), who provide guidance on exposure to Critical Discourse Analysis in translation.…”

Since the beginning of the Covid-19 Pandemic, the world has heavily relied on the internet to acquire information. The Pandemic is growing as a complex information discourse with so many texts from many sources. Various texts about Covid-19 certainly have various meanings for their readers. It is interesting to see an information resource that presents information in many languages in parallel. This study aims to reveal the global meaning of the parallel Indonesian and English texts of Covid-19 released by the World Health Organization. More specifically, this study examines whether parallelism in the two versions of the same text will present differences in the global meaning of each text; and whether there are social and political aspects that potentially affect the differences. The data for this study consists of two pairs of question-and-answer texts about Covid-19 published by WHO in English and Indonesian. This study used van Dijk's Critical Discourse Analysis framework at the macrostructure level. This study collected all texts and macro rules (deletion, generalization, and construction) have been applied to reduce information at the texts’ micro level to macropropositions at the macro level or the global topics/themes of discourse. There are some differences in the Indonesian text when compared to the original English text. Some of these differences may appear in the Indonesian translated version as a response to Indonesia's social and political conditions during the Covid-19 pandemic.

“…As Thomson and Burrows point out, material in eighteenth-century newspapers relating to events in other nations, necessarily involving translation, are a 'rich and underexploited field' in terms of the charting of translation and our understanding of the mechanisms by which information and ideas pass from one culture to another (2010: 14). 8 The extent to which translation figures prominently in the quotidian practice of producing news is currently meriting particular attention in the field of translation studies (Bielsa and Bassnett 2009;Aragrande 2020;Zanettin 2021).…”

The Routledge Handbook of Translation History presents the first comprehensive, state-ofthe-art overview of this multi-faceted disciplinary area and serves both as an introduction to carrying out research into translation and interpreting history and as a key point of reference for some of its main theoretical and methodological issues, interdisciplinary approaches, and research themes.The Handbook brings together 30 eminent international scholars from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds, offering examples of the most innovative research while representing a wide range of approaches, themes, and cultural contexts. The Handbook is divided into four sections: the first looks at some key methodological and theoretical approaches; the second examines some of the key research areas that have developed an interdisciplinary dialogue with translation history; the third looks at translation history from the perspective of specific cultural and religious perspectives; and the fourth offers a selection of case studies on some of the key topics to have emerged in translation and interpreting history over the past 20 years.This Handbook is an indispensable resource for students and researchers of translation and interpreting history, translation theory, and related areas.

“…As part of this trend of more interdisciplinary and outwardlooking research, scholars have examined the role of translators and interpreters in communicating information bilingually and multilingually, disseminating knowledge, (re)constructing discourses and narratives, and indexing sociopolitical identities and enacting realities in various historical (Lung, 2006;Guo, 2015;Wang and Xu, 2016;Wolf, 2016;Cui, 2021;Rodríguez-Espinosa, 2022), institutional (Schäffner, 2012;Wang, 2012;Beaton-Thome, 2013;Li, 2018;Wang and Feng, 2018;Fu and Chen, 2019;Gu, 2019Gu, , 2022aGu and Tipton, 2020;Gu and Wang, 2021;Li and Hu, 2021;Hu and Li, 2022), cultural (Conway, 2015); sociopolitical (Baker, 2006;Harding, 2011;Munday, 2012), diplomatic (Gao, 2021;Gao and Munday, 2022), media and journalistic (Orengo, 2005;Bielsa and Bassnett, 2009;van Doorslaer, 2009;Kang, 2014;Pan, 2014;Liu, 2017;Gu, 2018;Qin and Zhang, 2018;Filmer, 2019;Riggs, 2019;Valdeón, 2021;Zanettin, 2021;Zeng and Li, 2021;Kamyanets, 2022;Ping, 2022), public services (Wadensjö, 1...…”
