A critical perspective on theoretical approaches and models in audiovisual translation with possible didactic applications: Classic versus innovation

The present overview article summarizes some of the models applied in the field of audiovisual translation which has witnessed a significant expansion in academia and translation practice in recent years. The article describes selectively the models as proposed by Karamitroglou in 2000, the NER model (2015), the NTR model (2017) and the FAR model by Pedersen (2017) outlining their advantages, disadvantages, possible didactic application and their employment not only in translation-focused higher education classes but also the translation industry. Furthermore, it briefly outlines other models to illustrate a wealth of research possibilities to be used as an inspiration for those who delve into audiovisual translation.
