Journalistic translation

[1] The first research about it was conducted in the mid-2000s, but translations started appearing in newspapers as early as the 17th century.

[1] Translation was, and still is, an integral part of journalism, in order for the public to be made aware of influential events happening in the world.

For example, during the First and Second World Wars, journalistic translation was the way in which people were informed about the battles taking place in Europe and the Middle East.

[5] For instance, in 1693, the Gazette wrote a report on the Battle of Landen in Flanders, where they expressed the tragic outcome of the human lives lost at war.

In 1698 and 1699, The London Gazette reported on the Papists; (a disagreement between the Emperor and the Pope in 1698 and the appointment of the Great Inquisitor in Spain in 1699).
