معرفی
Lars Jämterud serves as Head of Department and University Lecturer at Linköping University, holding dual affiliations with the Department of Culture and Society (IKOS) and The Department for Language, Culture and Interaction (SKI). He actively champions humanities and social science education, emphasizing the preservation of high-quality independent academic programs.
His educational background includes a Master of Arts in English (1999) and an Upper secondary school teacher qualification in English and religious studies (2002), complemented by ongoing doctoral studies at the Graduate School of Languages and Cultures in Europe.
Dr. Jämterud's research centers on Descriptive Translation Studies with specialization in English-language film subtitling into Swedish. His work investigates subtitlers' unique stylistic 'voice' through technical, linguistic, and polysemiotic analysis, incorporating practitioner interviews to examine professional norms and self-perception. Current projects include analysis of British comedies like House of Cards and Fawlty Towers.
His publication trajectory reveals consistent focus on subtitling individuality, evolving from foundational 2016 research on English-Swedish translation norms to his 2025 monograph establishing methodological frameworks for identifying subtitler 'voice' through sitcom case studies. This work bridges theoretical translation studies with practical audiovisual localization.
