Mara Logaldo

CURRENT POSITION:

Mara Logaldo has been teaching at IULM University since 1993 and is currently Assistant Professor. In 2018, she obtained the National Scientific Qualification as Associate Professor in English Language and Translation.
She is a member of the Doctoral Board in the PhD Programme in “Visual and Media Studies” and a member of the Joint Teacher-Student Commission of the Faculty of Interpreting, Translation and Linguistic and Cultural Studies.
Department of Humanities.

RESEARCH LINES:

After obtaining her Doctoral Degree in English Studies, with a thesis on the structural function of metaphor in some novels and short-stories by Henry James during his experimental phase, Mara Logaldo has followed two main lines of research: on the one hand, she has investigated how rhetorical and linguistic phenomena have been discussed and actualised in literary texts, in treatises on legal subjects and in the periodical press; on the other; she has explored linguistic and discursive practices in different types of media texts, according to a multimodal and critical-analytical (CDA) approach. Her research has progressively focused on media discourse, literary journalism, tags in Augmented Reality, captions in photojournalism, and film dialogue. More recently, she has investigated the pragmatics of audiovisual translation, with particular reference to subtitling (Captioning and Revoicing Screened Dialogue. The Pragmatics of Audiovisual Translation, forthcoming).
Since 2018, she has been a member of the research group "Variation and Norm in Translation, from the Press to Orality: Theory, Practice, Profession", coordinated by professor Giuliana Elena Garzone. She is also a member of the interdepartmental research project "The genre of the review", coordinated by prof. Paolo Giovannetti.
She is currently a member of the Committee of the European Society for Periodical Research (ESPRit), where she has been appointed Conference Liaison Officer. She is also a member of the Italian Association of Law and Literature (AIDEL).
