The book is a collection of studies in applied audiovisual translation, focusing on the animated genre subtitled and dubbed into Romanian.

Fans of the animated genre as well as readers interested in linguistic research will find insightful information in each chapter. An interview with an industry leader provides details on the evolution of AVT in Romania. The theoretical frameworks are thoroughly documented and support applied research, which will, hopefully, stimulate similar studies in other languages. The primary audience are fans of the animated genre who are interested in linguistic transfer methods. Secondary audiences are students who would like to learn more about subtle approaches to audiovisual translation modes.

Identity has often been labelled one of the most controversial concepts of our time, its complexity and elusiveness generating heated debate among identity theorists, researchers, enthusiasts, etc. The present volume is structured as a collection of articles focusing on this multifaceted phenomenon, offering various and challenging analysis lens that would zoom in on constructive or deconstructive identity journeys.The authors of the papers are master¿s degree programme students (first year of study), specialising in Anglo-American Studies, and the papers reflect, to a certain extent, the research they conducted within several courses at George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of Targu Mures (UMPhST), constituted as incipient studies that do not claim to exhaust the approaches they propose, but further them as the beginning of a scholarly journey.

The concept of identity lies at the core of popular and academic research in a wide array of disciplines in the fields of Social Sciences and Humanities. It is no surprise, therefore, that the cultural and historical construction of identity has been the focus of academic research, reflected in students¿ research papers as well. The contributions selected in the present volume mirror this line of research while approaching social, cultural, and personal identity as a strong motivational trigger for dramatic change.
