Academic Translations

I find the process of translation more deep than reading. When I'm translating a text, I enter in such engagement with the author that I can feel what he/she wants to put into words.

I have a considerable academic background, so I make English to Spanish translations of academic articles and books.

"Montse Chanivet has translated a book, Hacia Psicologías de Liberación, and multiple academic articles for me with understanding and precision. She is deeply attuned to academic and linguistic nuance, making sure that authors' meanings are brought forward with lucidity. She is easy to work with and timely. I could not recommend her more highly."
