Описание: Relying upon a combination of ethnomethodological and sociological tools provided by Hochschild’s (2003) theory of emotional labor, this talk focuses on the gendered work of conference interpreters, addressing questions such as how clients’ gendered assumptions affect interpreters’ relationship to their work and sense of identity. Drawing on interview data with twenty-one conference interpreters working in various institutional settings, the analysis of the framework covers contexts in which female interpreters are discriminated, sexualized, and occasionally harassed in business or high-level diplomatic settings, or when an interpreter is perceived to be gay and consequently has to deal with abusive clients. In such contexts colored by gender-stereotyped preconceptions and expectations, interpreters’ bodies and emotions tend to be controlled by those who hire them for work. These gendered practices lead interpreters to develop various modes of individual and collective resistance through either deliberate or unintentional violation of the main tenets of professional codes of ethics.
