summaryThis lecture examines spontaneous, oral translation practices of Mark’s Gospel, as a way of revealing the ethnopragmatic challenges Bosavi pastors faced interpreting these texts. Focusing on selective metalinguistic domains, such as reported speech, as well as particular speech acts, e.g., blasphemy, I explore how critical differences between Bosavi and Western theories of mind help make sense of translation difficulties that persisted over several decades.
