Bio

I am a British-born (naturalized French) translator [Dip. Trans.(IoLET), Chartered Linguist and Member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists] and an active researcher [MA, PhD] and musician. I specialize in academic texts but work across a wide range of fields, and teach courses at undergraduate and postgraduate level at Aix-Marseille University.

I translate and proof read articles, theses, books and archival sources for organizations, musicians, artists, postgraduate students and university faculty staff worldwide, and my translations appear in books and leading journals in fields such as musicology, anthropology, gender studies, religious history, identity studies, linguistics, environmental issues, climatology and cultural studies.

Well educated and cultured and a widely published author with excellent writing skills, I bring to my translation work 35 years of experience in music and the arts, and in social and hard sciences. I live mostly in France but also spend time in England, and I am registered for work in both countries.



A detailed CV of my qualifications and experience can be provided on request.

Clients' comments:

"Amanda Haste provided not only efficient translations of historical documents accurately and punctually (even providing some translations before their due date) but her own knowledge of the cultural and historical context of these documents allowed for a more sensitive rendering of the text. She was professional and a pleasure to work with."
