This cross-disciplinary review article provides an overview of previous studies on minority
language translation by combining Translation Studies with language revitalization research and
the study of the multilingual practices of minority language speakers. The article explores possible
links between these three areas of research that, so far, have shown relatively little interest in a
cross-disciplinary approach, and hopes thus to contribute to a better understanding of the different
types and status of minority languages as well as the diverse roles of translation and interpreting
for their speakers.
