Marianne Lederer (born 1934) is a French translation scholar.

Marianne Lederer was born in Paris in 1934.

Her father, Edgar Lederer was an internationally renowned bio-chemist of Austrian descent and her mother Hélène Fréchet was French.

Before the Second World War, the family lived in Vienna in Austria, and in Leningrad in the Soviet Union, where her father had a position at the Vitamin institute.

When developing the theory, Lederer focused on simultaneous interpretation and Seleskovitch on consecutive interpretation.

1970

The launch of the Interpretive Theory of Translation, in the 1970s promoted translation as a triangular process rather than a linear coding.

Together with Danica Seleskovitch, she was one of the first translators to break away from the structural linguistics, which still dominated in the 1970s.

This was done by placing the translator at the centre of the process, and to turn to other disciplines, such as psychology and neuropsychology, to explain the cognitive process of interpreting and translation.

She is also one of the founders and promotors of the so called Paris-school of interpreting which promotes interpreting into a mother tongue or L1.
