The article "Transmission of documentation to courts in original form?" deals with the question of whether medical records must be transmitted to courts in their original form. There is no explicit regulation regarding whether the court is entitled to receive the medical records in their original form. According to the provisions of hospital law, doctors or hospital operators are not obligated to submit medical records to the court in their original form. Instead, access should be granted at the place of storage if the original is needed in a civil proceeding. A restrictive interpretation of the corresponding paragraph of the Civil Procedure Code is recommended in order to fulfill the purpose of making the medical records available at the hospital.

Translation theory has entered a new paradigm when defining translation as action determined by a purpose and by placing the translator in the center of the translation process, allowing him a much larger degree of freedom within the borders of a rigourously defined practice. This paradigm shift has also brought about the replacing of the concept of equivalence with that of adequacy, thus enabling the translator a more creative approach to the text. The skopos theory might contribute to bridging the gap between theory and practice in the field of translation. The article intends to briefly describe the most important aspects of the skopos theory and to discuss its possible applicability in the translation of a corpus of texts representing witness depositions and court records of the witch trials in Sibiu, Transylvania, during the 17th century, at the hight of the witch persecutions. A short description of the specific aspects of Transylvanian witch trials will also be included. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
