| Clarification request(s) and responsexxxFrancis Lee: 14:39 Apr 12, 2006: Context/readership? -
Sonja Wesseler: 14:41 Apr 12, 2006: It's a newspaper article about the architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel and his life. Readership will have some knowledge of architecture but it's not an expert newspaper.
xxxFrancis Lee: 15:00 Apr 12, 2006: "Context" meaning: where will this translation appear? -
Sonja Wesseler: 15:04 Apr 12, 2006: As mentioned above: article in a paper for people interested in architecture and the history thereof.
Henry Schroeder: 15:07 Apr 12, 2006: Kondukteur/Konduktor may be being used im übertragenen Sinne. See this site: http://72.14.207.104/search?q=cache:mQnRyusXousJ:www.neurupp... -
Sonja Wesseler: 15:11 Apr 12, 2006: That's a good point, Henry. But what would Kondukteur be in English?
Henry Schroeder: 15:15 Apr 12, 2006: @Sonja - I'm too exhausted to try and figure out in what sense the author might be using it. Ann's answer is certainly a possibility. I think you will get more responses later. Good luck! -
Sonja Wesseler: 15:23 Apr 12, 2006: Nevermind Henry - I know what you're talking about :-)
Have a good evening!
xxxFrancis Lee: 15:28 Apr 12, 2006: Is this "newspaper article" translation to appear in e.g. a journal or what? -
Sonja Wesseler: 15:30 Apr 12, 2006: It's a paper (sorry, I don't know whether it will be a newspaper or a journal) that will be issued every 3 montsh and only to people who have subsribed for it (you can't buy it in a shop or something).
xxxFrancis Lee: 16:24 Apr 12, 2006: "in a shop or something" meaning: in a shop etc. ? -

In your context I am assuming that Brasch was the contractor.
Here is another site that lists Baukondukteur as an occupation. There appears to be some overlap in terms for an occupation that involves overseeing.
