Abstract
The Translation Studies Reader provides a survey of the most important and influential approaches to translation theory and research, with the emphasis on the developments of the last thirty years. With introductory essays prefacing each section, the book places a wide range of readings within their thematic, cultural and historical contexts.
This second edition includes nine new readings, some appearing in retranslations; provides a historical dimension, with texts from antiquity to present. It also represents a wide range of languages and explores the interdisciplinary nature of translation studies through readings in fields such as literary theory and linguistics, philosophy and film studies.
