Description
Reviews
"This wide-ranging collection of essays by translation scholars and practioners will give a welcome push to the long-stalled debate in Translation Studies over the relationship between theory and practice. The authors, working in various language pairs and across historical periods, move fluently from concrete example to abstraction, and Kirsten Malmkjoer's powerful call for a philosophy of translation ends the volume with a bang."
In presenting this collection of thought-provoking essays. Ranging around the topics of theory and practice, Fawcett et al. aim to demonstrate the potential value of an acquaintanceship with theory as a powerful translation tool.' -- In Other Words
