Translation

TRAMA

"Translation" is a comprehensive resource book which provides students and researchers with support for advanced study of the subject. The authors examine the theory and practice of translation from a variety of linguistic and cultural angles. Drawing on a wide range of languages, including French, Spanish, German, Italian, Russian and Arabic, they explore material from a variety of sources, such as the Internet, advertisements, religious texts, literary and technical texts. As with all books in the "Routledge Applied Linguistics" series, Translation is clearly structured in three main sections. Translation includes readings by Catford, Fawcett, Ernst-August Gutt, James S. Holmes, Eugene Nida, Werner Koller, Levy, Reiss, George Steiner, Vinay and Darbelnet.

NOTE EDITORE

Routledge Applied Linguistics is a series of comprehensive textbooks, providing students and researchers with the support they need for advanced study in the core areas of English language and Applied Linguistics. Each book in the series guides readers through three main sections, enabling them to explore and develop major themes within the discipline. Section A, Introduction, establishes the key terms and concepts and extends readers’ techniques of analysis through practical application. Section B, Extension, brings together influential articles, sets them in context, and discusses their contribution to the field. Section C, Exploration, builds on knowledge gained in the first two sections, setting thoughtful tasks around further illustrative material. This enables readers to engage more actively with the subject matter and encourages them to develop their own research responses. Throughout the book, topics are revisited, extended, interwoven and deconstructed, with the reader’s understanding strengthened by tasks and follow-up questions.  Translation: examines the theory and practice of translation from a variety of linguistic and cultural angles, including semantics, functional linguistics, corpus and cognitive linguistics, discourse analysis, gender studies and postcolonialism draws on a wide range of languages, including French, Spanish, German, Italian, Russian and Arabic explores material from a variety of sources, such as the Internet, advertisements, religious texts, literary and technical texts gathers together influential readings from the key names in the discipline, including James S.
