Abstract:

This book covers the history of the theory and practice of translation from
Cicero to the digital age. It examines all major processes of translation,
offers critical accounts of current research, and compares competing
theoretical perspectives. It considers all kinds of translation from sacred
texts, poetry, fiction, and sign language to remote, consecutive, and
simultaneous interpretation in legal, diplomatic, and commercial contexts.
The two opening parts of the book consider the history of translation
theory and central concepts in the study of translation. Parts III, IV, and
V cover the written text, the interpretation of speech and sign language,
and the role of translation in mixed-mode and multimedia contexts. Part VI
considers the contributions and challenges of information technology
including the uses and limitations of machine technology. The final part
looks at the teaching and training of translators and interpreters. The
book concludes with a comprehensive bibliography and index. 

Designed as a state-of-the-art reference and practical guide the book will
serve the needs of all those involved in translation, whether as
professional translators and interpreters, researchers in translation
studies and allied disciplines, or as undergraduate or postgraduate
students. This is, in sum, an essential work in a vibrant, fast-moving, and
fascinating field.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return 
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact 
your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple 
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without 
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company 
operates such a program.
