''BEHIND INVERTED COMMAS''
 Translation and Anglo-German Cultural Relations in the Nineteenth
Century
Susanne Stark (University of Leeds)

KEY FEATURES
 - Aims to overcome the anonymity, silence and lack of creativity
associated with translation by examining a wide range of cultural
implications
 - Includes a chapter on the role of women translators and their
perception of their task

and travel writing

DESCRIPTION
This book examines the activities of a network of nineteenth century
intellectuals in Britain who were engaged in the rendering of German

the process of translation in an inter-and intra-lingual context and

history, philology, historiography and travel writing.
