Abstract:

The volume is a collection of papers that deal with the issue of translation 
quality from a number of perspectives. It addresses the quality of human 
translation and machine translation, of pragmatic and literary translation, of 
translations done by students and by professional translators. Quality is not 
merely looked at from a linguistic point of view, but the wider context of QA in 
the translation workflow also gets ample attention.

The authors take an inductive approach: the papers are based on the analysis 
of translation data and/or on hands-on experience. The book provides a bird's 
eye view of the crucial quality issues, the close collaboration between 
academics and industry professionals safeguarding attention for quality in the 
'real world'. For this reason, the methodological stance is likely to inspire the 
applied researcher. The analyses and descriptions also include best practices 
for translation trainers, professional translators and project managers.
