Abstract:

Translation theories are not a trivial matter for they underpin the choices of
decision-makers worldwide: from media moguls who decide which foreign news
items to broadcast, to military commanders who recruit interpreters to
interface with local people in war zones. Theories of Translation deals with
such subjective theories as well as more formal ones. It also includes
theoretical perspectives on current technological developments, such as
user-generated translation. The book is aimed at final-year undergraduate and
postgraduate students but will also be of interest to teachers and researchers
in Translation Studies and related fields as well as to practising translators
who wish to keep abreast of theoretical debates of relevance to the
profession. This wide-ranging overview of the most important Translation
theories to have emerged in the last 50 years in Europe and beyond provides
new perspectives on a range of intercultural connections in a globalized
world.
