Abstract:

This is a book in the classical "Quaestiones" genre, like the
"Tusculanae Quaestiones" (“Tusculan questions”) of Cicero (around 45
BCE) and the "Quæstiones disputatæ de Veritate" (“disputed questions
on truth”) of St. Thomas Aquinas (1256-1259). It seeks to ask seven
series of questions about key theoretical approaches to the study of
translation: three on equivalence theories (semantic equivalence,
dynamic equivalence, and deverbalization), three on Descriptive
Translation Studies (norms, Toury’s laws, and the translator’s
narratoriality), and one on the translator’s visibility. Each
“Question” (chapter) charts a circuitous course through past answers
to new questions and new answers, drawing especially on the
theoretical traditions of hermeneutics, phenomenology, and 4EA
cognitive science. The book will guide both veteran and novice
scholars of translation deep into the complexities besetting the seven
keywords.
