Examples are drawn from two political plans, namely, the “Tenet Plan” and the “Disengagement Plan” and their different translations. The two plans were translated by different agents – including governmental and non-governmental institutions as well as media outlets – into Arabic and […]

By Luigi Alonzi Description This volume considers how the act through which historians interpret the past can be understood as one of epistemological and cognitive translation. The book convincingly argues that words, images, and historical and archaeological remains can all be considered as objects deserving the same treatment on the part of historians, whose task consists exactly in translating their […]

By Ernst-August Gutt Edition: 2nd Edition ABSTRACT From the outset, this book has evoked strong responses. Its central claim is that given a comprehensive theory of inferential communication, there is no need for a special theory of translation. This has been praised by some as “wise and right” (Dell Hymes) and condemned by others as “astonishing, not to say perverse” […]

By Helen Gibson Copyright 2023 Description Translation and Stylistic Variation: Dialect and Heteroglossia in Northern Irish Poetic Translation considers the ways in which translators use stylistic variation, analysing the works of three Northern Irish poet-translators to look at how, in this variety, the translation process becomes a creative act by which translators can explore their own linguistic and cultural heritage.

This is done by analyzing so-called “unoriginal literature” and thus expanding the definition of translation. In Western thought, repetition has long been regarded as something negative, […]
