This is one of the most complete if not the best coverage on the subject, written by notable scholars and practitioners in the field.

Publisher: The Chinese University of Hong K: 2001-08-05

ISBN: 9622019978

Condition: VeryGood

The compilation of this encyclopaedia was prompted by the growth of translation as an academic subject in Hong Kong, this busy entrepot city where the transfer between the Chinese and English languages spans all aspects of life. At the same time translation has been attracting increasing attention universally among students of the humanities for its historical role in introducing and relating one culture to another, and its ways and means of coping with the seemingly impossible task of accurately reflecting one "thought-world" in terms of another. Hence this encyclopaedia serves a dual purpose...

Condition: VeryGood

The rapid, recent, and international growth of interest in problems of translation has scarcely registered in literature departments in the United States. Here translation is still largely seen as a didactic exercise, and translation studies is regarded as groping toward rules about how to carry an utterance from one language into another. In Europe and Israel, however, university centers have been established to further the "science of translation" and the training of professional translators, resulting in an outpouring of practical and theoretical literature on the domain of translation.

The Poetics of Translation: History, Theory, Practice

By: Barnstone, Willis

Price: $3.50

Publisher: Yale University Press: 1995-02-22

Seller ID: M0300063008Z3

ISBN: 0300063008

Condition: Good

In a lucid, pioneering volume, Willis Barnstone explores the history and theory of literary translation as an art form. Arguing that literary translation goes beyond the transfer of linguistic information, he emphasizes that imaginative originality resides as much in the translation as in the source text--a view that skews conventional ideas of artistic primacy.

Barnstone begins by dealing with general issues of literalness, fidelity, and originality: with translation as metaphor, aesthetic transformation, and re-creation. He looks as well at translation as a traditionally stigmatized gen...

Hermeneutics Ancient and Modern (Yale Studies in Hermeneutics)

Price: $6.42

Publisher: Yale University Press, New Haven: 1995-03-20

Seller ID: M0300063032Z2

ISBN: 0300063032

Condition: VeryGood

In this wide-ranging meditation on the nature and purpose of hermeneutics, Gerald L. Bruns argues that hermeneutics is not merely a contemporary theory but an extended family of questions about understanding and interpretation that have multiple and conflicting histories going back to before the beginning of writing.

What does it mean to understand a riddle, an action, a concept, a law, an alien culture, or oneself? Bruns expands our sense of the horizons of hermeneutics by situating its basic questions against a background of different cultural traditions and philosophical topics. He disc...
