Download and read online ebook Topics and Concepts in Literary Translation write by Roberto A. Valdeón. This book was released on 2020-06-29. Topics and Concepts in Literary Translation available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This book explores literary translation in a variety of contexts. The chapters showcase the research into literary translation in North America, Europe, and Asia. Written by a group of experienced researchers and young academics, the contributors study a variety of languages (including English, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, French, Japanese, Dutch, German, and Swedish), use a wide range of approaches (including quantitative review of literary translations; transfictional approaches to translation; and a review of concepts such as paratexts, intralingual translation, intertextuality, and retranslation), and aim to expand on existing debates on translation and translation studies as a discipline. The chapters aim to provide a panorama of the variety of topics and interests of contemporary translation studies, as well as problematize some of the concepts and approaches that seem to have become the only accepted/acceptable model in some academic quarters. This book was originally published as a special issue of Perspectives Studies in Translation Theory and Practice.

This book was released on 2017. Translation available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This book introduces students to the theory and practice of translation. It also examines issues that are often debated such as the concept of meaning, translation as an art or science, fallacies of translation, and translation rules and ethics. Chapters in this book can be used to teach any course introducing students to the field of translation. One of the distinguishing features is that there is a set of questions found at the end of each chapter that tests the student's knowledge of the information covered. In addition, some relevant texts are provided for students to translate into the target language, something that is hardly ever found in textbooks on translation. In addition, the book introduces legal and scientific translation and offers real life examples that have been carefully selected for classroom practice.

Within translation studies books on translating conceptually dense texts, such as philosophical or theoretical writings, are remarkably few. Although the translation of literature has been a favourite topic for many decades, the translation of theories on literature has been neglected. The phrase 'theories of translation' is everywhere, but 'translation of theories' is a rare sight. On the other hand, the term 'translation' has become a commonplace in literary and cultural studies - yet usually as a rhetorical figure describing the fate of those who struggle between two worlds and two languages, such as migrants or women. Not much attention has been paid to the role of 'translation proper' in contemporary circulation of ideas. The book addresses these gaps in translation studies and in literary studies for the first time by examining two specific cases where translation strategies and patterns crucially influenced the reception of imported schools of thought. By examining the importation of structuralism and semiotics into Turkish and of French feminism into English, it invites the readers to think about the impact of translation on the transmission of ideas across linguistic-cultural borders and power differentials. It is, therefore, of particular interest to the scholars working in translation studies, in literary and cultural theory, and in gender studies.
