RESUMEN

The Encyclopedia is a practical and unique resource in a single and accessible volume and is the first encyclopedia of translation studies ever to have been published. It is divided into two parts and is ordered alphabetically for ease of reference: * Part I (General) covers the conceptual framework of the discipline. Categories of entries include: * central issues in translation theory (e.g.equivalence, translatability) * terms which have a specific meaning in translation studies (e.g.imitation, paraphrase) * various approaches to translation (e.g.linguistic perspective, interpretive approach) * types of translation and interpreting (e.g.literary translation, dubbing, and signed language interpreting) * Part II (History and Traditions) covers the history of translation in major linguistic/ cultural communities. It is arranged alphabetically by linguistic region. There are entries on a wide range of languages which include Russian, French, Arabic, Japanese, Chinese and Finnish, and reions including Brazil, Canada and India. The full interpretation of 'translation' means that this part also covers areas such as interpreting, modern techniques like machine translation, and the cultural context of the area in which translation occurred. Many of the entries in this section are based on hitherto unpublished research. Drawing on the expertise of over ninety contributors from thirty countries, this volume offers a comprehensive overview of translation studies as an academic discipline. The contributors examine various forms of translation and interpreting as they are practised by professionals today, in addition to research topics, theoretical issues and the history of translation in various parts of the world. With key terms defined and discussed in context, a full index, extensive cross-references, diagrams and a full bibliography the Routledge Encyclopedia of Translation Studies is an invaluable reference work for all students and teachers of translation, interpreting and literary theory.
