Book Synopsis The Art of Translating Prose by : Burton Raffel
Download or read book The Art of Translating Prose written by Burton Raffel. This book was released on 2002-03-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book by Burton Raffel, one of the greatest living translators of works of verbal art into English, presents for both the specialist and non-specialist the core strategies that he employs to translate a variety of important prose texts. In the process he delineates a coherent program or theory that can inform each act of translation. Raffel considers and effectively illustrates the fundamental features of prose, those features that most clearly and idiomatically define an author's style. He ties together theory and practice to establish sound standards for the valuation of prose translations, and he provides examples in considerations of versions of Madame Bovary, Germinal, and Death in Venice.

Book Synopsis Performing Without a Stage by : Robert Wechsler
Download or read book Performing Without a Stage written by Robert Wechsler. This book was released on 1998. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performing Without a Stage is a lively and comprehensive introduction to the art of literary translation for readers of foreign fiction and poetry who wonder what it takes to translate, how the art of literary translation has changed over the centuries, what problems translators face in bringing foreign works into English and how they go about solving these problems. This book will also be of interest to translators, writers, editors, critics, and literature students, dealing as it does, often controversially, with such matters as the translator's fidelity to the author, the publishing and reviewing of translations, the nearly nonexistent public image of the stageless translator, and the value for writers and scholars of studying and practicing translation.

Book Synopsis The Art of Translation by : Jirí Levý
Download or read book The Art of Translation written by Jirí Levý. This book was released on 2011. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jirí Levý's seminal work, The Art of Translation, considered a timeless classic in Translation Studies, is now available in English. Having drawn on adjacent disciplines, the methodology of Czech functional sociosemiotic structuralism and the state-of-the art in the West, Levý synthesized his findings and experience in the field presenting them in a reader-friendly book, which combines the approaches of a theoretician, systemic analyst, historian, critic, teacher, practitioner and populariser. Although focused on literary translation from theoretical, descriptive and historical perspectives, it presents a conceptualization of a general theory, addressing a number of issues discussed today. The 'practical' mission of the book as a theory extending to practice is based on the same historical-dialectic affinity of methods, norms, functions and values, accounting for the translator's agency and other contextual agents involved in the communication process. The book will be useful to translators, researchers, students and teachers in Translation and Literary Studies.
