Teaching Translation from Spanish to English
While many professional translators believe the ability to translate is a gift that one either has or does not have, Allison Beeby Lonsdale questions this view. In her innovative book, Beeby Lonsdale demonstrates how teachers can guide their students by showing them how insights from communication theory, discourse analysis, pragmatics, and semiotics can illuminate the translation process. Using Spanish to English translation as her example, she presents the basic principles of translation through 29 teaching units, which are prefaced by objectives, tasks, and commentaries for the teacher, and through 48 task sheets, which show how to present the material to students. Published in English.

Traducción y cultura
Este libro constituye una síntesis de las investigaciones llevadas a cabo desde hace años en el terreno de la literatura extranjera traducida en el siglo XIX, y publicada en prensa, en España. Su objetivo esencial reside en dirigir una atención particular a ciertos aspectos de la literatura traducida y analizar su posición en relación al sistema literario de acogida. Esa literatura concierne todos los géneros literarios y se basa en la gran importancia que alcanza la prensa en la segunda mitad del siglo. Esa presencia corresponde a retos importantes: satisfacer a lectores diversos, democratizar la lectura, popularizar géneros como la novela, permitir a autores consagrados - o en vía de serlo - el utilizar la prensa como un laboratorio de escritura y un espacio de legitimación. Por otra parte, el análisis de esas traducciones pone en evidencia los retos ideológicos y culturales de la época, así como la voz del traductor y su trabajo.
