Translation
Translation: Theory and Practice: A Historical Reader responds to the need for a collection of primary texts on translation, in the English tradition, from the earliest times to the present day. Based on an exhaustive survey of the wealth of available materials, the Reader demonstrates throughout the link between theory and practice, with excerpts not only of significant theoretical writings but of actual translations, as well as excerpts on translation from letters, interviews, autobiographies, and fiction. The collection is intended as a teaching tool, but also as an encyclopaedia for the use of translators and writers on translation. It presents the full panoply of approaches to translati...

Oxford Readings in the Roman Novel
"Those articles in the collection which concern Petronius' Satyrica include a general interpretation of this fragmentary and problematic text, an exploration of its narrative technique, its relationship to Menippean satire and to recently discovered Greek novel papyri, and the issue of its realism."--BOOK JACKET.

Z kroniki Mnicha Teodoryka nie dowiemy się, co mógł myśleć „przeciętny wiking”. Próżno szukać w niej odwołań do przedchrześcijańskiej kultury czy mitologii, postrzeganych inaczej niż przez pryzmat interpretatio Christiana. Samo posługiwanie się łaciną pociągało za sobą rozmaite konsekwencje w treści i konstrukcji wypowiedzi. Jako autor Teodoryk z pewnością ustępuje pod względem rozmachu intelektualnego swoim sławniejszym kolegom po piórze – Saksonowi i Snorriemu. Wszakże ukończona w latach 1177–1188 Historia de antiquitate regum Norwagiensium konkuruje o zaszczytne miano najstarszej norweskiej kroniki – i już choćby z tego powodu powinna zostać uzna...
