Translating as a Purposeful Activity
This bestselling text is a comprehensive overview of functionalist approaches to translation in English. Christiane Nord, one of the leading figures in translation studies, explains the complexities of theories and terms in simple language with numerous examples. Covering how the theories developed, illustrations of the main ideas, and specific applications to translator training, literary translation, interpreting and ethics, Translating as a Purposeful Activity concludes with a concise review of both criticisms and perspectives for the future. Now with a Foreword by Georges Bastin and a new chapter covering the recent developments and elaborations of the theory, this is an essential text for students of translation studies and for translator training.
The Known Unknowns of Translation Studies
After several paradigm changes and even more turns, after fights about scholarly territories and methodological renewal, after intra- and interdisciplinary discussions, Translation Studies continues to produce a large number of publications dealing with the challenge of defining itself and its object, with the borderlines of both the discipline and the object, with ways of interacting with related (sub)disciplines. This publication gathers contributions from established TS scholars (all former CETRA Chair professors) about the topics that will very probably dominate the near future of the discipline. This is an extended and updated version of a Target special issue with the same title that was published in 2012 (24:1).
Don Quijote, cosmopolita
En el presente volumen, varios investigadores de diferentes universidades y centros de investigación y de enseñanza españoles y extranjeros ofrecen nuevos estudios monográficos sobre algunos aspectos y ejemplos representativos de la recepción de Don Quijote fuera de España, en las obras literarias y artísticas de la cultura europea, occidental y universal en general. Con este libro, que incluye trabajos de diversos ámbitos y áreas de conocimientos como Filología Alemana, Árabe, Francesa, Hispánica e Inglesa, Filosofía e Historia del Arte, entre otros —y que constituye la continuación de la monografía Don Quijote por tierras extranjeras. Estudios sobre la recepción internacional de la novela cervantina (Ediciones de la Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha, 2007)-, se pretende profundizar, desde una perspectiva comparatista, panorámica y multidisciplinar, en el conocimiento de la importante influencia que la novela sobre el Caballero de la Triste Figura ha ejercido sobre la literatura y la cultura de otros países, aportando, además, nuevos datos y resultados sobre algunos de los aspectos menos conocidos de esta materia.
Don Quijote en los cinco continentes
Con la publicación del presente monográfico se completa una serie de cuatro volúmenes sobre la recepción internacional de la novela sobre el Caballero de la Triste Figura, editados por la Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha. Siguiendo el mismo enfoque y los mismos planteamientos metodológicos de los títulos anteriores —Don Quijote por tierras extranjeras (2007), Don Quijote, cosmopolita (2009) y Don Quijote en su periplo universal (2011)—, Don Quijote en los cinco continentes ofrece una selección de veintiún estudios innovadores sobre ejemplos representativos y aspectos concretos de la recepción que la obra maestra de Cervantes ha tenido, a lo largo de los últimos cuatro siglos, ...

Fach - Translat - Kultur
Die beiden zusammengehörigen Bände bieten einen breiten und aspektereichen Einblick in die drei Theorie- und Praxisbereiche Fach, Translat und Kultur. Diese Begriffe repräsentieren in den agilen modernen Gesellschaften die aktuell zentralen Handlungsbereiche, in denen Sprache, Kommunikation, Verhalten, Interaktion und Globalität eine dominante Rolle spielen. Die hier versammelten Arbeiten aus Wissenschaft und Angewandtheit beantworten prinzipielle Fragestellungen, verfolgen interdisziplinäre Ansätze und sind methodologisch auf Aspekte der Vernetzung und des Systemischen, der Ganzheitlichkeit in der Sichtweise, ausgelegt. So bieten sich hier vielfältige Erkenntnisse an, die auch über die Fachkommunikationsforschung, Translatologie und Kulturwissenschaft hinaus von grundsätzlicher Bedeutung und weiterführendem Interesse sind.

Translation Competence and Language Contrast – A Multi-Method Study
Experience in translation does not always correlate with the quality of the target text. Also, the evaluations of translation work vary considerably among evaluators. Why not shifting the focus of attention from the final translation to the underlying translation process when assessing translation competence? Iryna Kloster applies a multi-method approach to model the translation competence based on empirical parameters, such as gaze behavior, dictionary use, revisions as well as subjective evaluations of comprehension and translation difficulty. Eye tracking, keystroke logging, screen recording and retrospective interviews were applied to collect data in the experimental groups consisting of novice and semi-professional translators. As a consequence, the author suggests using language contrasts for researching translation competence. She draws conclusions based on hypotheses testing, provides justification by triangulating quantitative and qualitative data and discusses the results in the light of empirical translation studies as well.
La Traductologie de corpus
L'utilisation des corpus électroniques (ou banques de données linguistiques) en traduction et en traductologie est de plus en plus répandue. Les différents corpus existants (monolingues, bilingues, comparables, parallèles...) peuvent en effet servir d’outils d’aide à la traduction en apportant des informations complémentaires à celles fournies par...
