This book is intended as a guide for student who are required to undertake research in Translation Studies and present it in written and/or oral form. It is not an introduction to Translation Studies as such; we assume that readers already have a basic familiarity with the field. The Map aims to provide a step-by-step introduction to doing research in an area which, because of its interdisciplinary nature, can present the inexperienced researcher with a bewildering array of topics and methodologie. We have called it The Map because it is designed to help you find your way through a relatively new and uncharted terrain.
