The Science of Linguistics in the Art of Translation: Some Tools from Linguistics for the Analysis and Practice of Translation
88
 
 
The Science of Linguistics in the Art of Translation: Some Tools from Linguistics for the Analysis and Practice of TranslationIt provides a precise, concise, and comprehensive linguistic description and analysis of what a good translator does in the act of translation. Like good criticism, this book makes one aware of the seemingly mystifying things that go on in translating from one language to another. The concepts are basic to linguistics and the examples are well chosen.

Drawing from more than two hundred examples representing twenty-two languages of wide genetic and typological variety, the author guides the reader through a broad collection of situations encountered in the analysis and practice of translation.
