Description

Method in Translation History by Anthony Pym offers a critical reassessment of translation history by challenging conventional approaches and frameworks. Pym argues that translation history should centre on translators as people rather than abstract processes, emphasising that researchers are subjectively involved in their field of study. The work posits that cultural systems emerge from social will and that translators operate within intercultural spaces where cooperation through negotiation becomes essential. This Routledge reference examines contemporary questions of importance whilst redefining what 'importance' means in translation studies. By undoing dominant models and proposing alternative perspectives, Pym provides scholars, researchers, and students of translation theory with fresh methodological approaches to understanding how translation functions within society and culture. The book serves as both a theoretical foundation and practical guide for those investigating the history, philosophy, and social dynamics of translation work.

Key Features

Method in Translation History centres translators as people rather than abstract historical subjects, offering a people-focused approach to understanding translation practice.

Pym challenges dominant translation history models by redefining what constitutes importance and relevance in contemporary translation studies research.

The work emphasises that translators operate in intercultural spaces where cooperation and negotiation form the basis of effective communication and cultural exchange.

Routledge's reference publication acknowledges researcher subjectivity, arguing that scholars are inherently involved in their objects of study rather than remaining detached observers.

The book proposes that cultural systems are fundamentally shaped by social will, providing a framework for understanding translation's role in society.

Method in Translation History applies cooperative negotiation models to both translator practice and research methodology, bridging theoretical and practical concerns.
