Routledge The Manipulation of Literature - Literary Translation

Originally published in 1985, this book provides a representative sample of descriptive and systematic approaches to the study of translation. It serves as a vital resource for those interested in the theoretical and practical research surrounding translation as a major branch of Comparative Literature. This edited collection brings together an international group of scholars who advocate for a rigorous scientific approach to translation phenomena. Instead of looking at texts in isolation, the contributors argue for linking the study of specific translated works with a broader methodological framework. This book is an essential read for students, researchers, and academics seeking to understand the systematic study of how literature is translated and manipulated across different languages and cultures.
