The Translator's Invisibility by Lawrence Venuti
Locates alternative translation theories and practices in British, American and European cultures which aim to communicate linguistic and cultural differences instead of removing them."One of today's premier translation theorists, Venuti (Temple Univ) focuses his translation-theory lens on globalization...An engaging and valuable investigation into the trends and mechanics of translation." -- C.M. DiFranco, Choice
Praise for the first edition:
'Starting with the English translations of Catullus and concluding with the translations created by Robert Lowell and Zukofsky, Venuti tries to show how the theory and practice of translating literary works has been enacted throughout the centuries.' - World Literature Today
' ... Lawrence Venuti's prose is generally natural, idiomatic and precise. Fluent, even.' - Times Literary Supplement
