Exploring Translation Theories by Anthony Pym

Exploring Translation Theories presents a comprehensive analysis of the core contemporary paradigms of Western translation theory. Fully revised, this third edition adds coverage of Russian and Ukrainian theories, examples from Chinese, advances in machine translation, and research on translators' cognitive processes.

'Thinking students: start here! This “motivated journey” through the questions and quandaries which give rise to translation theories is an intellectual delightA cornucopia of ideas and critical arguments, it is eminently readable, often witty, sometimes provocative, always thoughtful, always stimulating a response. Stick the last paragraph of the Postscript above your desk!'

Andrew Chesterman, University of Helsinki, Finland

'Anthony Pym is really good at making difficult and complicated theories easy to follow. He did it again in this fully revised edition of Exploring Translation Theories. Thoroughly updated, this book makes an ideal introduction to Western translation theories for students and teachers of all language combinations – and it is a pleasure reading it.'
