Translation and Relevance by Ernst-August Gutt
Claims that given a comprehensive theory of inferential communication, there is no need for a special theory of translation. This title features a 'Postscript', where the author addresses peer criticism, especially from those involved in the movement of 'translation studies', and attempts to bring out the mandate of translation.
Gutt has written a clear and useful book on translationHe says new things about old problems; he is honest about the successes and failures of previous approaches to translation; and provides new and different examples to illustrate his claims. (William Frawley, Journal of Linguistics) This book says something genuinely new and useful about translation, no small achievement. (Raphael Salkie, Times Higher Education Supplement) This is a remarkable book which is bound to influence future studies in translation. (Detlef Stark, Language)
