Translation by Basil Hatim

'Translation' is a comprehensive resource book offering students and researchers support for advanced study. Material from the Internet, advertisements, religious texts, literary and technical texts is considered to examine the theory and practice of translation from a variety of linguistic and cultural angles.

'To complement and enrich this truly innovative advanced resource book, there is a very useful website where students can browse in search of further text samples, translations, and updated information on developments and events pertaining to the discipline of Translation Studies' The Linguist List

'Fills a space that I'm sure many translation academics feel needs to be filled ... This book will help to define and shape translation pedagogy for the next few years. In brief, I see it as Mona Baker's In Other Words ten years on.' - Stuart Campbell, University of Western Sydney

'This truly comprehensive work is doubly innovative: it goes beyond the abstract presentation of translation issues and concepts and it is interactive, containing many exercises and readings to help readers explore all aspects of translation theory and improve their translation skills. Add to this the use of English back translation ... and you have a resource that is destined to enjoy broad appeal and become a primary textbook for undergraduate and graduate programs in translation, modern languages and linguistics.' - Malcolm Williams, University of Ottawa, Canada
