A practical guide to translation for language students This book is for students of translation, languages and linguistics who would like to gain a clearer understanding of the relationships between these subjects. It uses explanation, discussion and practice to show how knowledge of language and of translation can help a translator work more effectively. Chapters on the development of translation studies in the west and on contemporary approaches to translation provide the disciplinary context for study of translation products and processes, while the book’s flexible and forward-looking approach to meaning and translation place the more applied chapters in their theoretical and academic context. Malmkjaer presents meaning as a temporary relationship between participants in language events, and translation as a creative activity that contributes to these events.
