Publisher Summary 1
Bassnett (Centre for Translation and Comparative Cultural Studies, U. of Warwick, UK) and Bush (vice-president, International Federation of Translators) present 16 chapters in which they asked translators of drama, fiction, and poetry to reflect on the theme of "the translator as writer." Topics include the localization of English by Indian translators, the cultural politics of translation of Scottish literature, new translations of Don Quixote as evidence of the translator as writer, the transformation of Shakespeare to the Czech cultural context, the problems of conveying historical and cultural context to English readers of translated Chinese literature, the mental processes of the translator, and translation as a tool to develop one's own writing.
