RT Book, Whole DB /z-wcorg/ DS http://worldcat.org ID 24373525 LA English T1 In other words : a coursebook on translation A1 Baker, Mona., PB Routledge PP London; New York YR 1992 SN 0415030854 9780415030854 0415030862 9780415030861 AB This book addresses the need for a systematic approach to training in translation studies by drawing on key areas in modern linguistic theory and relating them systematically to a number of translation problems and strategies. The strategies are identified by an examination of authentic examples of translated texts in a variety of languages. No knowledge of linguistics or foreign languages is assumed. Each chapter begins with an explanation of the key linguistic concepts referred to and ends with a series of practical exercises. By striking a balance between theory and practice, the book provides a sound basis for training professional translators. -- Back cover.
