譯者養成面面觀

【書籍介紹】

This volume of selected papers covers some of the major issues emerging from the latest developments in translation studies (including interpreting, in a broader sense), such as translation theories, translation technology, literary translation, and the translator’s education and certification. As a human activity that dates back to the very beginnings of civilization, translation has witnessed a phenomenal growth both in industry and in academia. The publisher hopes to reveal, as showcased in this book, that the field of translation studies has developed into a diverse discipline encompassing a wide variety of approaches, methods, and perspectives.

本書收錄多篇翻譯研究論文，集結翻譯名家余光中、國際知名翻譯學者Lawrence Venuti、Valerie Pellatt、陳善偉等作者，主題涵蓋翻譯理論、翻譯科技、文學翻譯、及譯者教育與認證。翻譯本身是極為古老的人類活動，翻譯的專業化則是相當晚近的趨勢，然而在研究深度和廣度、乃至實務層面的探討，都在近年有急速的發展，全球翻譯界皆然。本書希望呈現翻譯研究領域在現今的多樣化面貌：不論是研究策略、方法、亦或分析角度，翻譯學門的不斷擴展值得翻譯研究者和從業人員持續關注。
