Product Description

Product Description

Integrating translation theory and the practical skills required by the working translator, Doug Robinson draws on a broad range of contemporary translation theories and integrates the latest in learning theory, memorization skills and brain science. In addition, the book provides the type of practical information and advice that novice translators need, including: how to translate faster and more accurately; how to deal with arising problems; how to deal with stress; and how the market works. A wide variety of lively activities and exercises are included to facilitate the learning of both theory and practice. The text also includes a detailed teachers guide which contains suggestions for discussion and activities and hints for the teaching of translation. This book has been specifically designed for introductory undergraduate courses in the theory and practice of translation. It should also be of interest to professional translators and scholars of translation and language.
