approaches to translation in English. Christiane Nord, one of the
leading figures in translation studies, explains the complexities
of theories and terms in simple language with numerous examples.
Covering how the theories developed, illustrations of the main
ideas, and specific applications to translator training, literary
translation, interpreting and ethics, Translating as a Purposeful
Activity concludes with a concise review of both criticisms and
perspectives for the future. Now with a Foreword by Georges Bastin
and a new chapter covering the recent developments and elaborations
of the theory, this is an essential text for students of
translation studies and for translator training.
