LXX Song of Songs and Descriptive Translation Studies. Dries De
Crom intends to stimulate the cross-fertilization of Septuagint
Studies and Translation Studies, particularly the theoretical
framework of Descriptive Translation Studies (DTS). It engages with
concepts and theories from DTS in order to demonstrate their
applicability to the study of the Septuagint. The aim is not to
replace the established methods of Septuagint Studies, but rather
to show that they are fully compatible with descriptive approaches
to translation. The greater part of the volume is dedicated to a
meticulous verse-by-verse comparison between the LXX and MT texts
of Song of Songs. As there is at present no full critical edition
of the Greek texts of Song of Songs, due attention is given to the
most important witnesses to the pre-Hexaplaric text. The textual
study engages with matters of translation technique, textual
criticism, linguistic interference and the interpretation of LXX
Song of Songs. On the basis of this textual analysis, the volume
explores the question of Kaige-Theodotion and LXX Song of Songs
relation to it, as well as the peculiar textual-linguistic profile
of LXX Songs of Songs, against the background of translational
norms, interference, interlanguage and literary code.
