Perspectives on Translation and Interpretation in Cameroon is the
first volume of a book series of the Advanced School of Translators
and Interpreters (ASTI) of the University of Buea. It opens a
window into the wide dynamic and interesting area of translation
and interpretation in a multilingual Cameroon that had on the eve
of independence and unification opted for official bilingualism in
French and English. The book comprises contributions from scholars
of translation in the broad area of translation, comprising: the
concept of translation and its pedagogy, the history of translation
and, the state of the art of translation as a discipline,
profession and practice. The book also focuses on acquisition of
translation competences through training, and chronicles the
history of translation in Cameroon through the contributions of
both Cameroonian and European actors from the German through the
French and English colonial periods to the postcolonial present in
their minutia. Rich, original and comprehensive, the book is a
timely and invaluable contribution to the growing community of
translators and interpreters in Africa and globally.
