Translating Japanese Texts (Paperback)

Translating Japanese Texts is a practical textbook and a precise introduction to problems of, and strategies for, translating Japanese texts. The book is designed for both students and teachers of translation, as well as professional translators. The theoretical foundation is that texts are created by means of interplay between different levels of linguistic material and pragmatic, cognitive, and cultural mechanisms. The book points out that all translation should hence take such factors into consideration. It focuses on Japanese and English and highlights systematic differences between these two languages, but it will also be useful when translating Japanese into other languages, as well as for translation in general. The book will be of interest not only for students and professionals of translation and language studies, but also for people generally interested in Asian languages, cultures, and worlds of thought, all seen through the lens of translation from Japanese into English.
