The essays in this book address one of the central issues in
literary translation, namely the relationship between the creative
freedom enjoyed by the translator and the multiplicity of
constraints to which translation is necessarily subject. The links
between an author's translation work and his or her own writing are
likewise explored. Through a series of compelling case studies,
this volume illustrates the parallel and overlapping discourses
within the cognate areas of Literary Studies, Creative Writing, and
Translation Studies, which together propose a view of translation
as (a form of) creative writing and creative writing as being
shaped by translation processes. The translations of selected
contemporary French, Spanish, and German texts offer readers some
insight into how the translator's work mirrors and complements that
of the creative writer. With the combination of theory and practice
it presented, this book will appeal not just to specialists in
Translation Studies, but also to a wider public.
