This volume examines the various linguistic and cultural problems
which point towards the practical impossibility of conveying in one
language exactly what was originally said in another. The author
provides an exhaustive discussion of Spanish translations from
English texts, including non-standard registers. Equivalence across
languages, that most elusive of terms in the whole theory of
translation, is discussed in terms of linguistic equivalence,
textual equivalence, cultural equivalence and pragmatic
equivalence. Other aspects studied include how translation has been
perceived over the centuries, the differences and the similarities
between a writer and a translator, plus a detailed examination of
translation as process, all of which bring the problems of literary
translation into perspective.
