Clear and concise, this textbook provides a non-technical
introduction to the basic and central concepts of translation
theory and practice, including translation briefs, parallel texts
and textual functions, cohesion and coherence, and old and new
information. Colina focuses on the key concepts that beginning
students of translation, practising translators, language students
and language professionals need to understand. Numerous exercises
(discussion, group and individual) at the end of each chapter and
'Practice' activities throughout each chapter allow students to
self-assess their practical understanding of chapter topics. In
addition, examples, figures and text extracts from a wide variety
of world languages contextualise chapter material and produce a
lively and accessible narrative. Suitable for non-specialists with
no prior experience of translation, it will also be of interest to
practising translators, language students and language industry
professionals who wish to gain a wider and up-to-date understanding
of translation.
