This collection of essays brings together a decade of writings on
translation by leading international translation studies expert,
Susan Bassnett. The essays cover a range of topics and will be
useful to anyone with an interest in how different cultures
communicate. Bassnett draws upon her personal experience to explore
issues such as why the same things cannot be expressed in all
languages, why translators in war zones risk their lives for their
work, whether humour can travel across cultures, why translated
menus are often so bad and whether poetry does indeed get lost in
translation.
