Almost everything that one claims about meaning is likely to be
questioned or disputed. Translation studies also abound in numerous
controversies. However, there is no doubt that translations entail
a transfer of meaning, even if the exact sense of the word
"meaning" remains vague. The same applies to the term "translation
equivalence". This book is an attempt to cope with conceptual,
terminological, theoretical, and practical difficulties resulting
from this nebula of issues. Numerous examples of translated legal,
religious and artistic texts are provided to substantiate the claim
that translation equivalence, except in the most trivial sense of
the term, is indeed a delusion. The book is addressed to all those
persons who are interested in mutual relations between semantics
and translation studies.
