Each chapter comprises an introduction outlining the translation theory or theories, illustrative texts with translations, case studies, a chapter summary, and discussion points and exercises. New features in this fifth edition include: New material to keep up with developments in research and practice; this includes the sociology of translation chapter, where a new case study employs a Bourdieusian approach; there is also newly structured discussion on translation in the digital age, and audiovisual and machine translation; Revised discussion points and updated figures and tables; New in-chapter activities with links in the enhanced ebook to online materials and articles to encourage independent research; An extensive updated companion website with video introductions and journal articles to accompany each chapter, online exercises, an interactive timeline, weblinks, and PowerPoint slides for teacher support. This is a practical, user-friendly textbook ideal for students and researchers on courses in translation and translation studies.
