Note publique d'information : Translation presents a multi-layered process which transforms both the language and
culture of the translator and the perception of the language and culture of what is
translated. The discussion about the extent to which the individual form and culturally
alien content of literary texts allows them to be translated took on a new quality
in Germany around 1800 - particularly in connection with ancient literature; many
of the questions raised at that time still influence the discourse of translation
theory today. The volume presents a collection of papers examining translation as
exemplars of hermeneutic problems, of mediation, of the search for equivalent form
and of creative processes.
