Propõe uma reflexão ampla sobre o exercício e os mistérios inerentes ao ofício do tradutor. O livro reúne entrevistas com Estela dos Santos Abreu e Eurídice Figueiredo, responsáveis por verter ao português, respectivamente, os livros A ilha da chuva e do vento (em 1986) e Joãozinho no Além (em 1988). Apresenta também uma entrevista com a escritora guadalupense Simone Schwarz-Bart, autora das referidas obras, cuja escrita engajada é fortemente ancorada nos costumes caribenhos. Os capítulos revelam rituais, práticas, prazos, dificuldades e repercussões dos trabalhos das tradutoras entrevistadas, descortinando aspectos vitais para que se alcance qualidade e o papel estratégico que a tradução desempenha no processo de receptividade de uma obra pelo público. Tradução em (ent)revista também é um testemunho dos processos que envolvem a tradução de obras caribenhas no Brasil, estimulando debates e estudos sobre a área.

This book attempts to explore style—a traditional topic—in literary translation with a corpus-based approach. A parallel corpus consisting of the English translations of modern and contemporary Chinese novels is introduced and used as the major context for the research. The style in translation is approached from perspectives of the author/the source text, the translated texts and the translator. Both the parallel model and the comparable model are employed and a multiple-complex model of comparison is proposed. The research model, both quantitative and qualitative, is duplicable within other language pairs. Apart from the basics of corpus building, readers may notice that literary texts offer an ideal context for stylistic research and a parallel corpus of literary texts may provide various observations to the style in translation. In this book, readers may find a close interaction between translation theory and practice. Tables and figures are used to help the argumentation. The book will be of interest to postgraduate students, teachers and professionals who are interested in corpus-based translation studies and stylistics.  .

The second part Applied Cultural Models comprises four papers discussing cultural conceptualizations of language in the educational context, particularly of Foreign Language Teaching, in online communication and communication in deaf communities. .

"This collection engages with translation and interpreting from a diverse but complementary range of perspectives, in dialogue with the seminal work of Theo Hermans. A foundational figure in the field, Hermans's scholarly engagement with translation spans several key areas, including history of translation, metaphor, norms, ethics, ideology, methodology, and the critical reconceptualization of the positioning of the translator and of translation itself as a social and hermeneutic practice. Those he has mentored or inspired through his lectures and pioneering publications over the years are now household names in the field, with many represented in this volume. They come together here both to critically re-examine translation as a social, political and conceptual site of negotiation and to celebrate his contributions to the field. The volume opens with an extended introduction and personal tribute by the editor, which situates Hermans's work within the broader development of critical thinking about translation from the 1970s onward. This is followed by five sections, each addressing a theme that has been broadly taken up by Theo Hermans in his own work: Translational Epistemologies; Historicizing Translation; Performing Translation; Centres and Peripheries; and Digital Encounters. This is important reading for translation scholars, researchers and advanced students on courses covering key trends and theories in translation studies, and those engaging with the history of the discipline"-- Provided by publisher.
