Description - Translation Criticism- Potentials and Limitations: Categories and Criteria for Translation Quality Assessment by Katharina Reiss
This is an English translation of Katherina Reiss's contribution to translation studies. Her work first appeared in 1971 and this translation shows more clearly Reiss's treatment of a central theme in translation: how to develop reliable criteria for the systematic evaluations of translations. Using varied examples, the author offers a pragmatic approach to text analysis, a functional perspective on translation and a specific view of the translator. The book covers important aspects of the translation process such as the text, the conditions which determine the translator's decisions and the translator as an individual whose personal interpretation has to be respected. This translation has much of the original presentation, but with the changing terminology some has been changed to make it more accessible to today's reader.
