This course introduces students to the key concepts, theories, and applications of translation studies. Students will explore the foundational ideas in translation theory (including the problematic concepts of (un)translatability, equivalence, “faithfulness,” and “fidelity”). Translation will be examined both as process and product, and special attention will be given to the translator’s role, ethics, and visibility.
