Reihe: Translating Europe

This volume explores dialect translation and the problems facing the translator in bridging cultural divides. The book begins by discussing how to make a wide range of European voices “sing” in translation, then goes on to illustrate the different solutions employed in conveying the foreign concepts and milieu from which these voices spring.
