Reihe: TRANSÜD. Arbeiten zur Theorie und Praxis des Übersetzens und Dolmetschens

This volume is a collection of articles presented at the conference Translation Studies: Moving In - Moving On in Joensuu, Finland, December 2009. The papers deal with the question of how and under what circumstances target cultures accept or reject concepts, ideas or linguistic features that cross cultural and linguistic borders through translation. The discussions rely on varying empirical data including advertisements, audiovisual translations, encyclopedia as well as translations of literary prose, drama and history texts. As the multiplicity of the data implies, the methodologies used also vary widely from corpus-linguistic methods to analysis of paratexts, and from crosslinguistic analysis of source and target texts to contextualization of target texts in their respective target cultures. The target cultures and languages dealt with in the articles include Catalan, Chinese, Czech, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Russian and Spanish.

Hannu Kemppanen and Pekka Kujamäki are professors in Foreign Languages and Translation Studies at the University of Eastern Finland, Joensuu. Leena Kolehmainen and Esa Penttilä work as post-doctoral research fellows at the same department.
