Synopsis
The authors show that the best way to develop proficiency in translating is by making students aware of the nature of translation as a problem-solving tool. Through discussion backed by concrete examples and practical applications, predominantly in translating French to English, students will acquire the skills necessary to deal intelligently with a wide range of translation problems. Areas covered include economic journalism, poetry, theater, and film subtitling, as well as consumer manuals and scientific and technical texts. The teachers' pack comes with a useful 120-page handbook and a 30-minute cassette.
