Translation Theory and Practice in the Middle Ages is a collection of essays derived from a symposium conducted as part of the Twenty-Eighth International Congress on Medieval Studies (Kalamazoo, 6-9 May 1993). Topics examined in the symposium and reflected in this collection include Translation and Authority, Translation and Gender, Translation and Literality, Translation in Contexts of Bilingualism, and Modern Translations of Medieval Texts. The volume concludes with two essays that consider modern translations of works from the Middle Ages, the romances of Chrtien de Troyes. The essays reveal, according to the editor, that the theory and practice of translation continue to stimulate the same debates and display the same preoccupations that were evident in the theory and practice of translation in the Middle Ages.-from the Introduction

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The collection of essays in Translation Theory and Practice in the Middle Ages arose from a translation symposium at the twenty-eighth International Congress on Medieval Studies at Kalamazoo, Michigan. The authors treat a wide range of topics: translation between Latin and romance languages, the rise of vernacular canonicity, the interplay of Latin and French in the court of France, the theory of translation evident in Alfred the Great's ambitious program of translation of religious works from Latin into Old English, questions of the impact of classical admonitions on medieval translation, interpretive translation used to render traditionally masculine heroes as feminine, the interplay of word and image relating to gender issues, and bilingualism, concluding with translation of medieval texts in the modern era. The scholarship on offer here presents a spectacular collection of modern questions of medieval translation, certainly an essential text for all scholars of related issues.
