This collection of papers, which deals with literature, poetry, hospital situations, minority languages, proverbs and so on, gives a good picture of how differences are accommodated in translation across languages but also across cultures. They form a good starting point for comparison between translation practices and translation approaches. They reveal how Indian and Western scholars perceive translation.

Despite this agreement, the actual assessments which serve as gatekeepers for professional translators and interpreters do not always live up to the expectations. The focus of the volume is on the assessment of translator and interpreter skills leading to authorization, accreditation, registration and certification in different countries of the world. Apart from the description of the different assessment systems, the chapters shed light on the intricate social, political and financial issues influencing the choices that lead to a specific kind of assessment.

Science de la traduction · Übersetzungswissenschaft · Translation Studies 13 T Tong-King Lee ranslation is a textual and discursive practice embedded in competing cultural identities and language ideologies; it is a site through which we can observe the operations and implications of language power. In this regard, multilingual societies provide fertile ground for the exploration of translation practice from the perspective of sociolinguistic tension. This book examines the relationship between translation-mediated multi-literate practice and language ideology in multilingual Singapore. It problematises literary translation in light of the power relation between Minhui Xu English Translations of Shen Congwen’s Stories A Narrative Perspective Bern, Berlin, Bruxelles, Frankfurt am Main, New York, Oxford, Wien, 2013. 207 pp. pb.

Shen Congwen (1902–1988) is one of the most acclaimed writers in modern Chinese literature. His works have been translated into more than ten languages and his 44 stories count with 70 different English translations. Adopting a case study method within the framework of Descriptive Translation Studies, the author selects and compares the most translated stories, those with three or more translations, totalling fifteen translations from four stories. The analysis of the texts focuses on Shen’s narrative style – his narrative commentaries and his lyrical narrative mode – to see how his style was re-presented Translating the Multilingual City Cross-lingual Practices and Language Ideology Oxford, Bern, Berlin, Bruxelles, Frankfurt am Main, New York, Wien, 2013. 166 pp., 1 fig., 5 tables New Trends in Translation Studies.

Based on published translations and multilingual anthologies, it investigates the implications of such power relations for intercultural communication through translation.

In addition, the translators’ overt narrative intrusions – their added notes – are also examined. Further, on the basis of Bourdieu’s sociological concepts, especially habitus, this study makes an attempt to interpret the different strategies adopted by different translators, including scholar/non-scholar translators, L1/L2 translators, and translators of the 1930s and 40s and those of the 1980s onwards.
