Resumen: Translation S- and T-universals have been widely discussed in Translation Studies and their psycholinguistic study has been among the priority topics today. The article is focused on the study of translation 'S- universals' (Chesterman 2004) and is based both on the psycholinguistic model of literary translation, which combines today's neuroscience theories of cognitivism and connectionism, and on the experimental data that demonstrate its validity. The model is resulted in a series of experiments held with undergraduate students of translation department. The results of the study proved the idea of existing specific procedural and discursive S-universals in literary translation. As the empirical data showed, these universals maintain the status of common strategies depending on translator's cognitive style (analytical or synthetic) and his dominant channel (visual, auditory, kinesthetic) of source text perception.

Resumen: Translation Studies presents an integrated concept based on the theory and practice of translation. The author adapts linguistic approaches and methods in such a way that they may be usefully employed in the theory, practice, and analysis of literary translation. The author develops a more cultural approach through text analysis and cross-cultural communication studies. The book is a contribution to the development of translation studies as a discipline in its own right.

Resumen: Susan Bassnett traces the history of translation, examining the ways translation is currently utilized as a burgeoning interdisciplinary activity and extending her analysis into developing areas such as developing technologies and new media forms. Translation Studies displays the importance of translation across disciplines.

Resumen: Esta obra introduce dos conceptos claves -reescritura y manipulación- dentro de la teoría de la traducción de los últimos años, haciendo que este libro se haya convertido en un clásico en el ámbito de los estudios de traducción, referente obligado para quien aspire a adentrarse en la senda sugerente y, a la vez, polémica de la llamada "escuela de la manipulación". Su autor parte de la idea de que toda reescritura -entendiendo que la reescritura va desde las antologías y compilaciones hasta las traducciones, pasando por la historiografía, la crítica o la edición de textos- implica una manipulación yque esta manipulación puede ser positiva o negativa según la incidencia que ejerza para perpetuar o para socavar el poder establecido y para que una cultura superior se imponga sobre otra que, a su vez, pugna por liberarse del yugo colonizador.

Resumen: This book is concerned with translation theory. It proposes an all-round view of translation in the terms of modern pragmatics, as articulated in three pragmatic functions (performative, interpersonal and locative) which describe how translated texts function in the world, involve readers and are rooted in their spatio-temporal contexts. It presents a full and up to date view of translation that takes into account thirty years of research in the field of Descriptive Translation Studies. Unlike DTS, the theory provides an account of products and processes.

Resumen: En 1972 J. S. Holmes dibujaba el "mapa" de una disciplina que denominó Estudios de Traducción. El "mapa" de Holmes organiza la disciplina en tres ramas: la teórica, que explica y predice los fenómenos de traducción, la descriptiva, que recoge y sistematiza los fenómenos empíricos objeto de estudio, además de observar y analizar las regularidades del comportamiento traductor, y la aplicada, que se ocupa de la elaboración de materiales y herramientas que faciliten la labor de traducir o las actividades relacionadas con ellas. En este "mapa" el papel de la rama descriptiva es vital, ya que sobre ella descansan tanto la posibilidad de formular una teoría originada en la práctica de la traducción como las aplicaciones que de ella se deriven. En torno a los Estudios Descriptivos de Traducción (EDT) se articulan la teoría y las aplicaciones, cuya propia existencia depende de ellos. Al hablar de los EDT nos referimos con frecuencia a hechos empíricos, constatables, a la realidad que existe frente a la especulación. Los EDT son el puente entre la teoría y la práctica, el punto de partida necesario hacia los estudios aplicados, y constituyen un camino de ida y vuelta entre la práctica real y la que los traductores producirán en el futuro. Son sin duda una potente metodología que ha permitido secuenciar los distintos pasos de la investigación básica en Estudios de Traducción, todo un "protocolo" de actuación investigadora.

Resumen: Las relaciones de los lingüistas con los estudios de traducción, sobre todo en lo que a traducción literaria se refiere, no siempre han estado libres de fricciones y malentendidos. Existen, sin embargo, enfoques y métodos que a partir de la lingüística se pueden aplicar a la traducción de modo satisfactorio, al igual que ciertos conceptos lingüísticos tienen aplicación en la traducción literaria. Algunos de estos planteamientos y métodos figuran en este libro y aspiran a llenar el vacío entre dos conceptos que no tienen por qué ser incompatibles: la traducción literaria y la lingüística.

Resumen: A replacement of Professor Toury`s well-known book on Translation Theory, "In Search of a Theory of Translation" (1980), this book makes a case for Descriptive Translation Studies as a scholary activity and as a branch of the discipline, having inmediate consequences for issues of both a theoretical and applied nature. Methodological discussions are complemented by am assortment of case studies of various scopes and levels, with emphasis on the need to contextualize whatever one sets out to focus on. This is an excellent book for higher-level translation courses.

Resumen: Borges' works deconstruct the time lag conceived in the binaries such as the work's production vs. its criticism, the original text vs. its translation, the source text vs. the derivative nature of the target text, and reality vs. fiction. Benjamin, as Borges' near contemporary, echoes rather the same idea in his post-Nietzschean philosophy of translation. Focusing on the similarities between the views of Benjamin on translation and those of Borges as reflected in his stories as well as his essays, particularly in his well-received essay on translations of Thousand and One Nights and in his meta-fictional short story 'Pierre Menard': Author of the Quixote, this paper aims at bringing the two scholars together in the context of literary translation studies in the postmodern era, where intersemiotic and intertextual collage (in Eco's terminology) and mimicry bear witness to the claim that translation, like other intertextual enterprises, is neither inferior to the other intertextual undertakings such as writing, nor is it detached from language as post-structurally conceived. Furthermore, another core objective of this study is to show how Borges' 'Menard' heralds and truly represents the translation theories built upon the underlying assumptions of deconstructionism since the 1980s. It is concluded that as far as postmodern and poststructuralist theories are concerned, both Borges' and Benjamin's works had predicted the future of literary and translation theories in which the decisive role of translation and translator in the construction of culture and identities cannot be denied.
