It starts with some views on English, the dominant language in Translation as elsewhere, considers the role of translation for minority languages — both a source of inequality and a means to overcome it —, takes a look at translation from less translated major languages and cultures, and ends up with a closer look at translation into Catalan, a paradigmatic case of less translated language, in a final section that includes a vindication of six prominent Catalan translators. Combining sound theoretical insight and accurate analysis of relevant case studies, the contributors to this collection make a convincing case for a more thorough examination of less translated languages within the field of Translation Studies. 58 1 27 2005 7 1 2008 9789027216649 9781588114808 9789027294784 John Benjamins Publishing Company Amsterdam 10.1075/btl.58 http://www.jbe-platform.com/content/books/9789027294784 https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1075/btl.58/html https://www.jbe-platform.com/deliver/fulltext/9789027294784.pdf Marta García González https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8076-5630 1 27 2005 7 1 2008 105 123 10.1075/btl.58.10gon https://benjamins.com/catalog/btl.58.10gon https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1075/btl.58.10gon/html
