This volume brings together a selection of papers presented at an
international conference on Translation Studies in Barcelona in
1998. The papers illustrate four areas that are of particular
interest in translation research today in Europe, Asia and Latin
America. The purpose of the first section, 'Investigating
Translation Paradigms', is to reach a critical revision of existing
paradigms and to develop new ones in approaching the translated
text. The second section, 'Investigating the Translation Process',
focuses on the skills, knowledge and strategies that make up
translation competence. The third section, 'Investigating
Translation and Ideology' addresses not only the 'invisible'
influence of ideologies on the translator, but also the role of
translators in transmitting ideology. The fourth section,
'Investigating Translation Receivers' envisages translators as
communicators caught between the opposing trends of localisation
and globalisation. This tension can be seen in the selection of the
papers, some of which reflect on research carried out in recently
established translation centres in Spain, while others discuss the
latest work of scholars from long established centres in other
countries.
