Description
Specifications
The unequal relationships observed in translation between major and minor languages can lead to cultural and linguistic uncertainty, as well as provoke a sense of identity loss in those who utilize them. In this book, Anastasia Parianou examines the hegemonic position of global English compared to other languages, measures the pervasive trend of the publishing industry towards an exclusively English culture, and explores the contexts of translation in a rapidly evolving, globalized world.
“Translation from Major to Minor Languages” advances the introduction of attitude studies into translation research, arguing that its contribution to the discipline of translation studies can help translators, particularly those of smaller languages, to better assess the status of their languages, aiding them in gaining greater linguistic and cultural confidence.
