The Translation Studies Reader THE TRANSLATION STUDIES READER EDITED BY LAWRENCE VENUTI The Translation Studies Reader The Translation Studies Reader provides a definitive survey of the most important and influential developments in translation theory and research, with an emphasis on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The introductory essays prefacing each section place a wide range of seminal and innovative readings within their various contexts, thematic and cultural, institutional and historical. The third edition of this classic reader has been substantially revised and updated. Notable features include: •Five new readings that sample key trends in translation research since 2000 • A fresh, more accurate translation of Walter Benjamin’s challenging essay, “The Translator’s Task” •Incisive commentary on topics of current debate in the field such as “world” literature, linguistically divided cities, interpreting in wartime, and the internet • A conceptual organization that illuminates the main models of translation theory and practice: instrumental versus hermeneutic. The Translation Studies Reader is essential for anyone pursuing the study and prac- tice of translation. Contributors: Kwame Anthony Appiah, Walter Benjamin, Antoine Berman, Jorge Luis Borges, Annie Brisset, Lori Chamberlain, Michael Cronin, Nicolas Perrot D’Ablancourt, David Damrosch, Jacques Derrida, John Dryden, Itamar Even-Zohar, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Keith Harvey, Roman Jakobson, Jerome, André Lefevere, Philip E. Lewis, Ian Mason, Vladimir Nabokov, Eugene Nida, Friedrich Nietzsche, Ezra Pound, Vicente L. Rafael, Friedrich Schleiermacher, Sherry Simon, Gayatri Spivak, George Steiner, Gideon Toury, Lawrence Venuti, Hans J. Vermeer. Lawrence Venuti, Professor of English at Temple University, USA, is a translation theorist and historian as well as a translator from Italian, French, and Catalan. He is the author of The Translator’s Invisibility (second edition, 2008), The Scandals of Translation (1998), and Translation Changes Everything (2013), all published by Routledge. “This new edition promises to inspire new debates and to remain an essential point of reference for translator training programmes.” Carol O’Sullivan, University of Portsmouth, UK “This authoritative anthology combines a generous selection of classic pronouncements on translation with challenging more recent pieces, offering insightful editorial guidance throughout. No collection of books on translation theory is complete without it.” Dirk Delabastita, Pluri-LL (University of Namur) and CETRA (KU Leuven), Belgium “Since the appearance of the first edition of The Translation Studies Reader, it has been the main textbook in every translation seminar I have taught. The new material in this edition, including pieces on the role of trans- lation in world literature and as (anti)colonial practice, increases still further the value of this anthology for the teaching of translation studies.” Thomas Beebee, Pennsylvania State University, USA Praise for previous editions “There is no other book out there that could fulfil the same function . it is both eminently useful and attractively presented . it’s hard to imagine anyone teaching a course on translation studies without assigning this book to students as a core text.” Susan Bernofsky, Queens College, New York, USA “This book offers a challenging and stimulating perspective on transla- tion theory in the twentieth century. Many of the essays included in the collection are seminal ones, others are exciting, innovative pieces that invite us to reflect again on our understanding and knowledge of the translation process.” Susan Bassnett, University of Warwick, UK “This is a remarkable selection of the most important twentieth century contributions to the principles and procedures of translation, but what makes this volume so valuable are Venuti’s insightful notes that bring these contributions into proper focus for both students and teachers of translation.” Eugene Nida The Translation Studies Reader Third Edition Edited by Lawrence Venuti First published 2000 by Routledge Second edition published 2004 by Routledge This edition published 2012 by Routledge 2 Park Square, Milton Park, Abingdon, Oxon, OX14 4RN Simultaneously published in the USA and Canada by Routledge 711 Third Avenue, New York, NY 100017 Routledge is an imprint of the Taylor & Francis Group, an informa business © 2000, 2004, 2012 Lawrence Venuti, selection and editorial matter; individual chapters, the contributors.

Holmes – a great student of translation and a dear friend. 1 N SPITE OF THE BROAD RECOGNITION among historians of I culture of the major role translation has played in the crystallization of national cultures, relatively little research has been carried out so far in this area. As a rule, histories of literatures mention translations when there is no way to avoid them, when dealing with the Middle Ages or the Renaissance, for instance. One might of course find sporadic references to individual literary translations in various other periods, but they are seldom incorporated into the historical account in any coherent way. As a consequence, one hardly gets any idea whatsoever of the function of trans- lated literature for a literature as a whole or of its position within that literature. Moreover, there is no awareness of the possible existence of translated literature as a particular literary system. The prevailing concept is rather that of “translation” or just “translated works” treated on an individual basis. Is

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY 4.0). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Juliane House has split translation into “overt” and “covert” types. Translation has been classified by Lawrence Venuti into “domestication” and “foreignization”. This research attempted to compare the translation typologies rendered by House and Venuti. House’ and Venuti’s translation typologies are similar in 8 points and differ in 4 ones. Overt translation corresponds to foreignization and covert translation to domestication. Dichotomy is neither superior nor inferior to the others. Keywords: Overt Translation, Covert Translation, Foreignization, Domestication, Cultural Filter, Translator’s Invisibility 1. Introduction Communication is a complex and dynamic process. It has a message sender and a message receiver. The former encodes the meaning into a form that the latter recognizes. The receiver decodes the form back into meaningful messages.

  • Venuti, “Translation and Pedagogy,”
    327 TRANSLATION AND THE PEDAGOGY OF LITERATURE Lawrence Venuti he reflections that follow derive fundamentally from the current predicament of English-language translation in the global cultural economy. English remains the most translated language worldwide, but one of the least trans lated into. The translations issued by British and American publishers com Iprise about 2 percent of their total output each year, approximately 1200 to 1400 books, whereas in many foreign countries, large and small, west and east, the per centage tends to be significantly higher: 6 percent in Japan approximately 2500 books, 10 percent in France 4000, 14 percent in Hungary 1200, 15 percent in Germany 8000, 25 percent in Italy 3000 Grannis 1993. This asymmetry in translation patterns ensures that the United States and the United Kingdom enjoy a hegemony over foreign countries that is not simply political and economic, as the particular case may be, but cultural as well. The international sway of English, furthennore, coincides with the marginality of translation in contemporary Anglo-American culture. Although British and Amer ican literature circulates in many foreign languages, commanding the capital of many foreign publishers, the translating of foreign literatures into English attractsrelatively little investment and notice. Translation is underpaid, critically unrecognized, and largely invisible to English-language readers. The power of Anglo-American culture abroad has limited the circulation of foreign cultures at home, decreasing the domes tic oppommities for thinking about the nature of linguistic and cultural difference. Of course, no language can entirely exclude the possibility of different dialects and discourses, different cultural codes and constituencies.

  • How Comp Lit Continues to Suppress Translated Texts Lawrence Venuti
    boundary 2 Hijacking Translation: How Comp Lit Continues to Suppress Translated Texts Lawrence Venuti Uneven Developments Academia is slow to change. The snag, as Pierre Bourdieu observed, is resistance to new ideas, which favors those that currently enjoy authority in a particular field.1 Academics harbor an anti- intellectualism, ironically, bred by the splintering of intellectual labor into so many institutional com- partments. To specialize, however productive the yield in quantity and depth of knowledge, is to clap on a set of blinders. Take the field of comparative literature. It originated in late nineteenth- century Europe, and from the mid- 1950s onward it was firmly established in the United States, housed in departments and programs at many academic This essay began as a comment on the panel “Debating World Literature” at the Institute for World Literature at Harvard University, June 28, 2013.

  • Venuti on Translation
    The Translator’s Invisibility The Translator’s Invisibility provides a thorough and critical examination of translation from the seventeenth century to the present day. It shows how fluency prevailed over other translation strategies to shape the canon of foreign literatures in English, and it interrogates the ethnocentric and imperialist cultural consequences of the domestic values that were simultaneously inscribed and masked in foreign texts during this period. In tracing the history of translation, Lawrence Venuti locates alternative translation theories and practices which make it possible to counter the strategy of fluency, aiming to communicate linguistic and cultural differences instead of removing them. Using texts and translations from Britain, America and Europe he elaborates the theoretical and critical means by which translation can be studied and practiced as a locus of difference, recovering and revising forgotten translations to establish an alternative tradition. Lawrence Venuti is Professor of English at Temple University, Philadelphia, and has been a professional translator for the past fifteen years. He is the editor of Rethinking Translation: Discourse, Subjectivity, Ideology.
