I just came across this fascinating book (more appropriately a monograph) on language translation and couldn’t wait to share it with you dear readers. Its called “On Translation” and it’s been written by John Sallis.
Mr. Sallis approaches the subject of translation in a unique manner. He takes his readers through a philosophical exploration of language translation through four different perspectives and enables them to discover the richness of the process like never before.
I have always loved reading books and since language translation is my profession, as well as my first love I was really delighted to know about such a study. And as far as I know this is a first for this underestimated field.
I would urge everyone interested in language translation to go ahead and read it. You can also check out the fascinating official blog for the book - http://philosophyoftranslation.blogspot.com.
