The Art of Literary Translation

Considerably revised from their presentations to a symposium at McMaster University, Canada (no date noted), 14 essays (two in German) explore theoretical issues of translating literature, focusing on translating into or out of German. They consider principles, production, and reception; and include such topics as teaching translation, modern German literature in English, satire, and the Viennese cabaret. No index.
