Description
Research Methodologies in Translation Studies by Gabriela Saldanha and Sharon O'Brien provides a comprehensive guide for scholars and researchers exploring translation studies. This interdisciplinary field requires a nuanced approach, as traditional methods may not be directly applicable. The book addresses the needs of students and experienced researchers alike, offering a discerning and critical framework for scholarly investigation. It covers core principles of reliability, validity, and ethics, essential for any researcher, and provides insights into how different research methods can be integrated to explore new questions. Divided into four chapters, the book examines translation products, processes, participants, and context, as well as issues of dissemination and producing a research report. This detailed guide is ideal for those seeking to understand the complexities of translation studies and develop a robust methodology for their own research.
