Writing a Translation Commentary: A Step-by-Step Guide This comprehensive textbook provides a clear and structured approach to writing a self-reflective translation commentary. It guides students through the process, from source text analysis to setting out a translation strategy, and tackles common challenging issues encountered in translation. The book is enriched with practical resources, including boxes summarising key concepts, tasks and activities, and recommendations for further reading. Online resources are also available on the translation studies portal, along with downloadable versions of sample assessment rubrics, tables, and checklists. With its focus on language mediation beyond written translation, this book offers valuable insights into interpreting, audiovisual translation, localisation, and transcreation.
