Book Description
Is it true that Germans...Are afraid of drinking tap water? Cycle in the nude at the weekend? And do have a sense of humour, after all? Tim Howe should know. He'd always dreamed about all things German. But never of becoming one. Until Brexit. Suddenly the race is on to bond with the burghers of Bavaria. Laugh as Tim bears the brunt of a beer-fuelled human pyramid, sees more than he should in the sauna, and attempts to smash the world cymbal-bashing record at his local Oktoberfest. As the race unfolds, one thing's clear -anyone desperate enough to become Bavarian is going to need a thick skin. And a strong bladder....

Book Description
From St. Jerome to Hypertext is an ambitious attempt to chart the terrain of literary translation - its history, theory and practice. It examines translation from linguistic, extralinguistic and philosophical perspectives and poses a range of important questions, including: the extent to which a linguistically creative original text should be reduced to fit existing norms in translation; whether translators should render the author's voice or the author's vision; how a translator might bridge the gender gap, generation gap, cultural gap, geographical distance, and distance in time; the way in which one translates texts which are themselves multilingual; whether the Bible is a technical book, a primary source, a drama or a revelation; the impact that processes of internationalization, multimedia communication and technological innovations might have on literature in translation. Individual chapters offer detailed treatmemnt of topis such as the relationship between author and translator, wordplay and language games, syntax, cultural biotes, understanding and meaning, and the process of translation.
