Anarchy is What Translators Make of It? Translating Theory and Translation Theories
2021Drawing on the ‘cultural turn’ in Translation Studies, this chapter addresses the problem of equivalence and symmetry in meaning. It problematises how the concept of anarchy was translated into ‘anarsṃi’ in the Turkish translation of Alexander Wendt’s seminal 1992 article ‘Anarchy Is What States Make of It’ and argues that the concept has a very ...

A general theory of translation
Mathematical Systems Theory, 1969The concept of a translation is fundamental to any theory of compiling. Formally, atranslation is any set of pairs of words. Classes of finitely describable translations are considered in general, from the point of view of balloon automata [17, 18, 19].

Abstract This chapter examines the various translation theories and methodologies that inform our readings of the reception of this Sanskrit examined in this volume. It looks at how these theories permitted seemingly contradictory messages. It also asks a more general hermeneutical question regarding translation itself.

Philosophy, 1962
To translate is one thing; to say how we do it, is another. The practice is familiar enough, and there are familiar theories of it. But when we try to look more closely, theory tends to obscure rather than explain, and the familiar practice—an ancient practice, without which Western civilisation is unthinkable—appears to be just baffling, its very ...

I remarked in Chapter I that the fact of a multiplicity of languages raises the question of the extent to which languages are effectively intertranslatable. Since some philosophers, notably Quine, have argued for severe limitations in principle on the enterprise of translation, I concluded that an adequate theory of linguistic representation needed to ...

Herder’s theory of translation not only ultimately inspired but is also superior to the most important current theories of translation, those of Berman and Venuti. It is superior to them largely because it continues a traditional conception that faithfully re-expressing the meaning of the source text is a central criterion of success in translation ...
