Full description: |
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the main directions of the development of translation theory: from the theory of the pre-scientific period, through linguistic and functional theories, to contemporary theories characterized by an interdisciplinary approach and going beyond the hitherto boundaries of translation studies. Practical issues are also discussed during the classes, incl. translation competences, the problem of translation errors or the selection of appropriate translation techniques. If it is not possible to conduct classes in the form of stationary classes, classes will be conducted using distance communication tools, most likely Zoom and others recommended by the University of Warsaw. |
