Description: "Introduction to Spanish Translation is designed for a third or fourth year college Spanish course. It presents the history, theory, and practice of Sponlsh-to-Enqlish translation (with some consideration of English-to-Spanlsh translation). The very successful first edition of the text evolved from the author's experiences in two decades of teaching translation in the Department of Language and Foreign Studies of The American University. The emphasis is on general material to be found in current journals and newspapers, although there is also some specialized material from the fields of business, the social sciences, and literature. The twenty-four lessons in the text form the basis for a fourteen-week semester course. This second edition contains an index, a glossary, examples of cognates and partial cognates, and translation exercises for each lesson."--Jacket.
