Course Content (Syllabus)
The course will examine the more important statements on translation from Roman times to the early twentieth century. The approach will be both chronological and geographical and focus on specific traditions including the Latin, British, French and German traditions in translation. Particular emphasis will be given to the history of translation theory and practice in Greece and to the importance of intralingual translation in this tradition. Bible translation will also be examined as one of the main incentives to early thought concerning translation.
Students will become aware of the main issues of concern to translators throughout the centuries and of the important role played by translation in the dissemination of literature, ideas, religion and culture.
