Theoretical Explorations in Translation Studies: Readings Empowered by Systemic Functional Linguistics

The book is a collection of eight seminal works on translation studies empowered by full-fledged Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL). The chapters can all be characterized as text based, meaning-oriented and metafunctional, involving different aspects of language operating in the context of culture, serving to explore the notion of translation as recreation of meaning in context. It is a book that centres on the theoretical and methodological framework in this research area, with instances of translation between different languages being treated as illustrations of phenomena that arise in translation. Arranged chronologically to reflect the development of ideas and based on Hallidayan SFL, the chapters are all written by M.A.K. Halliday and Christian M.I.M. Matthiessen.
