Recenzje

"The Routledge Handbook of Translation and Pragmatics lives up to its name: It superbly fills a long-felt gap by providing an outstanding overview of a central and expanding approach to Translation and Interpreting Studies. It not only successfully brings together different disciplinary traditions and perspectives, but also proposes an agenda for future developments in pragmatics-oriented translation research. Firmly grounded theoretically and methodologically, and yet highly accessible, this landmark volume will be an essential reference for novices and experts alike."
