The Knowability Paradox
ISBN: 9780199282593 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The paradox of knowability poses real difficulities to our understanding of truth.

ISBN: 9780521100540 / Angielski / Miękka / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Drawing together the ideas of three very different translators, this book provides a broad perspective on the development of Latin writing about translation.
