Translation refers to the process of conveying the meaning of a source-language text through an equivalent target-language text. Translation aids in breaking down language barriers by facilitating effective communication of knowledge, information and ideas among people in different countries. Translation studies is an academic discipline that studies the application, theory and description of localization, translation and interpretation. It borrows heavily from numerous fields of study such as computer science, philosophy, terminology, comparative literature, history, philology, semiotics and linguistics. The translation of meaning which occurs within the process of translation is a complex process since meaning is not a singularity. There can be differences in the meaning which was intended and the one which was understood. This book brings forth some of the most innovative concepts and elucidates the unexplored aspects of meaning and its (un)stability within the domain of translation. For all those who are interested in the field of translation studies, it can prove to be an essential guide.
