Abstract

After a short, comprehensive introduction to the modern concept of functional translation, the author uses many examples of this concrete transformation. German, English, Spanish and French titles of diverse texts serve as illustrations of pragmatic, intercultural and interlinguistic translation problems. For the solution to these problems, the functional approach must also be 'loyal’, which is to say it respects the intention of the original author. [Based on publisher information]
