Papers presented on the SSOTT IV- Scandinavian symposium on translation theory.
Abstract
Turku University was the host of the Fourth Scandinavian Symposium on Translation Theory (SSOTT IV) on 2-4 June, 1992. Despite its being called a Scandinavian conference, the meeting also attracted a large number of representatives from outside the Nordic area. The participants numbered about one hundred and represented altogether sixteen countries. The proceedings in this edited volume include the text of the three plenary lectures as well as twenty-six read in the six parallel sessions. The texts are presented largely as supplied by the authors, with only minor corrections and alterations, particularly in the bibliographies. The topic of the meeting, viz. ‘Translation and Knowledge’, allowed a multiplicity of approaches. Consequently the papers reflect a variety of traditions and individual research programmes.
