Table of contents

What is “point of view” in fiction, how is it created and how do the multiple small choices made by translators render it accurately or distort the way the world is seen by characters, “how it feels”? These are the questions Charlotte Bosseaux explores in an interesting but sometimes laboriously slow study adapted from her doctoral thesis (she has also published several articles based on it).
