Translating religion: what is lost and gained?
by None
In this volume, contributors ask what it means to translate religion, both textually and conceptually, and how the translation of religious content might differ from the translation of other aspects of human culture. They propose that questions on the nature of translation find particularly acute expression in the domains of religion, and argue that theoretical approaches from translation studies can be fruitfully brought to bear on contemporary religious studies.
