Contributions from leading figures in translation studies are preceded by a substantial introduction by Lawrence Venuti, in which he presents a view of translation as the ultimate humanistic task - an interpretive act that varies the form, meaning, and effect of the source text. 26 incisive chapters are divided into four parts, covering: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e　\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ecertificate and degree programs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eteaching translation practices\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003estudying translation theory, history, and practice\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003esurveys of translation pedagogies and key textbooks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e　\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe chapters describe long-standing programs and courses in the US, Canada, the UK, and Spain, and each one presents an exemplary model for teaching that can be replicated or adapted in other institutions. Each contributor responds to fundamental questions at the core of any translation course - for example, how is translation defined? What qualifies students for admission to the course? What impact does the institutional site have upon the course or pedagogy? \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003eTeaching Translation will be relevant for all those working and teaching in the areas of translation and translation studies.
