Inhaltsangabe

These essays address one of the central issues in literary translation: the relationship between the creative freedom enjoyed by the translator and the multiplicity of constraints to which translation is necessarily subject. The translations of selected contemporary texts offer readers insights into how the translator's work mirrors and complements that of the creative writer.
