圖書(shū)簡(jiǎn)介
上個(gè)世紀(jì)迄今的翻譯研究盡管碩果累累，對(duì)譯者的研究也取得了諸多成果，但這些研究更多地側(cè)重于學(xué)術(shù)視角(如譯者主體性、主體間性等)，而對(duì)譯者在實(shí)際的翻譯市場(chǎng)中怎么做，譯界的關(guān)注程度似乎不足。但本書(shū)則針對(duì)這一狀況，以翻譯市場(chǎng)為宏觀背景，給譯者提供了極其珍貴的指導(dǎo)，填補(bǔ)了這方面的空白。本書(shū)自1993年首次出版以來(lái)，到2004年5月已是第四版，是作者多年來(lái)實(shí)踐經(jīng)驗(yàn)的結(jié)晶。十多年來(lái)，本書(shū)受到了讀者的普遍歡迎。本書(shū)在前三版的基礎(chǔ)上，緊跟時(shí)代發(fā)展，站在一個(gè)全新的角度，旨在給那些沒(méi)有或很少有商業(yè)經(jīng)驗(yàn)的翻譯從業(yè)者提供全面指導(dǎo)，例如譯者所需具備的資格、如何創(chuàng)辦翻譯公司、譯者的工作環(huán)境、怎樣索要報(bào)酬等等。本書(shū)內(nèi)容充實(shí)，注重實(shí)用，確實(shí)值得一讀。
