Memes of Translation is a search for coherence in translation theory
based
on the notion of Memes: ideas that spread, develop and replicate, like
genes. The author explores a wide range of ideas on translation,
mapping
the "meme pool" of translation theory with chapters on translation
history,
norms, strategies, assessment, ethics, and translator training. The aim
of
the book is to search for a perspective from which the immense variety
of
ideas about translation can be related.
The unifying thread is the philosophy of Karl Popper. The book proposes
the
beginnings of a Popperian theory of translation, based on the
fundamental
concepts of norms, strategies, and values. A key idea is that a
translation
itself is a theory or hypothesis concerning the source text. This
hypothesis is then subjected to testing, refinement, and perhaps even
rejection, just like any other hypothesis.
