Sommario/riassunto

Contexts in Translating is designed to help translators understand the varieties of contexts and their importance for understanding a text and reproducing the meaning in another language. The contexts include the historical setting of writing a text, the cultural components that make a text unique, the types of audiences for which the translation is intended, and the most efficient and effective ways of producing a satisfactory representation of the source-language text. The structural levels of language are described, and the principal features of text organization are also explained. In addition, the main features of various books on translation are outlined, and a chapter on basic theories of translation is followed by a selective bibliography.

Sommario/riassunto

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Algebraic and Logic Programming, ALP '97 and the 3rd International Workshop on Higher-Order Algebra, Logic and Term Rewriting, HOA '97, held jointly in Southampton, UK, in September 1997. The 18 revised full papers presented in the book were selected from 31 submissions. The volume is divided in sections on functional and logic programming, higher-order methods, term rewriting, types, lambda-calculus, and theorem proving methods.
