Sommario/riassunto

Not only has the period of the past seventy years been the richest for literary translation into Scots since the sixteenth century, but it can claim to be the richest in terms of the quantity of work and the range of languages and genres translated. This collection of essays, by



translators and critics, represents the first extended analysis of the nature and practice of modern translation into Scots.
