Translating International Legal Instruments --List of Cases --Bibliography --IndexThe translation of law has played an integral part in the interaction among nations in history and is playing a greater role in our increasingly interconnected world today. The book investigates legal translation in its many facets as an intellectual pursuit and a profession. It examines legal translation from an interdisciplinary perspective, covering theoretical and practical grounds and linguistic as well as legal issues. It analyses legal translation competence and various types of legal texts including contracts, statutes and multilateral legal instruments, presents a comparative analysis of the Common Law and the Civil Law and examines the case law from Canada, Hong Kong and the European Court of Justice. It attempts to demonstrate that translating law is a complex act that can enrich law, culture and human experience as a whole.Topics in translation ;33.LawInterpretation and constructionLawLanguageLawTranslatinglegal issues.legal texts.legal translation.legal translator.professional translator.translating law.translation studies.LawInterpretation and construction.LawLanguage.LawTranslating.340Cao Deborah1962-958364MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784010003321Translating law3797073UNINA
