Critics Review
It takes ingenuity as well as courage to return to a familiar question with new urgency, as Olohan does when asking which practices translators and translation scholars designate as “translation.” By thinking deeply through the significance of the practice turn, Olohan provides a fascinating, new perspective on problems at the very heart of Translation Studies.
