Translation is a fundamental human activity; literary translation forms the basis of most readers' acquaintance with world literature. This course will combine theory and practice to approach translation in its full complexity as both an art and a science. In reading, discussion and practice we will draw on the points of view of creative writing, linguistics, and literary theory. The translator adequate background information, including technical terms that have been used previously, and any earlier correspondence or other documents relating to the matter. The same concept applies to screen shots. Unless you translate your software first and provide new screen shots, the English copy locked within your graphics cannot be accessed for translation.

TRSC403 COMPARATIVE LANGUAGE STUDIES
Comparative language studies is designed for students who have a strong interest in acquiring specialized skills in foreign languages. The development of a comparative understanding of modern foreign language structures is essential for translation. Familiarity with major literary works of the languages is important in order to understand the contexts of texts that will be translated, especially literary works. The term comparative language or comparative linguistics refers to the analysis of different language systems in order to determine their histories, evolutions and interconnections. As a comparative language student, you'll study ancient texts, manuscripts and other direct source materials. By comparing languages from different regions, you may draw conclusions about history, religion and population migration, among other cultural factors.
