Translation is everywhere and matters to everybody. Translation doesn't only give us foreign news, dubbed films and instructions for using the microwave: without it, there would be no world religions, and our literatures, our cultures, and our languages would be unrecognizable. In this Very Short Introduction, Matthew Reynolds gives an authoritative and thought-provoking account of the field, from ancient Akkadian to World English, from St Jerome to Google Translate. He shows how translation determines meaning, how it matters in commerce, empire, conflict and resistance, and why it is fundamental to literature and the arts.

Nice fabric.
Color: Red Gingham, Size: Large
This was a well made shirt and the fabric was nice. However, I had to return the shirt because it was too small. I read the reviews which said it ran large. So, I ordered down a size, should not have done that. I believe it is true to size, but I’d not a fitter or modern cut.
