Teaching Literature in Translation: Pedagogical Contexts and Reading Practices

Meets a real need for a comprehensive and unified guide to teaching literature in translation. Presents a variety of pedagogical approaches and examples from a wide variety of world languages and literary traditions, as well as modes of writing (prose, poetry, drama, film, and religious and historical texts) with the aim that many of the pedagogical approaches and strategies can be easily adapted for use with other works and traditions. Provides an invaluable set of resources for lecturers and instructors within translation studies and literature, especially essential for those teaching texts from languages and cultures with which they may have little or no familiarity.
