Course Objective |
This course introduces the student to the major theoretical frameworks and current issues in discourse analysis. This course aims to provide especially a new/renewed focus on the relevance and usefulness of discourse studies to the field of translation studies. Through an interdisciplinary lens, it tries to (re-) contextualize translations/translators as discourses/discursive agents within the literary and cultural polysystem. |
