Již čtvrté vydání dosud nepřekonané práce české teorie překladu, na které vyrůstaly generace překladatelů. Jiří Levý zevrubně popisuje překladatelský proces, zabývá se estetickými problémy překladu a rozebírá i oblasti jako překládání knižního názvu, překlad dramatu a poezie. Vychází z hlubokých znalostí literárněvědných i lingvistických a látku podává velmi srozumitelně. Kniha může posloužit nejen studentům a absolventům translatologie, literárním vědcům a kritikům, ale i zájemcům z řad veřejnosti. Aktuálnost díla dokládá i nedávné anglické vydání v prestižním nakladatelství John Benjamins. Kniha obsahuje novou předmluvu Zuzany Jettmarové, bibliografii a doplněný rejstřík.

Timer is not included but if you want to make the game even more fun, use a watch or mobile phone to count down 60 seconds for every question.


Example:
