University Library Sep 3, 2006

For a start one could look at the entries in a big university library using the search terms "translation studies", "translation theory", "translation quality" etc.


But that's exactly the point, Heinrich. If you look up books in a library, you'll find shelves full of interesting titles. But which are the good ones? And - if you want to buy them instead of borrowing them from the library - wouldn't it be great to have recommendations from colleagues?

Instead of reading through the whole library, and buying everything that is offered online, to find the ones you find useful, why not gather experiences here?

I think this list could help us all share experiences, avoid spending money on useless paper, find new sources of knowledge, and probably inspire our relatives when they don't know what to get for our next birthday

International Literature? Sep 3, 2006

Ok, this might go a bit too far now, but it is something else I've been thinking about:

I'd love to hear recommendations for literature of different countries. Seeing Niraja's and Ritu's replies here reminds me that I wanted to read contemporary Indian literature (preferably with English as the original language, but not necessarily).

This doesn't really have to do with the original idea in this thread, but I'd love to see a recommendation section for literature of different countries. Does anybody know if this exists somewhere?

Thanks,

Some contemporary Indian writers Sep 3, 2006

Hi Stefanie,

Some contemporary Indian writers whose books I enjoy are Amitav Ghosh, Arundhati Roy, Rohinton Mistry and Vikram Chandra. They all write in English.

Best regards,
Niraja

Thank you for these recommendations, Niraja!

I recently bought books by V.S.Naipaul and Bharati Mukherjee. Haven't read them yet, though. I loved Arundhati Roy's 'God of small things'. I couldn't stop reading, and towards the end, I had to cry. Truly a great book.
