This textbook covers foundational concepts; key figures, groups, and events; tools and resources for non-professional translation tasks; and the types of translation that non-translators are liable to encounter. Each chapter includes practical activities, annotated further reading, and summaries of key points suitable for use in classrooms, online teaching, or self-study. There is alsoa glossary of key terms. De-mystifying Translation: Introducing Translation to Non-translators is the ideal text for any non-specialist taking a courseon translation and for anyone interested in learning more about the field of translation and translation studies.
