Reviews

Suitable for undergraduate and graduate students interested in the fields of translation, linguistics, and biblical studies [...] His exploration of Relevance Theory provides valuable insights for interpreters and translators of the biblical text. Joshua P. Steele, Beeson Divinity School, in Theological Book Review (tbr), Vol. 25, No.2, 2013


Suitable for undergraduate and graduate students interested in the fields of translation, linguistics, and biblical studies [...] His exploration of Relevance Theory provides valuable insights for interpreters and translators of the biblical text. Joshua P. Steele, Beeson Divinity School, in Theological Book Review (tbr), Vol. 25, No.2, 2013 This book's often droll and entertaining style makes it a pleasurable read, in a way that much writing in Translation Studies is not. ---Kenneth A. Cherney Jr, Wisconsin Lutheran Quarterly, 112.3, Summer 2015
