Overview

TRANSLATION EQUIVALENCE: An Essay in Theoretical Linguistics. Second, Revised Edition This book's fundamental objective is to explain clearly, knowledgeably and exhaustively what Translation is. Through an in-depth study of the central problem of Equivalence in translation, the author goes about that task by confronting three daunting intellectual challenges with eminent erudition. First, he uses his Performative Linguistics paradigm in Linguistics to demonstrate how the nature of Language is inherently about both its structure and its use. Second, with his Performative Translatology intellectual creation in Translation Studies, which derives from his Performative Linguistics scientific paradigm, he highlights how Translation is a linguistic performance, requiring the knowledge of both language structure and language use. Third, he provides numerous translation examples to underscore the fact that, in accordance with the translatological doctrine of his UWAJEH's Four-Level Model of Translation, every translation act is necessarily the establishment of one or the other of FOUR standard equivalences between texts of a pair of different languages.
