Didactics of Translation: Text in Context

Text-based translation approaches

In this section, attention will be directed to those translation approaches which focus on texts rather than words or sentences. Among these approaches, two stand out as particularly interesting, namely, the hermeneutic approach and the text linguistic approach. The two approaches are subsumed under the interpretive model. Given the importance and relevance of the second approach to the line of investigation pursued in this work, more discussion space will be devoted to it.
