The Nature of Translation
Translation is the replacement of an original text with another text. As
such, translation has been regarded as a kind of inferior substitute for the real

handkerchief. But it can also be seen more positively as providing access to ideas
and experiences that, although represented at second hand, would otherwise be
closed off in an unknown language.
