Angļu Translation Studies which is a relatively new field of linguistic research has established itself as a valuable and independent perspective for looking not only at the process and product of translation but for ensuring a broader insight into the very nature of language itself. Research in Translation Studies is harmoniously aligned with the general development of the modern world and its features: dynamic existence, cross-border activities and experience (thus, the necessity for contrastive case studies remains high), interdisciplinary research and expertise, environment of doubts and relativity, constant deconstruction of the former dogmas and axioms. Thus, various areas of research tend to unite efforts and results of studies in order to ensure full scenery and promote the positive effects of synergy. This is also true regarding the humanities: for instance, linguistic insight is a well-established approach in philosophy, and linguistic aspects have recently become an area of interest in literary science and vice versa. |
