✦ Synopsis

In this book, translators from different linguistic backgrounds discuss multilingual translation in the European Union. Articles stress the political dimension of multilingualism and the professional role of the translator as communicator, on which much of the credibility of a union "speaking with 1 voice in many languages" will ultimately depend.
