The volume is a collection of twelve carefully selected chapters covering the most in-depth and innovative studies in the field of applied translation studies. The delivered contributions focus on some of the burning issues arising from the research conducted by scholars representing a pallete of international institutions and research centres. The contributions seek to answer some of the problems that need to be tackled by contemporary translation studies, including the aspects of translation training, the status of translations and translators, methods of translations and their impact on the target texts.
