Language Translation! Literary Translation

All reading is, in a sense, a kind of translation, a search for meanings in a text written by someone else. We realise the impossibility of ever pinning down ‘an original meaning’ whilst enjoying our own interpretations.

With translation of literture it’s not as straightforward as you might think. A good translation needs to be true to the original and able to stand on its own for a new audience.
