It also examines the assessment of translated works by reviewers from various platforms, ranging from popular platforms open to public reviews to mainstream broadsheets and cultural supplements to specialized literary magazines. Drawing inspiration from Lawrence Venuti's The Translators Invisibility: A History of Translation, which explores the reviewing of translations, the book challenges the notion that fluency is the primary criterion for reviewing translations, ultimately rendering the translator \"invisible.\" By providing a timely and comprehensive update to Venuti's study, the book sheds light on the status of translation in book reviews and offers valuable insights into the evaluation of translated works.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 338g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781803740300\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: New ed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martyn Gray","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":46518766043386,"sku":"9781803740300","price":40.16,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1722712073562_book.jpg?v=1722852303","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/making-the-invisible-visible-reviewing-translated-works-9781803740300","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
