Paperback. As a collection of eight contributions drawing on full-fledged SFL to translation studies, the book includes studies that centre on the theoretical and methodological framework, with instances of translation between different languages being treated as illustrations of phenomena that arise in translation rather than as empirical evidence forming part of a large-scale study. Arranged chronologically to reflect the development of ideas, the eight chapters are all written by Halliday and Matthiessen and are based on Hallidayan SFL rather than other "variants" of SFL. The chapters can all be characterized as text-based, meaning-oriented, system-oriented and metafunctional. They involve different aspects of language operating in context of culture, serving to explore the notion of translation as recreation of meaning in context. Emphasizing theoretical and methodological frameworks over empirical evidence, this book explores translation as a process of meaning recreation within cultural contexts.
