Translation, Semiotics, and Intertextuality. Towards Socio-religious Transfer Through Translation of Persian Prose Into English

      Аннотация: This book intends to view translation from a semiotic approach. Semiotic translation predominantly deals with signs and aims to maintain semiotic, as well as other pragmatic and communicative properties which any sign displays in the source text. As a result, the semiotic dimension of the source text takes pragmatic readings a step further and enables translators to transfer the entirety of the message into the target text. This book seeks to investigate how socio-religious entities are dealt with in translation of Persian prose into English, and to what extent intertextuality is important in translation of socio-religious entities.
