Reading Lists

Got an assignment? Have you looked at the reading list to see lecturer recommendations? For most assignments in linguistics and translation, our Discovery Service will give you enough articles to work with. This short video shows you how to get the best from Discovery.
Sometimes, however, you may want to try specific databases or journals - perhaps your lecturer has recommended particular sources as a good way of finding articles or perhaps you just want fewer articles to look at. This section lists key sources relevant to Linguistics and Translation.
A peer-reviewed journal which includes articles on translation theory and practice, as well as discussions of the legal, financial and social aspects of the translator's profession. It also reports on new methods of translating, such as machine-aided translation, the use of computerized dictionaries or word banks.

A peer-reviewed journal which covers the theory, history, culture and sociology of translation.
