Overview

Thinking Arabic Translation is a comprehensive and practical 24-week course in translation method. Adapted from the successful French-based Thinking Translation (1992) it has been successfully piloted at Durham University.

Examples are drawn from a variety of sources, including journalism and politics, legal and technical texts and literary and consumer-orientated texts.
