Many of the contributing authors are undisputed leaders in the field, and all have been prompted to think outside the square, making this a collection readers will want to go back to time and again.\"\u003cbr\u003e-- \u003cb\u003eBert Peeters\u003c\/b\u003e, Australian National University and Griffith University, Australia\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"This collection gathers a number of researchers who engage in a meaningful dialogue with the peculiarities of language and culture in an increasingly globalised world. The contributors problematise the concept of translation as part of the interaction between individuals and societies by using examples such as a Himalayan text, the Bible, \u003ci\u003eAnne of Green Gables\u003c\/i\u003e and the Polish homosexual novel \u003ci\u003eLubiewo\u003c\/i\u003e. The wide range of languages discussed will appeal to those interested in the process and product of translation outside the West.\"\u003cbr\u003e-- \u003cb\u003eRobert A. Valdeón\u003c\/b\u003e, University of Oviedo, Spain\u003c\/p\u003eThis edited book explores languages and cultures (or linguacultures) from a translation perspective, resting on the assumption that they find expression as linguacultural worldviews. Specifically, it investigates how these worldviews emerge, how they are constructed, shaped and modified in and through translation, understood both as a process and a product. The book's content progresses from general to specific: from the notions of worldview and translation, through a consideration of how worldviews are shaped in and through language, to a discussion of worldviews in translation, both in macro-scale and in specific details of language structure and use. The contributors to the volume are linguists, linguistic anthropologists, practising translators, and\/or translation studies scholars, and the book will be of interest to scholars and students in any of these fields.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eAdam Glaz \u003c\/b\u003eis Associate Professor of English and Linguistics at Maria Curie-Sklodowska University (UMCS) in Lublin, Poland.
