"Offering an original reconceptualization of literary translation, Clive Scott argues
against traditional approaches to the theory and practice of translation. Instead
he suggests that translation should attend more to the phenomenology of reading, triggering
creative textual thinking in the responsive reader rather than testing the hermeneutic
skills of the professional translator. In this new guise, translation enlists the
reader as an active participant in the constant re-fashioning of the text's structural,
associative, intertextual and intersensory possibilities, so that our larger understanding
of ecology, anthropology, comparative literature and aesthetics is fundamentally transformed
and our sense of the expressive resources of language radically extended. Literary
translation thus assumes an existential value which takes us beyond the text itself
to how it situates us in the world, and what part it plays in the geography of human
relationships"
