The Routledge Handbook of Translation and Ethics offers a comprehensive overview of issues surrounding ethics in translating and interpreting. The chapters chart the philosophical and theoretical underpinnings of ethical thinking in Translation Studies and analyze the ethical dilemmas of various translatorial actors, including translation trainers and researchers.

Authored by leading scholars and new voices in the field, the 31 chapters present a wide coverage of emerging issues such as increasing technologization of translation, posthumanism, volunteering and activism, accessibility and linguistic human rights. Many chapters provide the first extensive overview of the topic or present new takes on established areas. The book is divided into four parts, with the first covering the most influential ethical theories. Part II takes the perspective of agents in different contexts and the ethical dilemmas they face, while Part III takes a critical look at central institutions structuring and controlling ethical behaviour. Finally, Part IV focuses on special issues and new challenges, and signals new directions for further study.

This handbook is an indispensable resource for all students and researchers of translation and ethics within translation and interpreting studies, multilingualism and comparative literature.

"A wide-ranging and comprehensive treatment of a key concept that has so far failed to receive sustained attention in translation studies. Bound to become the key reference on the topic for many years to come."

Mona Baker, University of Manchester, UK

"This is a long-overdue comprehensive overview of how ethics and translation are inextricably linked, carefully curated and edited by two of the world’s leading scholars in the field. An invigorating combination of established and fresh voices, it will be an essential resource for researchers and trainers for decades to come."　

Joanna Drugan, University of East Anglia, UK
