on the translation process. In each issue of TWO LINES, you will find works from around
the globe that have been organized around a theme.
Every translation we select is accompanied by the author's original text and an

provide new insight into the translator's craft. These introductions, in which our
contributors are free to describe the art and challenges of translation, make TWO LINES
unique among journals of world literature." |

also, for example, of (monolingual) problems of ambiguity, reference and developments in
multidisciplinary communication. Particular attention will be given to new and developing
subject areas such as knowledge representation and transfer, information technology tools,
expert systems and terminological databases. Terminology encompasses terminology both in
general (theory and practice) and in specialized fields (LSP), such as physics; biomedical
sciences; technology; engineering; humanities; management; law; arts; business
administration; trade; corporate identity; economics; methodology; and any other area in
which terminology is essential to improve communication". |
