Translation Quality: Does It Exist?
Original language description
The study aims at identifying issues related to translation quality (TQ) evaluation and seek to achieve these goals: (1) to demonstrate that the concept of TQ is socially and historically conditioned and related to the development of translation studies, (2) to address problems traditionally connected with evaluation of TQ and to survey solutions suggested by current research, (3) to argue that TQ is a relative notion and does not exist per se. The solution to the problems of TQ evaluation accepted within the discipline is the specification of assessment criteria based on the translation brief specifications. The paper suggests that it is to be supplemented by the specification of the purpose of assessment and will introduce and discuss the term assessment scenario.
