A MORATORIUM ON DYNAMIC-EQUIVALENT BIBLE TRANSLATING

by STEFAN FELBER in Vol. 4 No. 1 / Apr 2018

DOI: https://doi.org/10.35285/ucc4.1.2018.art12



Abstract
In this personal reflection, a congruence or resemblance of critiques of modern theories of language and translation is detected. One of them arose from a thorough study of literature (Ian Robinson), the other from biblical studies (Stefan Felber). The author calls for a moratorium on new translations of the Bible into European languages.
