'This Handbook marks a watershed in the study of translation and the sacred. Bringing together leading scholars from a variety of disciplines, the volume offers an unprecedented array of approaches to a field that has traditionally been dominated by the Christian Bible. The chapters treat various faith traditions, interpreting as well as translation, new technologies, intersemiotic translation, as well as previously unexplored contexts of translation. In its breadth and sophistication, the handbook makes an enormous and very welcome contribution to Translation Studies, Religious Studies, and a host of related disciplines.'
Brian James Baer, Professor of Russian and Translation Studies, Kent State University, USA
'Finally, we have a much-needed single volume on the complexity and beauty of translating sacred texts. Written by the finest scholars in the field,this volume will be required by anyone faced with the awesome task of sacred translation, and the significance of translated materials.'
Mark Juergensmeyer, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Global Studies, Sociology, and affiliate of Religious Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA, and co-translator of Songs of the Saints of India.
