DOI: 10.1558/equinox.24834

Blurb:

Provides an introduction to the 'problem' of metaphor in translation, looking at various theories and their implications and then presents a case study that illustrates how a careful study of metaphor in translation can thrust into relief the tripartite relationship between the universal, the culturally dependent
and the individual, that is a pivZly conditioned and, therefore, a notable
issue in translation.
