Arduous Task provides translators and scholars of translation studies alike with novel insights in the two-way transformation that takes place any time interpretation of the other is complicated by experiential or textual traumas.' -- Valerio Ferme Italian Culture - vol 32:01:2014","brand":"MY - University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51862968566103,"sku":"9780802098634","price":61.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780802098634.jpg?v=1759919228","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/arduous-tasks-9780802098634","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
