b'The notion of\xa0systems\xa0has helped revolutionize\xa0translation\xa0studies since the 1970s. As a key part of many descriptive approaches, it has broken with the prescriptive focus on what\xa0translation\xa0should be, encouraging researchers to ask what\xa0translation\xa0does\xa0in\xa0specific cultural settings. From his privileged position as a direct participant\xa0in\xa0these developments, Theo Hermans explains how contemporary descriptive approaches came about, what the basic ideas were, and how those ideas have evolved over time. His discussion addresses the fundamental problems of\xa0translation\xa0norms, equivalence, polysystems\xa0and social\xa0systems, covering not only the work of Lev\xfd, Holmes, Even-Zohar, Toury, Lefevere, Lambert, Van Leuven-Zwart, Dhulst and others, but also giving special attention to recent contributions derived from Pierre Bourdieu and Niklas Luhmann. An added focus on practical questions of how to\xa0investigate\xa0translation\xa0(problems of definition, description, assessment of readerships, etc.)'
