Reflections on translation activity and its results have historically been marked by a greater or lesser distance from the original work. Also over time an attempt has been made to answer the question, what is a good translation? with the formulation of general rules, that is, prescribing. Fortunately, towards the middle of the 20th century, the study of translation activity began to be systematized and the complexity that underpinned it was understood, since various aspects, both linguistic and cognitive, cultural or comparative, converged. From then on, studies on translation abandon the prescription and assume a descriptive and explanatory look, which is related to the norms of the discursive genre that is translated. with the social norms of the public for whom it is translated and with those established between the publisher or client and the translator. From the apparently naive definitions of translation, passing through a historical clipping of the evolution of its study, this book covers the relationship between linguistics and translation, discusses the evolution of the concepts of translation unit and equivalence, exposes the problematization of meaning in the lexicology and terminology, which are fields related to translation, and introduces the relationship between culture and translation.
