Super-pleased to have a chapter in this new book on Bible Translation. There is a WILD chasm between Translation Studies and Bible Translation, despite the Bible being the world’s most translated text! Lots of historic reasons, but time to bridge the gap! wipfandstock.com/978166677128...

This is worth your time! Impressive article on Heidegger and translation.
My latest paper is now out!
I use Heidegger's existential hermeneutics to explore the ontological relationships between translators and their equipment and environment and argue that translation can re-disclose the world, revealing it in new ways.

Taken aback to see that my article on Latour and translation, with Piotr Blumczynski for The Translator, is topping the charts for the journal’s most-read this year. Really proud of this work www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
