ABSTRACT

Modern hermeneutics centers on the relationship between the “author, text, and reader” in interpretation. Various schools emphasize different aspects, shifting perspectives in translation studies from the author’s original intention to the reader’s experience, acknowledging translator subjectivity, and focusing on textual analysis. Traditional standards of “faithfulness” and “equivalence” have evolved into diverse standards advocating individual differences, promoting tolerance and plurality in translation.
