metadata.value: This essay traces the origins of Translation Studies from the early meetings of the Leuven group in
  the 1970s to the present, showing how from humble beginnings the field has become a world-wide
  phenomenon. Through the decades since the term ‘Translation Studies’ was first coined by James Holmes,
  there has been a shift of emphasis away from a narrowly defined linguistic notion of translation
  to the present conception of translation as an intercultural exchange. The essay looks at the impact
  of the cultural turn proposed by Susan Bassnett and Andre Lefevere in the early 1990s, showing how
  translation studies came to diversify through contacts with postcolonial theory, feminist and gender
  theory, sociological theory and recent developments in comparative and world literature. It is argued
  that while the 1980s was a decade of consolidation for Translation Studies, the 1990s was the decade
  of global expansion of the field. The twenty-first century has seen further expansion, with the growing
  importance of research into audiovisual translation, media translation, and global news translation.
  The essay also considers changing attitudes to translation and to the creative role of the translator,
  showing the current synergies between translation and creative writing. Refs 32.
