Discusses the four rationales for translating a given literary work, focusing particularly on the translation of poetry and drama, with many examples included from the domain of Biblical translation. Since translations of literary works are undertaken only because there exists a readership who cannot appreciate them in their original languages, it logically follows that the strategy chosen by the translator must be first and foremost conditioned by the needs of the receptor the translator is aiming at.
