Abstract

Translation studies have been gaining more visibility in the field of academic research. Theories and conceptions about the definition or meaning of translation still diverge among the authors, in addition, the definition of translation has undergone changes over the years. Some theorists usually divide the translation into two types: literary translation and non-literary translation. This study aims to investigate the different theoretical conceptions about translation and the considerations of several authors about this subject, especially literary translation. In addition, it will highlight the reflections of Hilaire Belloc, one of the most diverse authors in the history of English literature, about general and literary translation in prose and verse.
