Title: Domestication or Foreignization: Strategies in the Process of Translation
Abstract: Domestication and foreignization are binary strategies used in the decision-making process of translation. Although domestication and foreignization are closely related to literal translation and free translation, they have different implications. Besides, domestication and foreignization are not isolated from each other. Instead, they are a continuum. Which one should be used in the specific process of translation is determined not by the translators subjectively but by some relevant parameters which can serve as evidence to terminate the debate over which has priority to the other.
