Whitney,
There is a translation BBS called Transnet. You can reach it by having your
modem dial 217-384-5101. An extensive bibliography of books, articles on
translation studies is provided. It does encompass more than literary
translation, but it may be a good start. Leave a message to the SYSOP and
to indicate you heard about it on HUMANIST, and you'll get the download
priviledges you need to transfer that file.
There is also a discussion group on Internet called LANTRA-L which deals
with translation theory, etc. To subscribe, send the usual message to
LANTRA-L@finhutc.bitnet.
Hope this helps.

TRANSLATION: One book that might be very useful to Bolton but that
might not show up in a translation *theory* bibliography is Tim Webb's
*The Viiolet in the Crucible: Shelley and Translation* (Oxford:
Clarendon Press, 1976). Shelley in addition to translating from many
texts had a number of things to say about translation per se, including
"it were as wise to cast a violet into a crucible that you might
discover the formal principle of its colour and odour, as seek to
transfuse from one language into another the creations of a poet"
(Defence of Poetry).

Excuse a late comment, probably anticipated by now. I served on a
university committee investigating--but not prosecuting: that was the
province of another committee--charges against faculty members. I was
temporarily involved with a clear case of plagiarism in an field very
close to my own (hence my necessary withdrawal). This person was not
simply and clearly guilty, but ridiculously so; the person was a senior
member of the department and the case in point was a book review.
The evidence was clear, based upon the accusation of a person in the
field, whose work had been plagiarized. This august institution did
little to punish the senior member, and promoted that member the
following year. For political reasons.
