Translation Criticism in Ancient Rome. Aulus Gellius, Attic Nights
We owe many aspects of Western culture to the Greeks; yet it was the Romans who took the first steps in the fi eld of translation. This article presents a selection of characteristics of translation methods used by the Ancients and, more particularly, their broad understanding of translation as exemplified by Aulus Gellius, Roman writer of the second century CE.
