S'adressant à ceux qui souhaitent s'initier et s'entraîner, de manière raisonnée, à la pratique de la traduction, cet ouvrage offre une méthode d'analyse originale et efficace. La pratique observée est sans cesse présente sous forme d'exemples abondants et variés, les principes dégagés sont illustrés par des exercices. La démarche utilise les différents apports des sciences du langage en les subordonnant à la spécificité de l'acte de traduire. Les termes techniques sont chaque fois clairement définis. L'ordre suivi va du signe à l'énoncé, sans jamais perdre de vue les éléments constituants d'un ensemble qui est le texte. L'ouvrage représente un ensemble cohérent disposé avec ordre mais dont les éléments modulaires sont utilisables séparément, un système de renvois multiples permettant de mettre en perspective les chapitres.

"My only Son," is the story of Vinny Denucci, the son of Sonny Denucci, the head of a New York organized crime family and the" Boss of Bosses" of the (5) Mafia families of New York. The story begins when Vinny is fourteen (14), a naive, intelligent good- natured boy, who does not fully understand what his father does for a living. Vinny has dreams of becoming a lawyer when he reaches adulthood. Sonny is a ruthless crime lord, who wants his only son to be his successor as head of the crime family. Felicia, Vinny's mother, is a strong willed individual who has grown tired of living the life of a crime boss" wife, and wants her son, with whom she is extremely close, to follow his dreams to a life outside the family. Sonny is so outraged and threatened by Felicia's interference with his plans for Vinny that he takes Felicia's life, and with the help of a crooked New York Detective, is able to cover up his horrible crime. With Felicia out of the way, Sonny drags Vinny into the life he and Felicia so vehemently wanted him to avoid. This story, through its many twists and turns, traces the life of Vinny as he is initiated into the family, becomes a" mobster," and eventually winds up in prison. While Vinny is in prison his grandmother Gina, Felicia's mother, is approached by an FBI Agent Rick Carr, who tells her that Felicia's death was not natural, as had been reported, and that he suspects Sonny was involved with her death. Once Gina relates this information to Vinny upon his release from prison, he makes the life altering decision to work with the FBI to try to bring down his Father's empire, in order to avenge his beloved mother's death. The story culminates in a heart stoppingconfrontation between Vinny and Sonny that will have the viewers on the edge of their seats.
