This book is the fruit of many happy years teaching at the University of
Trieste's Advanced School of Modern Languages for Translators and
Interpreters. Thanks are therefore due to all the friends and colleagues
whose precious advice and encouragement have made it possible - John,
Clyde, Laura, David and all the others too numerous to mention. Special
thanks go to Carol Taylor Torsello for her invaluable help in checking over
the various manuscript stages and keeping me on the right path. Any
remaining flaws are entirely my responsibility. For their patience and
understanding, heartfelt thanks to Daniela, Riccardo and Stephanie.
