The concept of equivalence can be assumed to hold a central position in
translation studies. However, it has been controversial, causing many heated
debates among scholars of translation studies according to its nature,
definition and applicability. This research paper provides a critical evaluation
of the most influential equivalence theories that have been proposed by
scholars in the field, such as Vinay and Darbelnet (1958), Jakobson (1959),
Nida and Taber (1969), Catford (1965), House (1997), Koller (1979), Newmark
(1981), Baker (1992), and finally, Pym (2010). These theories are presented in
order to provide a better understanding of how the concept of equivalence
developed. It is concluded that the concept of equivalence in the translation
process varies among translation scholars according to their view on the
qualities of equivalence.
