Translating Worlds: Migration, Memory, and Culture: Creative, Social and Transnational Perspectives on Translation

Editat de Susannah Radstone, Rita Wilson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 sep 2020
This international and interdisciplinary volume explores the relations between translation, migration, and memory. It brings together humanities researchers from a range of disciplines including history, museum studies, memory studies, translation studies, and literary, cultural, and media studies to examine memory and migration through the interconnecting lens of translation. The innovatory perspective adopted by Translating Worlds understands translation’s explanatory reach as extending beyond the comprehension of one language by another to encompass those complex and multi-layered processes of parsing by means of which the unfamiliar and the familiar, the old home and the new are brought into conversation and connection.
Themes discussed include:
  • How memories of lost homes act as aids or hindrances to homemaking in new worlds.
  • How cultural memories are translated in new cultural contexts.
  • Migration, affect, memory, and translation.
  • Migration, language, and transcultural memory.
  • Migration, traumatic memory, and translation.

Recenzii

Translating Worlds deliberately aims to extend the more traditional reach of translation to encompass complex and multilayered processes that include conversations and connections between the familiar and the unfamiliar, between the migrants' old home and their new one.
Christophe Declercq, KU Leuven, Utrecht University
Translating Worlds is intended for graduate students, post-graduate students, and academia in general. The authors made ground-breaking work on Memory Studies and Translation Studies and are personally engaged through reflection that conjures an exploration of traumas of the past, healing, affection, and their personal concept of homes for migrants. I recommend this book for humanities and social science researchers. This edited collection will be of interest to a wide range of scholars working in the interdisciplinary studies of humanities and social sciences.
