Description

Translation and Opposition explores issues of inter/intra-social agency and identity construction through case studies in diverse fields such as interpreting, audiovisual translation, and the translation of political discourse and literary texts.

The contributors to this edited volume demonstrate that translation is an act of negotiating fault lines between 'us' and cultural or political 'others'. This nuanced approach sheds light on the complexities of translation as a process of negotiation and power dynamics.
