Beskrivning
Translation and Opposition is an edited volume that brings together cultural and sociological perspectives by examining translation through the prism of linguistic/cultural hybridity and inter/intra-social agency. In a collection of diverse case studies, ranging from the translation of political texts to interpreting in concentration camps, the book explores issues of power struggle, ideology, censorship and identity construction. The contributors to the volume show how translators, interpreters and subtitlers as mediators put their specific professional and ethical competences to the test by treading the dividing lines between constellations of ‘in-groups’ and cultural or political ‘others’.

Recensioner i media

This invaluable volume explores the complex relations between the translator’s textual action, the agency of the various parties involved in bringing about and exploiting translated works, and the social and political effects of this action and agency. The book’s value lies in its detailed mapping of how all these complex intertextual, interpersonal and inter-group relations intertwine across the translated text. The book provides a clear route-guide for where socially-based translation studies is heading, and should be heading, in the 2010s and beyond.
