In this ground-breaking volume, Baynham and Lee revisit translation studies with the analytical insights from translanguaging. The result not only reinvigorates translation studies but also develops translanguaging to a new level. The range and variety of examples discussed in the book are breath-taking, making the book an exciting and rewarding read. Its impact will be enduring and far-reaching.Li Wei, Chair of Applied Linguistics, University College London, UKLiterature on translanguaging has expanded rapidly in recent years, but Mike Baynham and TK Lee take our understanding of the phenomenon in unexpected new directions. Drawing on a rich and varied corpus of examples, they consider the numerous intersections connecting translanguaging practices with the dynamics of translation. The result is a searching disruption of conventional definitions of translation but also a reflection on the creative potential of translanguaging itself. Essential reading for all those interested in researching across languages and cultures.Charles Forsdick, James Barrow Professor of French, University of Liverpool, AHRC Theme Leadership Fellow, Translating Cultures.
