The Routledge Handbook of Translation and Memory
About this ebook
Twenty-four chapters written by leading and emerging international scholars provide a cross-sectional snapshot of the diverse angles of approach and case studies that have thus far driven research into translation and memory. A valuable, far-reaching range of theoretical, empirical, reflective, comparative, and archival approaches are brought to bear on translational sites of memory and mnemonic sites of translation through the examination of topics such as traumatic, postcolonial, cultural, literary, and translator memory.
This Handbook is key reading for advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers in translation studies, memory studies, and related areas.
