From Struwwelpeter to Peter Rabbit, from Alice to Bilbo-this
collection of essays shows how the classics of children's
literature have been transformed across languages, genres, and
diverse media forms. This book argues that translation regularly
involves transmediation-the telling of a story across media and
vice versa-and that transmediation is a specific form of
translation. Beyond the classic examples, the book also takes the
reader on a worldwide tour, and examines, among other things, the
role of Soviet science fiction in North Korea, the ethical uses of
Lego Star Wars in a Brazilian context, and the history of Latin
translation in children's literature. Bringing together scholars
from more than a dozen countries and language backgrounds, these
cross-disciplinary essays focus on regularly overlooked
transmediation practices and terminology, such as book cover art,
trans-sensory storytelling, ecart, enfreakment, foreignizing
domestication, and intra-cultural transformation.
