Multiple Translation Communities in Contemporary Japan offers a
collection of essays that (1) deepens the understanding of the
cultural and linguistic diversity of communities in contemporary
Japan and how translation operates in this shifting context and
circulates globally by looking at some of the ways it is theorized
and approached as a significant social, cultural, or political
practice, and harnessed by its multiple agents; (2) draws attention
to the multi-platform translations of cultural productions such as
manga, which are both particular to and popular in Japan but also
culturally influential and widely circulated transnationally; (3)
poses questions about the range of roles translation has in the
construction, performance, and control of gender roles in Japan,
and (4) enriches Translation Studies by offering essays that
problematize critical notions related to translation. In short, the
essays in this book highlight the diversity and ubiquity of
translation in Japan as well as the range of methods being used to
understand how it is being theorized, positioned, and practiced.
