Translation and Geography investigates how translation has
radically shaped the way the West has mapped the world.
Groundbreaking in its approach and relevant across a range of
disciplines from translation studies and comparative literature to
geography and history, this book makes a compelling case for a form
of cultural translation that reframes the contributions of
language-based translation analysis. Focusing on the different yet
intertwined translation processes involved in the development of
the Western spatial imaginary, Federico Italiano examines a series
of literary works and their translations across languages, media,
and epochs, encompassing: poems travel narratives nautical fictions
colonial discourse exilic visions. Drawing on case studies and
readings ranging from the Latin of the Middle Ages to
twentieth-century Latin American poetry, this is key reading for
translation theory and comparative/world literature courses.
