Science Fiction in Translation: Perspectives on the Global Theory
and Practice of Translation focuses on the process of translation
and its implications. The volume explores the translation of works
of science fiction (SF) from one language to another and the
translation of SF tropes, terms, and ideas of SF theory into
cultures outside the West. Providing a comprehensive examination of
the state of translation into English, the essays consider how
representative the body of translated work of SF is from the source
language/culture. It also considers the social, political, and
economic choices in selecting a work to translate. The book
illustrates the dramatic growth both in SF production outside the
Anglosphere, the translation of works from other languages into
English, and the practice of translating English-language SF into
other languages. Altogether, the essays map the theory, practice,
and business of SF translation around the world.
