This book analyses intersemiotic translation, where the translator
works across sign systems and cultural boundaries. Challenging
Roman Jakobson's seminal definitions, it examines how a poem may be
expressed as dance, a short story as an olfactory experience, or a
film as a painting. This emergent process opens up a myriad of
synaesthetic possibilities for both translator and target audience
to experience form and sense beyond the limitations of words. The
editors draw together theoretical and creative contributions from
translators, artists, performers, academics and curators who have
explored intersemiotic translation in their practice. The
contributions offer a practitioner's perspective on this rapidly
evolving, interdisciplinary field which spans semiotics, cognitive
poetics, psychoanalysis and transformative learning theory. The
book underlines the intermedial and multimodal nature of perception
and expression, where semiotic boundaries are considered fluid and
heuristic rather than ontological. It will be of particular
interest to practitioners, scholars and students of modern foreign
languages, linguistics, literary and cultural studies,
interdisciplinary humanities, visual arts, theatre and the
performing arts.
