In the current context of globalization, relocation of cultures,
and rampant technologizing of communication, orality has gained
renewed interest across disciplines in the humanities and the
social sciences. Orality has shed its once negative image as
primitive, non-literate, and exotic, and has grown into a major
area of scientific interest and the focus of interdisciplinary
research, including translation studies. As an important feature of
human speech and communication, orality has featured prominently in
studies related to pre-modernist traditions, modernist
representations of human history, and postmodernist expressions of
artistry such as in music, film, and other audiovisual media. Its
wide appeal can be seen in the variety of this volume, in which
contributors draw from a range of disciplines with orality as the
point of intersection with translation studies. This book is unique
in its exploration of orality and translation from an
interdisciplinary perspective, and sets the groundwork for
collaborative research among scholars across disciplines with an
interest in the aesthetics and materiality of orality. This book
was originally published as a special issue of Translation Studies.
