This international and interdisciplinary volume explores the
relations between translation, migration, and memory. It brings
together humanities researchers from a range of disciplines
including history, museum studies, memory studies, translation
studies, and literary, cultural, and media studies to examine
memory and migration through the interconnecting lens of
translation. The innovatory perspective adopted by Translating
Worlds understands translation's explanatory reach as extending
beyond the comprehension of one language by another to encompass
those complex and multi-layered processes of parsing by means of
which the unfamiliar and the familiar, the old home and the new are
brought into conversation and connection. Themes discussed include:
How memories of lost homes act as aids or hindrances to homemaking
in new worlds. How cultural memories are translated in new cultural
contexts. Migration, affect, memory, and translation. Migration,
language, and transcultural memory. Migration, traumatic memory,
and translation.
