Translation: Narration, Media and the Staging of Differences

by Federico Italiano (editor), Michael Rössner (Editor)

As recent years have revealed, the concept of �translation� has grown increasingly important in a globalizing world and a multi-media society. Seeing translation as the negotiation of differences in identity construction does not only contribute to the understanding of contemporary cultural processes - it also makes it possible to find orientation and critical insights in a world of constantly changing social, political and media spaces.This collection of essays discusses the �translational turn�, proposing new theoretical approaches and providing new insights into the relation between narration and identity construction, between translation processes and the media.
