Translation Landscapes
Contemporary Galician literature is a central pillar of Galician cultural production and a key driver of the consolidation of Galicia's identity in the twenty-first century, yet it remains largely invisible outside of the borders of Spain. In Translation Landscapes: Contemporary Galician Fiction in English, Laura Linares examines how Galician fiction is articulated for an anglophone readership, exploring the complex global landscapes where translations occur, the impact of the intricate relationship between Galician and Spanish literatures in the former's internationalization and reception in the Anglosphere, and the reconstruction of Galician identity in translated texts. This first book-length study of the topic provides new insights on cultural representation in translation and engages with the tensions inherent in the internationalization of a minoritized culture into a hegemonic one in a globalized world.Laura Linares is a graduate of University College Cork and currently lectures in Spanish and Translation Studies at the University of Limerick.
The German National Imagination from the Early Modern Period to the Present
The German cultural and historical imagination has played a central role in shaping narratives of national belonging. This historically situated engagement with cultural narratives in a changing landscape reveals many different versions of national identity. The essays in this volume address how a variety of German voices, from early modern travellers, to musicians, intellectuals and literary writers, have thought and fought about narratives associated with the German national idea, from the early modern period to the present. The essays analyse different understandings of the relationship between past and present, the individual and the collective, aesthetic forms and political imaginaries. They cast light on the specific social and political formations that have given rise to different versions of German collective identity since the seventeenth century, and on the self-understanding in the twenty-first century of the Federal Republic.The volume is dedicated to Joachim Whaley, Emeritus Pro-fessor of German History and Thought at the University of Cambridge, in celebration of his distinguished scholarship, across the disciplines of History and of German Studies, and his inspiring teaching which has ranged from the Holy Roman Empire to the twenty-first century.
After Clarice
Forty years after her death, Clarice Lispector's startling oeuvre continues to fascinate readers and scholars. Internationally acclaimed writers, from H矇l癡ne Cixous to Colm T籀ib穩n, have acknowledged the transformative influence of her writing on their own work. Translations of her novels and short stories appear every year in many languages, making her one of the most widely translated and retranslated Portuguese-language writers of the twentieth century. After Clarice: Reading Lispector's Legacy in the Twenty-First Century brings together scholars, authors, artists, and translators working in a wide range of languages and disciplines to address Lispector's place, as a Brazilian writer, in twenty-first century configurations of world literature. It aims to evaluate the fluctuations and swerves in Lispector's critical fortunes, focusing on the way her works have been reread and transformed in other languages, genres, and media.Gathering scholarly articles, works of fiction and poetry, personal essays and archival material, this volume explores Lispector's status as a Jewish writer; issues of identity, class, race, gender and sexuality in her work; translation and reception, as well as the politics of publishing and marketing Lispector for international readerships. In addition to her stories and novels, After Clarice also examines Lispector's journalism, writing for children, interviews, music and visual art collaborations, and considers how these activities have garnered her new readers in a wide range of disciplines.
Child as Citizen
Contributions by Daniela Brockdorff, Nina Christensen, Jill Coste, Katrin Dautel, Justyna Deszcz-Tryhubczak, Giuliana Fenech, Naomi Hamer, Irena Barbara Kalla, Anne Klomberg, Sonali Kulkarni, Elizabeth Leach-Leung, Ann Marie Murnaghan, Emily Murphy, Emilie Owens, Nicola Parker, Patrycja Poniatowska, Meg Rosoff, and Farriba Schulz. Child as Citizen: Agency and Activism in Children's Literature and Culture addresses children's and young adult agency and activism across literature and culture, demonstrating how these forces influence child citizenship. Contributors to this volume highlight the agentic voices and activist practices that are growing across all spheres of young people's lives, as well as the challenges to active citizenship that children growing up in unjust sociopolitical contexts face. The volume is interdisciplinary and draws on the sociology of childhood, children's literature studies, youth culture studies, media, technology, and cultural studies, and Anthropocene, ecofeminist, and disability studies. Agency occurs in and around literature and storytelling, and this collection establishes how it is always influenced by identity as well as geopolitics; how it is both subjective and collective; how it is cultural and embodied; and how, like citizenship, it is not a static status but rather an ongoing negotiation. In this collection, contributors invite readers to consider agency as a system of relations between children themselves, between children and adults, children and institutions, and children and nation-states, as well as between children and the nonhuman. This book reviews the interconnectedness between these relationships and attempts to untangle some of the complications that emerge.
