Abstract:

This book addresses the need for a systematic approach to the study of
identities. It explores the potential of drawing conclusions about
linguistic identities through analysis of source and target versions
of texts. It focuses on English-Greek translation contexts and brings
in evidence from other language pairs. It investigates systematic
variation in three genres (press, EU and literary/theatre translation
contexts) to trace signs of intercultural difference inscribed in text
that may be part of the source or target identity. It, thus highlights
the potential of translation to enlighten research on identity and
contributes insights into interdisciplinary projects on intercultural
difference. This book has a consciousness-raising intention, in that
it seeks to enhance linguistic identity awareness and shed light on
its development.
