Abstract:

'Multiple Translation Communities in Contemporary Japan' offers a collection
of essays that (1) deepens the understanding of the cultural and linguistic
diversity of communities in contemporary Japan and how translation operates in
this shifting context and circulates globally by looking at some of the ways
it is theorized and approached as a significant social, cultural, or political
practice, and harnessed by its multiple agents; (2) draws attention to the
multi-platform translations of cultural productions such as manga, which are
both particular to and popular in Japan but also culturally influential and
widely circulated transnationally; (3) poses questions about the range of
roles translation has in the construction, performance, and control of gender
roles in Japan, and (4) enriches Translation Studies by offering essays that
problematize critical notions related to translation. In short, the essays in
this book highlight the diversity and ubiquity of translation in Japan as well
as the range of methods being used to understand how it is being theorized,
positioned, and practiced.
