Abstract:

Translation is intercultural communication in its purest form.  Its  
power
in forming and/or deforming cultural identities has only recently been
acknowledged, given the attention it deserves.  The chapters in this
unique volume assess translation from Arabic into other languages from
different perspectives: the politics, economics, ethics, and poetics of
translating from Arabic; a language often neglected in western  
mainstream
translation studies.
