Abstract:

Isn’t translation all about saying exactly the same thing in another language?
Aren’t national images totally outdated in this era of globalization? Most
people might agree but this book amply illustrates how persistent and
multifaceted clichés on translation and nation can be. Time and again,
translating involves making transfer choices and these choices are never
neutral. Though globalization has seemingly all but erased national ideologies
and cultural borders, such ideologies and borders continue to play a
determining role in conflicts, identity politics and cultural profiles.

The place where transfer choices and forms of national and cultural
representation come together is also the place where Translation Studies and
Imagology meet. This book offers a wealth of chapters showing how decisive
selection and transfer processes can be in representing national images, both
self-images and images of the other(s). It shows also how intensely the two
disciplines can work together and mutually benefit from shared data and
methodologies.
