Abstract:

Besides providing a thorough overview of advances in the concept of identity
in Translation Studies, the book brings together a variety of approaches to
identity as seen through the prism of translation. Individual chapters are
united by the topic and their predominantly cultural approach, but they also
supply dynamic impulses for the reader, since their methodologies, level of
abstraction, and subject matter differ. The theoretical impulses brought
together here include a call for the ecology of translational attention, a
proposal of transcultural and farcical translation and a rethinking of
Bourdieu’s habitus in terms of František Miko’s experiential complex. The book
also offers first-hand insights into such topics as post-communist translation
practices, provides sociological insights into the role politics played during
state socialism in the creation of fields of translated fiction and the way
imported fiction was able to subvert the intentions of the state, gives
evidence of the struggles of small locales trying to be recognised though
their literature, and draws links between local theory and more widely-known
concepts.
