Abstract:

This book addresses the translation of culture in the context of religion. The
contributions, which analyse texts in literary, ethnohistorical and/or
linguistic terms, show how different cultural traditions and languages are
communicated across boundaries. They include studies of the missionary context
of the Early Middle Ages and of colonially dominated cultures in Latin
America, India, China, Africa and Australia, from the 16th to the early 20th
century; and they analyse literary works with respect to how they transmit and
translate culture: one a Christian play in the context of Islam, the other one
a novel of the Haitian diaspora in the USA; another contribution presents the
challenges of how the concept of religion itself is conveyed in contemporary
scholarly contexts. By using different methodological tools, the authors show
the manifold and innovative ways in which this field of the translation of
culture can be approached. With contributions by Gwilym Colenso, Fiona
Darroch, Sabine Dedenbach-Salazar Sáenz, Pär Eliasson, Sarah Irving, Alison
Jasper, David Moore, Brian Murdoch, Richard H. Roberts, Frauke Sachse, Roxana
Sarion.
