Translating Women

The essays collected in this anthology focus on women in translation - whether this be women translators, women authors or women characters - and examine fiction, academic writing and audiovisual texts. They address and mobilize contemporary topics in the humanities: post-colonialism, feminism, questions of ethics and power differentials, historicity as a factor in textual transfer. The texts come from established international scholars in the field of translation studies as well as younger researchers whose cutting-edge materials offer an inspired look into the future of this area of study.
