and interdisciplinary approach to transfer
The concept of transfer covers
the most diverse phenomena of circulation, transformation and reinterpretation
of cultural goods across space and time, and are among the driving forces in
opening up the field of translation studies. Transfer processes cross
linguistic and cultural boundaries and cannot be reduced to simple movements
from a source to a target (culture or text). In a time of paradigm shifts, this
book aims to explore the potential and interdisciplinary power of transfer as a
concept and an analytical tool to account for complex cultural dynamics.
The contributions in this book adopt various
research angles (literary studies, imagology, translation studies, translator
studies, periodical studies, postcolonialism) to study an array of entangled
transfer processes that apply to different objects and aspects, ranging from
literary texts, legal texts, news, images and identities to ideologies, power
asymmetries, titles and heterolingualisms. By embracing a process-oriented way
of thinking, all these contributions aim to open the ‘black box’ of transfer in
the widest sense.
