It investigates the challenges which the\u003cbr\u003ebilingual oeuvre and the experience of the self-translator pose to conventional\u003cbr\u003edefinitions of translation and the problematic dichotomies of \"original\" and\u003cbr\u003e\"translation\", \"author\" and \"translator\". Canonical self-translators, such\u003cbr\u003eSamuel Beckett, Vladimir Nabokov and Rabindranath Tagore, are here discussed in\u003cbr\u003ethe context of previously overlooked self-translators, from Japan to South\u003cbr\u003eAfrica, from the Basque Country to Scotland. This book seeks therefore to offer\u003cbr\u003ea portrait of the diverse artistic and political objectives and priorities of\u003cbr\u003eself-translators by investigating different cosmopolitan, post-colonial and\u003cbr\u003eindigenous practices. Numerous contributions to this volume extend the scope of\u003cbr\u003eself-translation to include the composition of a work out of a multilingual\u003cbr\u003econsciousness or society. They demonstrate how production within hybrid\u003cbr\u003econtexts requires the negotiation of different languages within the self, \u003cbr\u003egenerating powerful experiences, from crisis to liberation, and texts that\u003cbr\u003eoffer key insights into our increasingly globalized culture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45086256398487,"sku":"9781441125415","price":22788.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781441125415.webp?v=1767265874","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/self-translation-brokering-originality-in-hybrid-culture-9781441125415","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
