More about the book
The book presents a postrationalist view of translation that emphasizes the dynamic interplay of voices and textualities rather than the translator's rational mastery over language. It explores how translation is shaped by a fluid exchange of meanings, suggesting that the act of translating is more about engaging with diverse expressions and interpretations than adhering to strict linguistic rules. This perspective invites a deeper understanding of the complexities involved in the translation process.
