Abstract

This edited volume first provides a brief introduction that tackles issues such as ethnology, poststructuralism and culture. The body of the work is divided into four thematic sections. The first part of the book concentrates on travel books in translation. The second chapter is devoted to intercultural translation. The third section investigates ethnography and translation and the fourth and final chapter looks into translation and cultural-theoretical issues.
