translating violence
transversal web journal
How can the silence of those
be translated, who are not even conceded an articulated language? There
is only
one possibility: translating injustices and inequalities and thus
voicing them
instead of negating them. It is only in this way that otherness which
has been
silenced can regain language.
Far from being a purely
textual phenomenon, in this issue of the web journal transversal
coordinated by
Rada Iveković,
translation is always already a contextual translation
of life,
experience and politics. The extent to which this calls for a politics
of
translation that questions both the original and the role of the
translator, is
explored in this issue on the basis of questions of biopolitical
violence and
heterolinguality, language politics in Gujarat, art politics in Taiwan,
and
concrete translation problems of feminist terminology.
