This module explores translation theory from the perspective of its intersections with cultural studies and philosophy. Topics include: ontological and epistemological underpinnings of key theoretical frameworks used in translation studies; equivalence and authorised translation; paratexts; translation and gender; positioning and social narrative; geopolitics and translation; translation and postcolonial studies. We also examine philosophical statements on translation by Friedrich Schleiermacher, Walter Benjamin, and Jacques Derrida.鈥�
