| Abstract: | This article argues in favour of an approach to mobility and translation phenomena highlighting their cultural and historical specificities while also foregrounding the socio-political implications of both practices and their interconnections. A number of traditional assumptions are questioned, incl. the ability of travel writers to write selectively for a home audience, and the negative aura surrounding the translator as a potential cultural traitor. Additionally, rethought are binary models of identity and of translation, positing multiply translated and translating subjects as the protagonists of today's global communication processes. |
