Excellent- More about Relocation of Culture: Translations, Migrations, Borders
The Relocation of Culture explores the relationship between translation, migration, and cultural identity, using translation as a method for developing a global cultural theory grounded in the humanities. It considers the complexities of language, image, sound, and body in translation and the emotional and ethical responsibilities involved in translating across borders.

The Relocation of Culture delves into the intricate interplay of accents, borders, and people, exploring the diverse cultures that possess distinctive accents and transcend geographical boundaries. This thought-provoking book explores the realm of translation and nomadic identities, shedding light on the profound impact of forced migrations on the practice of languages and the understanding of cultures in our contemporary world. In their insightful examination, Simona Bertacco and Nicoletta Vallorani examine the theoretical and practical relationship between translation and migration, two of the most pressing and anxiety-inducing keywords of our time. By employing translation as a methodology, the authors establish a global cultural theory rooted in the humanities, serving as both a creative output and interdisciplinary scholarship. Positioning their work within the field of translation studies, they draw upon significant insights from literary and cultural studies, visual and migration studies, to develop a comprehensive theory of translation that embraces complexity, recognizes the diverse languages of words, images, sounds, bodies, and considers the emotional, pre-linguistic, and instinctual reactions we have towards others as invaders and enemies. Moreover, this transformative process necessitates a profound reflection on the location and relocation of cultures in the ever-evolving landscape of contemporary times.
