This comprehensive and interdisciplinary volume delves into the intricate connections between translation, migration, and memory. Drawing upon the expertise of humanities scholars from diverse fields such as history, museum studies, memory studies, translation studies, and literary, cultural, and media studies, the book explores memory and migration through the lens of translation. By adopting an innovative perspective, Translating Worlds recognizes that translations possess the power to go beyond mere language translation, encompassing the complex processes of parsing that facilitate the interaction between the unfamiliar and the familiar, the old home and the new.

The book addresses a range of compelling themes, including:

- The role of memories of lost homes in shaping the process of homemaking in new cultural contexts.
- The translation of cultural memories in new cultural settings.
- The multifaceted effects of migration on memory and translation.
- The interplay between language and transcultural memory in migration contexts.
- The impact of traumatic memory on migration and translation.

Through a rich array of case studies and theoretical frameworks, Translating Worlds offers a profound exploration of the complex dynamics that shape the relationship between translation, migration, and memory. It sheds light on the ways in which these processes intertwine, influence, and transform individuals and communities, contributing to a deeper understanding of the human experience in diverse global contexts.
