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 interpretation and comprehension 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, language, and transcultural memory.
- The impact of traumatic memory on migration and translation.

Through a rich array of case studies and analytical frameworks, Translating Worlds sheds light on the complex dynamics that shape the relationship between translation, migration, and memory. It provides valuable insights into the ways in which these phenomena intersect, influence, and transform individuals, communities, and societies across the globe. This book is a must-read for scholars, researchers, and students interested in exploring the multifaceted dimensions of translation, migration, and memory.
