  • More about Translation as Creative–Critical Practice

Delphine Grass challenges the separation between practice and theory in translation studies by examining creative-critical translation experiments. She advocates for a renewed engagement with translation theory from the perspective of translation as artistic and practice-based research, capable of reframing the field.

Delphine Grass challenges the traditional divide between practice and theory in translation studies by examining creative-critical translation experiments. Through her analysis of contemporary literary and artistic engagements with translation, such as autotheoretical translation memoirs, performative translations, and transtopian literary and visual art works, Grass advocates for a renewed engagement with translation theory from the perspective of translation as an artistic and practice-based research capable of reframing translation theory. By exploring examples of translation as both a norm-breaking and world-making activity in the works of authors like Kate Briggs, Ayesha Manazir Siddiqi, Noémie Grunenwald, Anne Carson, Charles Bernstein, Chantal Wright, and Slavs and Tatars, this Element prompts us to reevaluate the current place of translation practice in translation studies.
