Special issue: Translating memory across cultures and disciplines
Guest editors: Bella Brodzki (Sarah Lawrence College, NY) and Cristina 
Demaria (University of Bologna, Italy)

This special issue will establish a dialogue with and among scholars 
working on the intersections between translation studies and memory 
studies as they are presently configured and might be envisioned in the 
future.


translation devotes a special issue to the two concepts---translation 
and memory. They are interrelated: (1) memory---as the retrieval, 
reconstruction, inscription, and leaving of traces and their 
effects---plays a central role in any translation process, and (2) 
translation---the transformative character oftranslation is inherent in 
every memory and memorializing act. Remembering draws its (belated) 
versions of the past from different presents, serving multiple and often 
competing purposes. These include the imagined and projected versions of 
what is to come.
