Aims & Scope

TranscUlturAl aims to represent innovative interdisciplinary scholarship at the intersection of Translation Studies and Cultural Studies. TranscUlturAl seeks to contribute to the dialogue between cultures and languages by publishing essays, translations and creative pieces that explore interrelationships between translations and cultures, past and present, in global and local contexts. This includes work that ventures beyond dominant geolinguistic and geocultural spaces, in particular those officially defined as either monolingual or bilingual. The purpose of TranscUlturAl is twofold: to reconsider dominant cultural institutions in new and productive ways, and to explore unfrequented itineraries of translation involving “minor” languages. Through the publication of original articles and translations, reviews of books and other media, as well as conference announcements and thesis abstracts the journal makes available emergent research in Translation Studies and Cultural Studies.
