Translation as Different
Welcome to My Reflection
This article exemplifies the potential of wider applications of creative writing pedagogy to literary criticism. It considers Joseph Brodsky’s surviving creative assignments, used in his university seminars in the 1980s and 1990s, to demonstrate the relevance of the poet’s pedagogical approach to his creative method. It argues that the assignments reveal aspects of Brodsky’s private systematization behind his poetry, and demonstrates the impact o…
Prismatic Jane Eyre
"Jane Eyre, written by Charlotte Brontë and first published in 1847, has been translated more than five hundred times into over sixty languages. Prismatic Jane Eyre argues that we should see these many re-writings, not as simple replications of the novel, but as a release of its multiple interpretative possibilities: in other words, as a prism. Prismatic Jane Eyre develops the theoretical ramifications of this idea, and reads Brontë's novel in th…
Romain Gary's collaborative self-translations
This article considers the possibility of translational processes beyond translation through a genetic editing approach to an understudied phenomenon in Translation Studies, namely the use of intermediary allograph translations in collaborative self-translation. It considers a self-translator’s practice of involving a hired translator to provide an initial translation of an entire work, later to be revised extensively by the author. With a focus …

This article re-evaluates the theoretical import of networks of signification, one of Antoine Berman’s twelve deforming tendencies in translation. Taking Jane Eyre as a case study, the article considers character description as an example of a Bermanian network and traces the physical appearance of the novel’s characters across its six Russian translations. Character description represents a network that is traceable, depends on the reader’s abil…
Tierno Monénembo’s “Pelourinho”
Tierno Monénembo, a Guinean novelist and winner of the 2008 Prix Renaudot, starts his novel Pelourihno with the words “Maintenant que tu es mort, Escritore.” This complex story, driven by myth and linguistic virtuosity, revolves around the murder of an aspiring writer. It acquires a different immediacy, however, when read in dialogue with Roland Barthes’ “La mort de l’auteur,” as a work where the author is dead from the outset. What happens in th…
