Vertaling is reeds die ver‐andering van wat herhaal word”. Introduction: the contribution of postmodernism to intercultural communication; the question of the other/self is the interrogation of history by its effect; Juffrou Sophia: is the name interrogating her self as historical construct; History (I): Die Stem: as untranslatable a meaning as the auto‐colonisation that marked the reply to “the call”; ’Us” and “Them”: are, effects of this dialogue between Verbum and vox; History (II): The de‐ontologising of history and the separation of ontology from rhetoric; The Flight Inward: "1 Situated within, especially with reference to the body; inner: opposed to outward ... 4 Proceeding toward the inside” (Funk et al. 1951: 704); The Politics of Silence: the flight inward is the house of silence, is the auto‐colonisation inscribed in the untranslatable apartheid; Questioning Issa: is interrogating the other self outside the house of silence; History (III): is similar to the Kantian law in its inaccessibility ‐ I can only confront history/the law through the other who, like myself, is a manifestation or representation thereof; Issa's Imitatio Christi: post‐outocolonisation is a condition for postmodern dialogue between the other/self; Conclusion: Rejection of the metaphysics of redemption and total understanding: the desire to be exhaustively translatable and/or to translate rapaciously
