According to the 2020 Blue Book of Chinese Internet Literature released by the China Writers Association on June 2, 2021, about two million Internet literary works were contracted to release in 2020, and cumulatively there had been about twenty-eight million online literary works in China by the end of the same year. In addition, the numbers of Chinese words updated daily and throughout the year 2020 exceeded one hundred fifty million and fifty billion, respectively, attracting a considerable readership of four hundred sixty-seven million in 2020 alone. Chinese Internet literature, mainly that on the theme of wuxia (武侠), xianxia (仙侠), and xuanhuan (玄幻), has gone global through fan-based translation, an emerging form of translation undertaken by fan communities. It has fascinated millions of English-speaking readers quickly and extended its influence over nearly the whole world since it first became widely popular in North America in 2015, and the readership is still growing. Undeniably, online platforms represented by Wuxiaworld that focus on translating Chinese Internet literature into English have played an essential role. However, a minimal amount of attention has been paid to the fan-based translation of Chinese Internet literature because, according to Cornelia Zwischenberger, such a translation form is relatively young in translation studies. This article first introduces Chinese Internet literature and the concept of fan-based translation. Then, it elaborates on readers’ multiple roles in fan-based translation of Wuxiaworld by the Internet-mediated approach and conducts a case study of readers’ roles in traditional translations of print publications. It concludes that readers have long been invisible in translation studies, especially in the print age, which, to some degree, led to some translated literary works not being well accepted by the target audience. Thanks to media shifts based on technological progress, readers have become visible in the new form of online fan-based translation, intervening in the workflow by playing different roles.","PeriodicalId":42066,"journal":{"name":"TRANSLATION REVIEW","volume":"113 1","pages":"33 - 47"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48471678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sterk","doi":"10.1080/07374836.2022.2068712","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/07374836.2022.2068712","url":null,"abstract":"In just under 200 pages, Rita Indiana masterfully interweaves dystopian, magical, and queer elements in her 2015 novel, La mucama de Omicunlé. Indiana offers a grim commentary on past, present, and future life in the Dominican Republic and on the political and environmental forces that threaten to destroy the archipelago. Given La mucama de Omicunlé’s complex form and content—revolving around a transgender character and former sex worker named Acilde—Achy Obejas faced a particularly challenging task as the Spanish-intoEnglish translator. Uncommon among other literary translators, Obejas translates literature both from Spanish into English and from English into Spanish and has therefore been described as a “bitextual translator.” In her most recent translation projects, Obejas aims to bring the timely works of Rita Indiana, a queer feminist Dominican writer and musician, to the Anglophone reader’s attention. Indiana and Obejas’s working relationship began in 2016 with the translation of Papi, Indiana’s third novel. Tentacle (2018, translation of La mucama de Omicunlé, 2015) marks Obejas’s second collaborative project with Indiana. When looking at the scope of Rita Indiana and Achy Obejas’s respective creative work, it is fitting that the pair would decide to collaborate as author and translator on two separate occasions. Indiana and Obejas’s relationship can be contextualized through Sonia Álvarez’s ideas on “translocas,” the cross-disciplinary and cross-border group of Latina and Latin American feminists who seek to disrupt heteronormative patriarchal racisms and sexisms across the Americas. Álvarez defines “translocas” as “women trans/dislocated in a physical sense and the (resulting) conceptual madness linked to attempts to understand unfamiliar scenarios with familiar categories: women and categories out of place.” As queer and diasporic Caribbean women, Indiana and Obejas work together, across the Caribbean Sea, to challenge the cisheteropatriarchy and its racist and sexist ideals, all while affirming their rightful place in the largely homogenized world literature canon. Indiana’s literary text has received significant critical attention, but translation scholars have yet to evaluate Obejas’s Tentacle, which was shortlisted for the 2020 Best Translated Book Award. Although Obejas’s translation hews closely to the original Spanish, there are some striking differences between the two texts, especially in relation to descriptions of the protagonist and his trans body. Specifically, although Acilde is misgendered in both versions, its effect is most apparent in Obejas’s translation because of her consistent use of gender pronouns. I argue, however, that Obejas’s translation exposes ideas of corporality and gender identity that are inherently more ambiguous in the original, primarily because of the nature of the Spanish language and its ability to omit gendered subject pronouns. Obejas’s decision recalls, then, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak’s view o","PeriodicalId":42066,"journal":{"name":"TRANSLATION REVIEW","volume":"113 1","pages":"22 - 32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48575537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

She was one of the stars of her generation of writers in Yugoslavia, a breakthrough postmodernist, exploring literature through the lens of literary theory—her other love. In 1988, she was the first woman writer to be given the NIN award, Yugoslavia’s most prestigious literary prize, for her novel Forsiranje romana reke [Fording the Stream of Consciousness]. The war broke out in 1991, first in Slovenia, then Croatia, then Bosnia and Herzegovina, and ultimately in Serbia and Kosovo by the end of the decade. Ugrešić took a firm stand against the growing hostilities, and despite her earlier Yugoslavia-wide popularity, the public reaction in Croatia to her anti-war position was swift and damning. She decided to accept an offer to teach abroad, first for a semester at the University of Amsterdam, then two semester-long stays at Wesleyan College in Connecticut, a year as a fellow at the Radcliffe Advanced Studies Institute, a semester teaching in the Harvard University Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures, a stint of teaching at UCLA. After her first years of living abroad, she settled permanently in the Netherlands. She has published two books of short stories, six novels, nine collections of essays, a book of literary scholarship, two children’s books, a few screenplays for television and film, and a number of translations from the Russian. All of her fiction and the nine collections of essays have been translated into English, and several of them have also appeared in translations in a staggering array of languages: Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Polish, Bulgarian, Slovenian, Macedonian, Russian, Ukrainian, Slovak, Czech, Hungarian, Finnish, Lithuanian, Latvian, Estonian, Albanian, Romanian, Turkish, Greek, Hebrew, Japanese, Arabic, and Farsi. She has received ten major international awards, as well as, most recently, the prestigious Croatian T-Portal award. In the course of her career as a writer she has developed a strong critical voice, particularly in her essays. She sees herself not as Croatian or Dutch but as a public intellectual, a citizen of the Republic of World Letters. From her transnational position, she comments on global culture while also keeping an eye on what is happening in the cultures where she is from—now known as the “region”: the successor states of ex-Yugoslavia. I have translated two of her essay collections (Nobody’s Home and The Age of Skin) and have collaborated with other translators on two of her novels (Baba Yaga Laid an Egg and Fox). In the analysis that follows of the issues that arise for me when translating her essays, the examples are all taken from The Age of Skin, published in 2020 by Open Letter Press. Since the 1980s, I have had the honor of translating writing by authors who have lived or are now living in Bosnia, Croatia, Montenegro, and / or Serbia.

On page 1 of the book, I define translingualism as “the phenomenon of writers who write in more than one language or in a language other than their primary one.” I make it clear that it is possible to be multilingual without being translingual if, despite knowing more than one language, a writer writes only in L1. Although Ernest Hemingway spoke French and Spanish, he wrote exclusively in his native language, English. He was not translingual. Early in Nimble Tongues, I pose the fundamental question of whether the phenomenon of translingualism is worth studying, whether it makes any difference to the kind of text produced. I suggest that a fair test might be to compare the work of a translingual writer with that of a monolingual writer (whose work could presumably not be contaminated by any additional languages). Nevertheless, I point out how very difficult it is to find a writer who is genuinely, totally monolingual. As an example, I cite William Faulkner, who wrote exclusively in English, his L1, and was therefore decidedly not translingual, but whose texts show traces of French and Haitian Creole. From this, Professor Kingery concludes, invalidly, that I have broadened the category of translingual to include even Faulkner. I have not; I have simply noted that Faulkner is not a pure specimen of monolingualism. Professor Kingery faults the book for a “tendency to see translingualism everywhere,” when I have merely pointed out that true monolingualism is very rare. Literary translingualism remains the special case of writing in an adopted language.","PeriodicalId":42066,"journal":{"name":"TRANSLATION REVIEW","volume":"113 1","pages":"67 - 67"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46920750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
