TRANSLATING ACROSS SENSORY AND LINGUISTIC BORDE...

This book analyses intersemiotic translation  where the translator works across sign systems
and cultural boundaries. Challenging Roman Jakobson¿s seminal definitions  it examines how a
poem may be expressed as dance  a short story as an olfactory experience  or a film as a
painting. This emergent process opens up a myriad of synaesthetic possibilities for both
translator and target audience to experience form and sense beyond the limitations of words.
The editors draw together theoretical and creative contributions from translators  artists 
performers  academics and curators who have explored intersemiotic translation in their
practice. The contributions offer a practitioner¿s perspective on this rapidly evolving 
interdisciplinary field which spans semiotics  cognitive poetics  psychoanalysis and
transformative learning theory. The book underlines the intermedial and multimodal nature of
perception and expression  where semiotic boundaries are considered fluid and heuristic rather
than ontological. It will be of particular interest to practitioners  scholars and students of
modern foreign languages  linguistics  literary and cultural studies  interdisciplinary
humanities  visual arts  theatre and the performing arts.
