In the field of Translation Studies no book-length work in English has yet been dedicated to
the translation and circulation of migration literature. The authors of this volume seek to
contribute to filling this gap through a detailed study of texts belonging to a variety of
literary genres and engaging with the phenomenon of migration in different parts of the world.
Not only will the challenges met by translators be discussed but the different ways in which
the translated texts travel from one cultural sphere to another will also be explored. The
focus lies on the themes migration and politics migration and society as well as the
experience of migration in words music and images.
