{"product_id":"gender-sex-and-translation-1","title":"Gender, Sex and Translation","description":"\u003cp\u003eGendered and sexual identities are unstable constructions which reveal a great deal about the ideologies and power relatinships affecting individuals and societies. The interaction between gender\/sex studies and translation studies points to a fascinating arena of discursive conflict in which our intimate desires and identities are established or rejected, (re)negotiated or censored, sanctioned or tabooed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume explores diverse and heterogeneous aspects of the manipulation of gendered and sexual identities. Contributors examine translation as a feminist practice and\/or theory; the importance of gender-related context in translation; the creation of a female image of secondariness through dubbing and state censoriship; attempts to suppress the blantantly patriarchal and sexist references in the German dubbed versions of James Bond films; the construction of national heroism and national identity as male preserve; the enactment of Chamberlain's 'gender metaphorics' in Scliar and Calvino; the transformation of Japanese romance fiction through Harlequin translations; the translations of the erotic as site for testing the complex rewriting(s) of identity in sociohistorical term; and the emergence of NRTs (New Reproductive Technologies), which is causing fundamental changes in the perception of 'creativity' or 'procreation' as male domains.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"St Jerome Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54249262645592,"sku":"9781900650687","price":64.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781900650687_df466056-97ad-41a5-bbe1-4f053919cca8.jpg?v=1769643026","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/gender-sex-and-translation-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
