Boyadjian, invites translators to move beyond purely prescriptive applications of translation, interpretation, and the localization of national literatures-and the mere translation of a \"minor\" literature into a major language-to consider their translations of contemporary Armenian literature as part of larger, non-compartmentalized cultural and theoretical frameworks and disciplines such as comparative literature, Mediterranean studies, Postcolonial studies, Diaspora studies, Trauma studies, and others. The issue includes contemporary Armenian texts from living authors, chosen as significant works that challenge, shape, and complicate conversations on transcultural analysis, and theories and practices related to translating. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eAbsinthe: A Journal of World Literature in Translation\u003c\/i\u003e publishes foreign literature in English translation, with a particular focus on previously untranslated contemporary fiction, poetry, and creative non-fiction by living authors. The magazine has its home in the Department of Comparative Literature at the University of Michigan and is edited by graduate students in the Department, as well as by occasional guest editors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tamar Boyadjian\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1607854805\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781607854807\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Michigan Publishing Services\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/05\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.57d","brand":"Tamar Boyadjian","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44616692072703,"sku":"9781607854807","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6bcb093b-63b3-4bc2-965f-251b3c228b34.jpg?v=1703021761","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/absinthe-tamar-boyadjian-9781607854807","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
