Description: "What is a translation? Do we only translate words, or perhaps art, too? Can we translate one culture into another? In a globalized world how are we to view questions about translations and translatability, culturally, aesthetically and linguistically? Translatability is an anthology that brings together various perspectives on the question of translation. The anthology forms  part of a larger collaboration between Bonniers Knosthall, Sodertorn University and the publihers Albert Bonniers Forlag, and has been produced to accompany the exhibition: The Spiral and the Square. Exercises in translatability."--Front flap.
Notes: Parallel text printed front-to-back, back-to-front and up-side down.
