- Title
The Politics of Opacity and Translation in Post-Migrant Germany: Commentary on Elise v. Bernstorff's "Abdallah Lowers his Gaze".
- Authors
Nandi, Miriam
- Abstract
My commentary focusses on the anecdote described by Elise v. Bernstorff in her research on transcultural education in rural Germany. I am interested in the potential intersections between v. Bernstorff's findings and my own work on postcolonial literary theory and translation studies. On a methodological level, I am taking my cue from the ethical theory of the Caribbean philosopher Édouard Glissant on the one hand and postcolonial translation studies (Spivak, Tymoczko, Venuti) on the other.
