Translation, Gender & Identity

This video describes in detail the concepts of translation, gender and identity. Translating gender and identity requires translators to navigate a web of linguistic, cultural, and social complexities. By employing strategies that maintain gender neutrality, cultural adaptation, and contextual sensitivity, translators can overcome the challenges posed by gendered language.

Sherry Simon's Gender in Translation starts from the idea that 'translation is not simple transfer, but the continuation of a process of meaning creation, the circulation of meaning within a contingent network of texts and social discourses.' This idea, developed through the 'cultural turn' in translation studies over the past ten years, clearly moves translation away from utopian notions of 'fidelity' to some authoritative original text.
