"In this collection of essays, the author develops a bold approach to translation that addresses the subtleties of cultural identity. He describes how texts in Burmese, Jananese, and Malay differ profoundly from English texts in all the ways they have meaning: in the games they play, the worlds thsy constitute, the memories thsy evoke, the media they shape, the structures they build, and the silences thsy maintain. In each of these dimensions there are excesses and inadequacies of meaning that make a difference across languages. His 'modern philology' insists, beyond translation, on the sorting of these ambiguities and contexts of meaning." from the jacket flap. Not Price Clipped.
