Jeremy Munday erforscht die komplexe Beziehung zwischen Sprache, Ideologie und dem Akt der Übersetzung. Seine Arbeit befasst sich mit den theoretischen Grundlagen der Übersetzung und untersucht, wie Diskurs und Machtdynamiken literarische Werke prägen, wenn sie sprachliche Grenzen überschreiten. Er versucht, das komplexe Zusammenspiel zwischen Originaltexten, Übersetzern und dem Publikum, das sich mit übersetzter Literatur beschäftigt, zu verstehen. Mundays Ansatz bietet den Lesern eine kritische Perspektive, um die Nuancen der Übersetzungswissenschaft zu würdigen.

Modern Art of South America from the Patricia Phelps de Cisneros Collection
The Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros (CPPC) is the foremost collection of geometric abstract art from Latin America. From the 1930s through the 1970s distinct artistic movements emerged in cities of Montevideo, Buenos Aires, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Caracas that explored innovative forms of expression reflecting the new optimism sweeping the continent. This volume explores the ways in which the artists of these cities heralded the promise of a bright, modern future by creating a commensurate visual language to capture this positive spirit.
