Description

Explore the deep connection between translation and the perception of Cuban culture. This Routledge study examines how English renderings of Cuban texts have shaped the mental image held by Anglophone audiences since 1959. By analyzing a wide range of materials, the book looks at how translators represent, reshape, or amend original works across multiple domains. This research covers diverse subjects including poetry, science fiction, political and military writing, music, and film. It investigates the specific decisions made during the translation process, such as when an ideological agenda might strengthen the tone of a song or lead to the removal of certain passages. For students, historians, and anyone interested in the history of the Americas, this text provides a detailed look at how language influences our understanding of a nation's culture and politics.
