Routledge Translating the Visual: Multimodal Perspective - Routledge

Translating the Visual examines how illustrated texts, comics, graphic novels and animated films function as multimodal entities where visual and textual elements work together inseparably. This Routledge academic volume explores translation and adaptation strategies across diverse visual media, demonstrating how replacing even a single component affects the entire work. The book includes interviews with writers, illustrators and animators who share insights into their creative and translation processes. Designed for translation scholars, academics and professionals working with visual narratives, this volume provides essential frameworks for understanding how meaning is constructed and transferred across language and cultural boundaries in illustrated and sequential art forms.
