Broad in its scope and forward-thinking in its approach, this book offers a wide-ranging thematic exploration of key debates on contemporary translation in Latin American literature and culture.Featuring 22 chapters, some of which have been translated themselves, from a variety of the field's leading authorities alongside up-and-coming voices from around the world, it is organized in seven sections that correspond to fundamental sets of political, literary, and cultural questions that have emerged throughout the continent’s history. Sections focus on colonialism, race, gender and sexuality, the archive, creation and authenticity, politics, and world literature to offer a broad and ambitious snapshot of where the field is now as well as where it is going. Each essay demonstrates a way of doing translation studies by looking closely at texts and moments, whilst simultaneously drawing larger conclusions that are applicable to other objects of study.Mapping emerging trends in this vibrant field, it provides specialists, researchers and students with an invaluable and expansive collection of current research on translation in Latin America.

How contemporary Latin American and Latinx writers transform the bildungsroman genre to explore the present and imagine possible futuresThis volume explores how twenty-first-century Latin American and Latinx writers and filmmakers are redefining the bildungsroman or coming-of-age story genre within today’s socioeconomic, cultural, and technological contexts, including the fractures of colonial history, inequality, authoritarianism, and forced migration.Bringing together novels, films, and television from across the Americas, the collection reveals protagonists who forge connections not through the nation-state but through alternative forms of community. Indigenous, Afro Latin American, queer, and migrant youth seek belonging in local and transnational communities through punk, reggaeton, skating, comics, videogames, and other cultural expressions. From an Afro Caribbean “bruja bildungsroman” to narratives shaped by social media culture and queer autoethnography, these works highlight the struggle to reconcile the self with exclusionary societies. The Contemporary Latin American and Latinx Bildungsroman illuminates how these young protagonists shape their societies through resistance and by imagining different futures.
