Memory travels in translation. Translation is an act of memory. Translating Memories of Violent Pasts stages a rich conversation between experts from memory studies and translation studies. Their essays not only throw light on where two vibrant research fields meet, but also demonstrate compellingly the stakes of memory translation in our age of violence and trauma. An enlightening read! Astrid Erll, Goethe University Frankfurt
