Robinson’s engagement with translational aspects of Finnegans Wake provides rich and useful insights into experimental translation that encourage new approaches to translation theory and practice. The author analyses Joyce’s serial homophonic translations, portmanteau words, and heteronyms, with close readings of Finnegans Wake along translational lines (following Fritz Senn, Clive Hart, Patrick O’Neill, and others), alongside a showcase translation of Walter Benjamin’s “Task of the Translator” using all three experimental techniques borrowed from the Wake.
The book will be a valuable addition to any postgraduate courses in translation theory, literary theory and Joycean literature. Translation scholars, students and researchers will find this text a compelling read.
Douglas Robinson is a prolific scholar, with three dozen books, seven dozen articles and book chapters, and numerous book-length translations from Finnish into English. He has taught all over the world, including University of Mississippi, the University of Jyvaskyla and the University of Tampere in Finland, Lingnan University and then Hong Kong Baptist University. Upon his official retirement in 2020 he became Emeritus Professor of Translation, Interpreting, and Intercultural Studies at Hong Kong Baptist University and Professor of Translation Studies and Head of the Division of English and Translation at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen).
