About the Book

"This edition is proof that multicultural, interdisciplinary, and international research on 'translating Canada' is a worthwhile and successful endeavor."
- American Review of Canadian Studies

 

“Translating Canada is a revealing and compelling book: it has literary-critical and sociological value, and it speaks beyond the mechanics of the Canada–Germany cultural transfer to draw a fascinating multifaceted portrait of how Canada is perceived through a German lens.”
- The Year’s Work in English Studies

 

"Translating Canada is a highly recommendable collection for scholars from diverse fields such as Canadian Studies, German Studies, Comparative Literature, Translation Studies, and Political Science."
