Traduzindo a negritude: percursos, desafios e impasses para os Estudos de Tradução na contemporaneidade
Keywords:
Intercultural Translation, Power, Afro-BrazilAbstract
The present article presents aspects of a work in progress about both African-American and Afro-Brazilian Literatures as well as Translation Studies. As it makes observations about how blackness has been translated in different contexts and geographical spaces, it calls the reader’s attention to power relations, processes of colonial and post-colonial identity construction, the rising of literary canons, cultural hegemony and globalization, demystifying spaces and showing translation as an activity that does not take place in a neutral space, but, for sure, inside social and political concrete situations.
