Reflections on the cultural and political complexities of translation in global contemporary artistic practices.

The movement of global populations, and subsequently the task of translation, underlies contemporary culture. Economic and environmental migration, forced political exiles, and the plight of refugees are now superimposed upon the intricacies of ancient and modern diasporas, generations of colonization, and the transportation of slaves. This timely anthology considers translation's ongoing role in cultural navigation, empathy, and understanding disparate experiences. It explores the approaches of artists, poets, and theorists in negotiating increasingly protean identities--from the intrinsic intimacy of language, to translation's embedded structures of knowledge production and interaction, to its limitations of expression, and, ultimately, its importance in a world of multiple perspectives.

HEALING NOTICED WITHIN A WEEK
Format: Paperback
Words are very important and knowing what words to pray or speak sometimes evades me. When I got my copy of DECREES THAT HEAL from the author, I began to pray and speak God’s Word over my body and within a week I noticed I was being healed. Here’s my journal entry: Journal entry 11/28/23 HEALING The growth on my back is shrinking daily and is the smallest it has been in the past 5 years. I just called the surgeon to cancel my upcoming appointment to have it surgically removed. My plan is to continue speaking DECREES THAT HEAL over my body. Thank You JESUS for all You have done for Your people! UPDATE 1/16/24: The growth on my back is still shrinking and is now about the size of a small English pea. It no longer itches, burns and hurts. Little by little my healing is manifesting. I praise God!
