Translation, before 9/11, was deemed primarily an instrument of international relations, business, education, and culture. Today it seems, more than ever, a matter of war and peace. In The Translation Zone, Emily Apter argues that the field of translation studies, habitually confined to a framework of linguistic fidelity to an original, is ripe for expansion as the basis for a new comparative literature. Organized around a series of propositions that range from the idea that nothing is translatable to the idea that everything is translatable, The Translation Zone examines the vital role of translation studies in the "invention" of comparative literature as a discipline. Apter emphasizes "language wars" (including the role of mistranslation in the art of war), linguistic incommensurability in translation studies, the tension between textual and cultural translation, the role of translation in shaping a global literary canon, the resistance to Anglophone dominance, and the impact of translation technologies on the very notion of how translation is defined. The book speaks to a range of disciplines and spans the globe. Ultimately, The Translation Zone maintains that a new comparative literature must take stock of the political impact of translation technologies on the definition of foreign or symbolic languages in the humanities, while recognizing the complexity of language politics in a world at once more monolingual and more multilingual.

Ken Saro-Wiwa gained international acclaim ad a human rights activist, an environmental crusader and a leader of the Ogoni, one of Nigeria's major ethnic groups in the oil-producing Niger Delta. However his life was more complex, more comprehensive, and more controversial. He combined the creative impulse of the artist with the critical outlook of a commited human being. In this book Femi Ojo-Ade presents a compelling analysis of the man, his life and work. An intellectual, a businessman andd a politician, Saro-Wiwa explores all those existential realms in his writings. He was an impassioned partisan in the Nigerian civil war during which he became a close friend of the military who, ultimately, became his hangmen after a highly questionable murder charge. Saro-Wiwa's life is symptomatic of the dilemma of the potentially progressive elements within the African intelligentsia, confused in their quest for change by their inexplicable and often fatal attraction to military dictatorships whose objective, ever retrogressive, have always been geared towardds self-perptuation in power. Even in death, Saro-Wiwa remains relevant as the Nigerian tragedy of oppression and environmentall degradation in the killing fields of the oil-producing area's, continues anabated.
