- This is the first book-length study of authorship in translation, and the first in-depth study of the translated writing of the influential East German writer, Christa Wolf. The book offers a theoretical innovation in its synthesis of theoretical perspectives on authorship and social narrative, and covers a wide range of primary material in the detailed analysis of translations and their paratexts. The study was the product of several years’ work and represents a significant contribution to contemporary debates across a range of disciplines including German Studies, Translation Studies and Comparative Literature.
