| description |
The present case study draws a broad picture of the Dutch translator August Willemsen as an important cultural mediator. His translation work served as the key discursive bridge between Brazil and the Dutch-speaking world, between Brazilian literature and Dutch literature. As a typical cultural mediator, he undertook a variety of discursive transfer techniques: fictional writing, translation, transcreation, criticism, essays, studies as well as a variety of more or less institutionalised intercultural publishing and personal networking.
