Produktbeschreibung
Relying on Jorge Luis Borges' (1972) theory of creative infidelity as the main theoretical framework for my professional practice and ontological reflection upon literature, translation, authorship, and originality, this study ends up inevitably overthrowing adamant ontological schisms that regrettably saturate much of our artistic historiography. After all, according to my idea of performative translation, it is not the translator's point of departure or his/her deliberate destiny that need to be stressed, but the journey per se.
