| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The key findings of the research project are that, firstly, recent movements in German poetry engage with translation by mapping out the conceptual coordinates for a particular way of writing that is both critical and contemporary in the era of accelerated globalization. Setting out the claim that experimental translation practices, - i.e., experimental forms of translation that sound-wise and/or meaning-wise displace an antecedent text through strategies of appropriation - are creatively used to investigate the cultural politics of ambivalent and often stigmatized symptoms in language, I elaborated new interpretations of works by contemporary German poets. Secondly, German poetry in the 20th and 21st century engages with theories and practices of translation to turn upon itself through its own self-transgression. Both key findings are reflected in my publications.
