- Abstract
- This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book focuses on the ethical consequences of different translation strategies, this time to convey the memory of perpetrators of mass political violence. It examines the commemoration of the 2004 siege of School No.1 in Beslan, North Ossetia-Alania. The book reviews a project titled Refugee Tales, involving symbolic walks that link histories of asylum seekers in Britain to iconic memory sites such as Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales, Kafka’s ‘The Metamorphosis,’ and Magna Carta. Working across the verbal and the visual, Michelle Liao reveals how the contrasting narrative choices of the exhibition catalogue and text panels are driven by stakeholder attempts to distance the Chinese visitor from a traumatic moment in collective memory, and to distance the English-speaking visitor from the problematic Victorian gaze of the photographer.
