This includes the role of translation in the semi-periphery and the conditions under which literature travels to and from that position. The focus is not on Sweden, as such, but rather on the semi-peripheral transitional space as exemplified by the Swedish case.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Consisting of three co-written chapters, this study sheds light on what might be called the semi-peripheral condition or the semi-periphery as an area of transition. As part of the Cosmopolitan and Vernacular Dynamics in World Literatures series, it makes continuous use of the concepts of 'cosmopolitan' and 'vernacular' – or rather, the processual terms, \u003ci\u003ecosmopolitanization\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003evernacularization – \u003c\/i\u003ewhich provide an overall structure to the analysis of literature and literary phenomena. In this way, the authors show that the semi-periphery is an ideal point of departure to further the understanding of world literature, because it is a place where the cosmopolitan (the literary universal) and the vernacular (the rootedness in a particular culture or place) interact in ways that have not yet been thoroughly explored.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe eBook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 3.0 licence on Bloomsbury Collections.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChatarina Edfeldt \u003c\/b\u003eis Senior Lecturer of Portuguese Literature at Dalarna University, Sweden.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eErik Falk \u003c\/b\u003eis Collaboration Coordinator at Södertörn University, Sweden.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndreas Hedberg \u003c\/b\u003eis Senior Lecturer in Comparative Literature at Uppsala University, Sweden. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eYvonne Lindqvist\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Translation Studies at Stockholm University, Sweden. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCecilia Schwartz \u003c\/b\u003eis Associate Professor of Italian Literature at Stockholm University, Sweden. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePaul Tenngart \u003c\/b\u003eis Associate Professor of Comparative Literature at Lund University, Sweden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 February 2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781501374241\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e304\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20.16\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63761889951884,"sku":"9781501374241","price":121.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/getimage_d9af387a-2e00-4ee0-b5cb-406958bb4467.jpg?v=1794363778","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781501374241","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
