It has the power to form and\/or deform cultures through sustained manipulation of the translation process and all that goes into it: from texts chosen for translation to the words used. But nowhere has manipulation through translation been more damaging than in the cultural exchange of goods between the Arab\/Islamic worlds and the West. Drawing on this complex cultural relationship, the chapters in this volume address issues such as the rise of a master discourse of translation; pseudo-translation; self-translation; and the historiography of translation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSaid Faiq is Professor of Translation \u0026amp; Intercultural Studies at the American University of Sharjah, where he is Chair of the Department of Language and Literature and Director of the graduate program in Translation and Interpreting.
