Recherche

Currently I am researching the nexus of civil society, world heritage and development in Stone Town, Zanzibar.
My Post doc project was "Images and Imaginations: The History of
Arabic, African and Latin American Literatures in Translation into
Swedish." In this project two colleges and I studie how these
translations become part of discourses about those regions, and also
contribute to them. We studied how Swedish contexts and interests
have determined which literature was translated, and how it was presented
to its readers. We were looking among other things for what we call the
Swedish benevolence discourse.
