"New Approaches to Translation, Conflict and Memory signals a refreshing contribution to scholarship taking place at the intersection between translation studies and Iberian studies in particular ... . the volume paves the way for further insights into how translation participates in other sites of conflict and memory, in and beyond Iberia. May this be just one of many more works on this topic to follow." (Gabriella Martin, Translation Studies, April 26, 2021)
