SEEING THROUGH THE “OTHER”, EXPOUNDING ON THE METAPHORICS OF TRANSLATION: THE CASE OF HÉLÈNE CIXOUS, CLARICE LISPECTOR AND ANNA AKHMATOVA
Abstract
The other in all his or her forms gives me I. It is on the occasion of the other that I catch sight of me; or that I catch me at: reacting, choosing, refusing, accepting. It is the other who makes my portrait. Always. And luckily. The other of all sorts, is also of all diverse richness. The more the other is rich, the more I am rich. The other, rich, will make all his or her richness resonate in me and will enrich me.
