Batchelor, Kathryn (19..-....)

Associate Professor of Translation and Francophone Studies, specialising in literary translation in Francophone Africa. She is currently leading the project ‘Building Images: Exploring 21st century Sino-African dynamics through cultural exchange and translation’. This project explores the dominant images of China that are being constructed for Africa, and vice versa. It asks how these images are channelled and shaped, and examines translation selection and exchange patterns in an effort to better understand Sino-African power dynamics.
