      abstract = {In the fascist regimes of the mid twentieth century - this  volume the focuses on Italy, Germany, Spain and Portugal -  translation was a carefully, though not always  successfully, managed cultural practice. Translation  policies attempted to steer public perceptions and promote  or brake ideological change. Translation Under Fascism  examines translation practices under fascism within their  historical context - from publishers' biographies,  institutional constraints and long-term literary trends  right down to the textual choices made by translators and  editors in individual translations. All these aspects of a  translation analysis allow insight into the workings of  international cultural exchange in times of dictatorship,  and are of interest equally to translation scholars and  historians of culture in the periods concerned. The  spectrum of translation policies and practices presented  here indicates different paradigms, different obsessions  and different institutional frameworks, but also shared  rhetorical motifs such as the ideas of translation as a  cultural weapon and translation as a form of cultural  contamination.},
