Wandering Translation
In this paper, I propose to reconstruct Sch¨¹rmann¡¯s early concept of translation in dialogue with Eckhart and Heidegger and in connection with the concept of releasement. Taking recourse to the different versions of his research on Eckhart¡¯s German sermons, from his early thesis and dissertation to the French and American editions of Wandering Joy, I comment on Sch¨¹rmann¡¯s practice of translation and seek to elucidate the stylistic, existential and ontological dimensions of his translation theory. In conclusion, I discuss the relevance of what I call ¡°wandering translation¡± for contemporary philosophy of translation.
