| 520 | |a In her masterful book, Arduous Tasks, Lina Insana argues persuasively that Primo Levi became discouraged about translation's potential to transmit Holocaust testimony. By the time he completed his translation of Franz Kafka's The Trial, he had come to doubt whether he could, as a witness to the Holocaust, carry his and others' experiences over the threshold of understanding. He questioned whether the relationship between testimony and translation, both of which he saw as critically necessary to making manifest the violence of the mid-twentieth century, did not in fact undermine the authenticity of both. | ||
