Taken aback to see that my article on Latour and translation, with Piotr Blumczynski for The Translator, is topping the charts for the journal’s most-read this year. Really proud of this work www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Reassembling the ruins: revisiting Latour’s concept of translation in Modernity’s growing aftermath
