Understanding Misunderstanding. Vol.1: Cross-Cultural Translation
This book explores the covert and overt creative potential of misunderstanding.Viewed from the authors’ perspective, misunderstanding proves an elementary and unavoidable aspect of linguistic and cultural communication that can have a surprisingly beneficial impact on social relations and concomitantly stimulate the emergence of new cultural forms.As the authors of the book prove, cross-cultural contact is definitely a dynamic and asymmetric process rather than a static and symmetric transfer of values from one culture to another.

It Must Be a Misunderstanding : New and Selected Poems
Shortlisted for the Sarah Maguire Prize for Poetry in Translation 2024.Shortlisted for the Premio Valle Inclán Prize 2023. Mexican poet, teacher and translator Coral Bracho was born in Mexico City in 1951.She has published several books, two in English thanks to the brilliant poet-translator Forrest Gander, who has put this composite volume together, the first time Bracho has been extensively published in the UK. An extensive selection from Bracho's earlier work, which 'altered the landscape of Mexican poetry' (World Literature Today), is accompanied by the entirety of her new book, of which Gander writes: 'Although composed of individual poems, It Must Be a Misunderstanding is really a deeply affecting book-length work whose force builds as the poems cycle through their sequences.The “plot” follows a general trajectory—from early to late Alzheimer's—with non-judgmental affection and compassionate watchfulness.We come to know an opinionated, demonstrative elderly woman whose resilience, in the face of her dehiscent memory, becomes most clear in her adaptive strategies.The poems involve us in the mind's bafflement and wonder, in its creative quick-change adjustments, and in the emotional drama that draws us across the widening linguistic gaps that reroute communication. Bracho's poems have philosophical and psychological underpinnings even when they are descriptive.Her work has always managed to mix abstraction and sensuality, but in this book the two merge into a particularly resonant combination. 'We are inside a mind, maybe many minds, considering a mystery with signal attentiveness, openness, and love.'

What causes misunderstanding in Germany?
Misunderstandings in Germany can be caused by cultural differences, language barriers, and different communication styles. For example, Germans tend to be very direct and value punctuality, which can be misinterpreted by people from other cultures as being rude or inflexible. Additionally, the use of formal language and adherence to rules and regulations in German society can lead to misunderstandings with those who come from more informal or flexible cultures. Lastly, historical events and stereotypes can also contribute to misunderstandings in Germany, as they can shape perceptions and interactions between different groups of people.
