In episode 113 of Globally Speaking, we talk to Dr. Sherry Simon, Distinguished University Research Professor at Concordia University in Montreal, about the role of translation in shaping a city’s history. We look at how people’s perspectives of cities change depending on language, the traces translation leaves on cities and how a traveler should seek to understand a city through ‘ghost signs’. Tune in to hear all this and more.
