Abstract

The article focuses on the Kalima Translation Project launched by the Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and Heritage in 2007. Based on the archives and introductions of works translated into Arabic, the article investigates the criteria used to select foreign works, the position of translated literature within the polysystem of the Arab Gulf, and the perception of the other that emerges from them.
