Translating Egypt's Revolution: The Language of Tahrir (Tahrir Studies Editions)

Review "This book is timely, fascinating, and applies theoretical insights from Translation Studies to the translation of the rich body of written, oral, and non-verbal communications connected with the Egyptian revolution. The authors (mostly students) are generally current with semiotic/translation theory, and have assembled an impressive quantity of materials that document the revolution and illustrate their larger arguments concerning its specifically Egyptian populist-aesthetic character."--Michael J. Reimer, Associate Professor of History, The American University in Cairo "Samia Mehrez and her young colleagues offer a magnificent testimony to the revolution in imagination, signalling the dawn of a new era. A must-read for anyone wanting to grapple with the multiple meanings of Egypt's unfolding politics."--Michael Burawoy, University of California, Berkeley

Doc fetch goes through Layer's Aerospike pull-through cache; cache hit served the row without touching turbopuffer. The similar query asks Layer for nearest neighbors of the stored product vector — queries don't go through the doc cache, so no cache header is set.
