The Translatability of Cultures by Sanford Budick
These essays-which consider a wide variety of cultures from ancient Egypt to contemporary Japan- describe the conditions under which cultures that do not dominate each other may yet achieve a limited translatability of cultures.

He is best known for his works The Implied Reader: Patterns of Communication in Prose Fiction from Bunyan to Beckett; The Act of Reading: A Theory of Aesthetic Response; Prospecting: From Reader Response to Literary Anthropology; and The Fictive and the Imaginary: Charting Literary Anthropology.
