This paper examines the work Dictee by Korean-American writer and artist Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, and the work Translations by Irish playwright Brian Friel, to analyze ways in which these two texts demonstrate how (or whether) a language of colonization may transform into a language of decolonization, or rather, how (or whether) cultural translation in postcolonial period may effect decolonization. The postcolonial period after political independence does not necessarily allow former colonized people to embark on a new beginning/s, following from the fact that colonial expreince has already contaminated the postcolonial period, and furthermore, neo-colonial threat by former empires often burdens the period. The metaphor of cannibalism—the metaphor of the project of cultural translation former colonized people undertake during the postcolonial period—indicates the extent to which former colonized people can appropriate and abrogate colonial legacies as they engage with how to negotiate with the colonial past and legacies in the postcolonial period.
Friel's Translations and Cha's Dictee expose such a process of decolonization, yet in different manners. Both interestingly revisit and represent the colonial past in Korea and Ireland, highlighting impositions of colonial policies by colonizers on colonized people, as well as respective and subsequent postcolonial effects. They indicate ways in which to register voices of difference, resistance, and subversion in a language imposed by colonizers and adopted by the colonized, so as to pursue a breaking away from colonial order and move towards decolonization. Translations and Dictee, hence, show ways in which former colonized people come to terms with painful colonial history and its legacies, as they have to engage in a difficult and ongoing postcolonial struggle, and more to establish a decolonized postcolonial culture.
