| چکیده | ||
| As the world’s largest annual human gathering, Arbaeen pilgrimage is fast becoming an international event in which, according to several pieces of published news in some of the world’s top news agencies such as Independent, a number of people apart from Muslim countries, from several non-Muslim Asian, American, African and European countries participate. This remarkable event has adequate news values including impact, magnitude and bizarreness, but it is underrepresented and/or misrepresented by the western media. It deserves to be systematically discussed in academic discourse. This study made an attempt to situate Western media’s representation of Arbaeen within the reframing theory by Baker (2006)and the theory of cultural translation as introduced by Homi Bhabha (1994). The main research question to be pursued by this study was how Arbaeen pilgrimage has been reframed through a cultural translation by Western media in the last 10 years (from 2007 to 2017). To this end, news stories of the world’s top 10 news agencies covering Arbaeen pilgrimage were chosen as the corpus of this study. The corpus then was analyzed according to Baker’s (2006) narrative theory of translation that views translation as a reframing practice. Unlike the mainstream idea that Arbaeen pilgrimage is underrepresented by the Western media, the central argument here was that it is reconstructed and reframed within negative news stories and introduced to unknown audiences as a dangerous event, while this is a narrative with multiple positive implications including peace and solidarity among the nations with volunteers distributing free food and drinks to pilgrims, as well as offering places to relax, wash, and sleep only for Imam Hussein. | ||
