On this article is developped a cultural translation’s concept anallysis of Homi Bhabha’s writes (from 1980th to 2000th) from his reception of Walter Benjamin’s The Task of The Translator. It highlights political and culture’s concept implied on cultural translation concept elaboration considering “benjaminian’s” vocabulary such as translability, untranslatable, intention (intencionality) among others. To this end, it is briefly approached to Bhabha’s reference: to Salman Rushdie’s literature, to contemporary migrations, and colonial India’s documents. We argue that The Task of the Tranlsator’s reception is seminal on Bhabha’s writes to political-analitical propose to foreground otherness by cultural translation.
