English term or phrase: resistive
Cultural differences are emphasized and translation is seen as coming to terms with "Otherness" by "resistive" or " foreignizing" translations which emphasize the difference and the foreignness of the text.

Le differenze culturali vengono risaltate e la traduzione viene comparata a espressioni come "singolarità" attraverso di traduzioni "...." o "forestiere" che evidenziano le diversità e il carattere straniero del testo!

Aiutooooooooo!!!

restio (restie)
Explanation:
Restio: nel senso di poco propenso al cambiamento.

Vengono messe in evidenza le differenze culturali e la traduzione e' vista come un compromesso (come se scendesse a patti) con la "mutabilità" attraverso traduzioni restie o esterofilizzate", rimarcandone le diversità e l'origine straniera (del testo).

Mi sono preso la licensa di cambiare 'otherness' in mutabilita', ma come l'hai tradotto tu va benissimo (singolarita'). Ho preso anche altre liberta', solo un'idea.
