The volume examines the colonial ethnography of translating nineteenth century European classics into languages of South Asia through the lens of modernity and knowledge production. It engages with the idea of texts often circulating outside their contexts and thereby provoking debates of purely local and indigenous significance. The chapters in the volume unravel the complex transcultural identities of South Asian existence by inscribing translation studies in the conceptual framework of decolonisation. The volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of South Asian studies, literary and cultural studies, postcolonial studies, and translation studies.
