Routledge Disability in Translation: The Indian Experience

Explore the complex relationship between disability, language, and culture in this academic volume from Routledge. This book examines how disability is perceived, written about, and understood through the lenses of literature and translation. By looking at the power relations within language, the text shows how disability is constructed and used in different cultural contexts. The essays provide a theoretical look at the process of translating Indian-language stories into English. These stories specifically address disability as a central subject. This work helps readers understand the mechanics of translating specific idioms related to disability while working to recover and empower voices that are often pushed to the margins. It is an essential resource for those studying literary theory, translation studies, and the social construction of disability within the Indian experience.
