Description

Translation in Asia: Theories, Practices, Histories by Routledge challenges the Western-centric foundations of translation studies by examining how Asian societies have developed distinct translation traditions shaped by multilingualism and oral cultural transmission. Rather than adhering to conventional notions of fixed texts and faithful renderings, many Asian cultures emphasise performance, change, and fluid interpretation as central to translation practice. This comprehensive volume explores how different Asian societies have sustained alternative understandings of what constitutes an original work, a translation, and the relationship between them. By moving beyond print-literate, monochromatic frameworks, the book reveals how translation in Asia functions as a dynamic cultural process deeply embedded in local contexts, historical circumstances, and linguistic realities. Essential reading for scholars, students, and professionals interested in translation theory, comparative literature, linguistics, and Asian studies.

Key Features

Translation in Asia examines multilingual societies and oral cultural traditions that diverge from Western translation study models.

The book explores alternative concepts of text, original, and translation developed across diverse Asian contexts.

Routledge's scholarly volume emphasises performance and cultural change over literal equivalence in translation practices.

Coverage spans translation theories, historical practices, and contemporary applications across multiple Asian regions and languages.
