Summary: Translation Studies as a discipline has passed through different trajectories. In the contemporary era, most of the scholarship in this field is concerned with postcolonial and subaltern translations, often working under the wide rubric of Cultural Studies. Endorsing cultural translation as a powerful tool of postcolonial and subaltern interrogations, this book is an invaluable addition to the growing corpus of scholarship in this field. The emphasis on cultural translation and cultural identity, at a time when transnational migration and a globalized world order complicate the notion of a stable cultural identity, makes this book a useful resource for readers interested in the issue of Culture. Articles by scholars belonging to diverse areas provide an interdisciplinary perspective on Translation Studies.
