Bücher von Susan Bassnett

This volume examines the relationship between language and power across cultural boundaries. It sheds light on how English and Tamil acted as a conduit for cultural transmission among different groups during the first phase of colonialism - mid-18th to late-19th century - to explore the vital role of translation in redefining ethnic identity.

This collection of essays brings together a decade of writings on translation by leading international translation studies expert, Susan Bassnett. The essays cover a range of topics and will be useful to anyone with an interest in how different cultures communicate.
