This outstanding collection brings together eminent contributors to examine some crucial connections between postcolonial theory and translation studies. As English becomes an increasingly global language, more people become multilingual and translation becomes a crucial communicative activity. The essays in this book, by contributors from Britain, the US, Brazil, India and Canada, examine the relationships between language and power across cultural boundaries, and reveals the vital role of translation in redefining the meanings of culture and ethnic identity.
