Translation as Growth: Towards a Theory of Language Development

Couverture
Pearson Education India, 1900 - 244 pages
Translation as Growth: Towards a Theory of Language Development useful for students and scholars of literature, comparative literature and linguistics, and translators, argues that translation, like authoring, is a creative act enriching both the original and translated language. It discusses the development of major modern Indian languages through ‘vertical’ translations from the languages of power and knowledge, English and Sanskrit as well as by engaging in ‘horizontal' translations of one another, ultimately creating a pluralistic body of literature in India.
