SAGAR: A South Asia Research Journal
Call for Papers: Spring 2002
Deadline is April 1
The SAGAR editorial collective invites contributions for its next issue on
the practice and politics of translation. In the context of literature,
translation has always posed critical challenges to the processes of writing
and representation. It has also far exceeded its literary dimensions and
increasingly stands as a metaphor for a range of disciplinary practices.
With this in mind, we solicit translations, research papers, critical
commentaries, and book reviews that address, but are not limited to, the
following themes:
· When and how do acts of translation also become acts of politics?
· How can underrepresented regional literature add new dimensions to
existing subaltern politics and perspectives?
· How do disciplines, such as history, anthropology, and cultural studies
among others, confront the challenge of interpretation as an act of
translation?
