Abstract

In multicultural, multilingual, India, languages are constantly engaged in a colloquy, thus making the translational exercise a living, continuous attribute of subcontinental existence. This essay is a reflection on the purpose and pertinence of the exercise of translation in the context of a deeply personal engagement with it in a constantly changing and complex politico-historical matrix. Revisiting both gratifying and frustrating translational experiences over the years, I attempt to uncover its value to humanity and its long-term impact as a bridge between different linguistic cultures.
