It proposes to bring the issue of caste and its textual representation in contemporary Indian literature into the classrooms of universities in Indian and abroad. The Textual representation of caste in contemporary Indian literature is, of course, to be made available and accessible to university students through their translations into English. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut the issue of Translating Caste is not only an issue of communicating certain narratives about caste across languages or, even, across cultures. The narratives about caste which constitute the core of this collection, in themselves are engagements in an enterprise of translation-the translation of caste as asocial institution into an assortment of cultural discourses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSTORIES\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOorakali by Irathina Karikalan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Paddy Harvest by Mogalli Ganesh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBayen by Mahasweta Devi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Childhood Tale by Urmila Pawer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarried to Separateness by Narain Singh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSukritam by M T Vasudevan Nair\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDoiboki’s Day by Arupa Patangia Kalita\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat is My Caste by K P Ramanunni\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCRITICAL COMMENTARIES\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOorakali: A Reading by Hephzibah Israel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCast(e)ing Wicked Spells: Gendered Errancy in Mahasweta Devi’s Bayen by Brinda Bose\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCASTE OVERVIEW\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Narratives of Suffering: Caste and the Underprivileged by Sisir Kumar Das\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNarratives of Suffering: Dalit Perspectives by Tapan Basu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough Another Lens: Men, Women and Caste by Uma Chakravarti\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome issues in an Analysis of Caste and Gender in Modern India by G Arunima\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Dalit Woman Speaks Up: Amhihi Ithihas Ghadawala Excerpts from a dialogue with Urmila Pawar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSelect Annotated Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBiographical Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUser’s guide to notes, Bibliographic Reference and Abbreviations \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The India Club","offers":[{"title":"Tapan Basu \/ Katha \/ Paperback","offer_id":68153730793840,"sku":"7772","price":28.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5203\/9792\/files\/7772.jpg?v=1793913281","url":"https:\/\/marketcalvexa.shop\/products\/translating-caste","provider":"Alderstone House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
