Is multilingualism in India to be understood as a neatly laid set of discrete languages or a criss-crossing of languages that runs through every source language and text? The questions take us to reviewing what is meant by language, multilingualism and translation. Challenging these institutions,\u003cbr\u003e\nA Multilingual Nation illustrates how the received notions of translation discipline do not apply to India. It provocatively argues that translation is not a ‘solution’ to the allegedly chaotic situation of many languages, rather it is its inherent and inalienable part.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAn unusual and unorthodox collection of essays by leading thinkers and writers, new and young researchers, it establishes the all-pervasive nature of translation in every sphere in India and reverses the assumptions of the steady nature of language, its definition and the peculiar fragility that is revealed in the process of translation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143471080\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.5 x 5.3 x 1.3 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vintage Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50752860815664,"sku":"Prakash_9780143471080","price":375.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/61y9SXTq0oL.jpg?v=1770728622","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/a-multilingual-nation-translation-and-language-dynamic-in-india-with-a-new-foreword-by-professor-christi-merrill","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
