Translation and Gender
Translation and Gender places recent work in translation
against the background of the women's movement and its critique
of "patriarchal" language. It explains translation practices
derived from experimental feminist writing, the development of
openly interventionist translation practices, the initiative to
retranslate fundamental texts such as the Bible, translating as a
way of recuperating writings "lost" in patriarchy, and
translation history as a means of focusing on women translators
of the past.
