Translation studies, as an academic field, is relatively young and still defining its scope. This is largely because conveying cultural elements through literary translation is a complex process that draws upon many layers of human experience, such as history, social structures, religious beliefs, traditional practices, and everyday life. In recent years, translation has gained renewed prominence within English studies in India. This rising interest is closely linked to the country’s post-colonial mindset, which encourages a critical reassessment of Western literary dominance. Today, English functions as a major medium for translation in India, serving as an important linguistic bridge across diverse cultures and languages.
