Romantic Literature and the Colonised World
This book considers indigenous-language translations of Romantic texts in the British colonies.

The book demonstrates the ways in which colonial controversies around prayer, song, hospitality, naming, mapping, architecture, and medicine are drawn out by translators to make connections between Romantic literature, its preoccupations, and debates in the nineteenth- and early twentieth-century colonial worlds.
