IMPORTANT NOTICE

It has come to the Society's notice that some unscrupulous elements are collecting money for publishing papers in the Society's Journal and offering bogus certificates. The Asiatic Society does not collect money for publishing in its journal, nor does it guarantee publication, and neither does it issue any certificate. Authors must verify with the Society before submitting any papers, and papers will be published only after rigorous peer review. The Society does not take responsibility for any payments made to third parties claiming to represent the Society, or for their papers appearing in a cloned/spam journal.

“Two Cultures, One Language: Four 19th Century Gujarati Texts”
by Tulsi Vatsal and Aban Mukherji
on Wednesday 4th October 2023 at 5 p.m.

Apart from language, the translation of 19th century texts requires both a close understanding of the cultures being addressed as well as familiarity with the historical context in which the works were written. This talk will examine the relevance of four texts, two written by Parsis, two by Gujaratis and illustrate the distinctive style, tone and treatment of the authors.
Books:
* Dukhi Dadiba and the Irony of Fate by Dadi Edulji Taraporewala
* Karan Ghelo by Nandashankar Mehta
* Relating to Dahigauri by Narmada Shankar Dave
* Travels in Iran by Kavasji Dinshaw Keasna
Tulsi Vatsal, a graduate of Oxford University, is an independent researcher, writer and editor.
Aban Mukherji is a freelance writer and translator. She has a Master’s degree in History. They have co-translated a number of books from Gujarati.

Tea will be served at 4.30 pm.
