Résumé
The emergence of modernism in India in the 1950s and 1960s was a time of experimentalism for Bombay poets. The hybrid transactions that took place between translation and creative writing, between English and other Indian languages, not only expose the simultaneous confluence of local and world literature, but also propose a form of belonging as a “defiant all-inclusive category” (Kolatkar), an open-ended process of translation where origins become irrelevant.
