Abstract

The essay presents the reception of Jane Eyre on the Indian subcontinent. It examines the Indian motif within Brontë’s novel, surveys seven literary and cinematographic Jane Eyre adaptations in five Indian languages produced between 1914 and 1972, discusses the history of Indian translation practices and presents eighteen Jane Eyre translations into nine Indian languages that appeared between 1953 and 2020, and finally synoptically analyses four passages from two literal translations into Hindi and Kannada and an abridged translation into Gujarati. Throughout, the essay proposes a new approach to narrative analysis based on an Indian dramaturgical model, a new definition of translation and adaptation based on the Indian philosophical notion of transformation, and a new criterion drawn from Indian poetics for distinguishing between the notions of adaptation, abridgement, and translation.
