In Our Translated World: Contemporary Global Tamil Poetry is a bilingual (Tamil and English) anthology of Tamil poetry. This collection contains poems by 78 Tamils, of whom 21 are women.[1] The authors are from many countries, including India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Singapore, Canada, Australia and Europe. Similarly, their backgrounds and experiences are diverse, described as being "women and men, young and old, Hindu, Muslim and Christian".[2]
In a note about the importance of this work, Professor Sascha Ebeling of the Department of South Indian Studies, University of Chicago stated the following: "Never before has an anthology of Tamil poetry in translation offered such a broad perspective, and no other book to date demonstrates so well the fact that over the past two decades Tamil literature has become a truly global affair.".[3]
In Our Translated World is the result of a project undertaken by Tamil Literary Garden with funding from Ontario government's Trillium Foundation and others.[2] It was edited by Chelva Kanaganayakam,[4] professor in the Department of English and the Director for the Centre for South Asian Studies at the University of Toronto.[1] This book was released on 9 March 2014 at the Scarborough Convention Centre.[5]
