Abstract

been overlooked – Serbia, an Eastern European country where feminist and gender equality ideas arrived relatively late on the scene. By examining the media reception of the Serbian translation of a popular children’s book, the author draws thought-provoking conclusions that point to the necessity of introducing feminist and gender-related topics in Serbia – through either original works or translations. New perspectives on gender and translation will appeal to an international readership of students and scholars in the wider field of feminist and gender studies in a range of disciplines not confined to translation studies. The ‘European turn’ that characterizes the essays in this collection will hopefully generate both local and transnational dialogues, debates and activism.
