Beyond English: World Literature and India radically alters the debates on world literature that hinge on the model of circulation and global capital by deeply engaging with the idea of the world and world-making in South Asia. Tiwari argues that Indic words for world (vishva, jagat, sansar) offer a nuanced understanding of world literature that is antithetical to a commodified and standardized monolingual globe. She develops a comparative study of the concept of world literature (vishva sahitya) in Rabindranath Tagore's works, the desire for a new world in the lyrics of the Hindi shadowism (chhayavaad) poets, and world-making in Thakazhi Sivasankara Pillai's Chemmeen (1956) and Arundhati Roy's The God of Small Things (1997). By emphasizing the centrality of literature (sahitya) through a close reading of texts, Tiwari orients world literature toward comparative literature and comparative literature toward a worldliness that is receptive to the poetics of a world in its original language and in translation.

While many professional translators believe the ability to translate is a gift that one either has or does not have, Allison Beeby Lonsdale questions this view. In her innovative book, Beeby Lonsdale demonstrates how teachers can guide their students by showing them how insights from communication theory, discourse analysis, pragmatics, and semiotics can illuminate the translation process. Using Spanish to English translation as her example, she presents the basic principles of translation through 29 teaching units, which are prefaced by objectives, tasks, and commentaries for the teacher, and through 48 task sheets, which show how to present the material to students. Published in English.

Most of what we know about writing in a second or foreign language (L2) is based on conclusions drawn from research on L2 writing in English. However, a significant quantity of L2 writing and writing instruction takes place in languages other than English and so there is a need for studies that look beyond English. The chapters in this book focus on languages other than English and investigate curricular issues, multiple languages in contact/conflict in L2 writing instruction and student attitudes toward pedagogical practices. The collection as a whole makes a valuable contribution to the study of L2 writing, and it will also prove an essential resource for instructors of second and foreign language writing.

Have you ever asked yourself any of these questions: "Why am I here? What is my purpose in life? If there is a God, is He listening to me? Why did God allow this horrible thing to happen? How do I get past my past? How do you forgive the unforgivable? Does God really bless those who are faithful to Him? What do I do if I'm called to the ministry?" If you have, then this book is for you-whether you're a boy or girl, man or woman, in the ministry or not. You're about to take a journey through the true life story of a young lady who has been through many difficult trials, but God turned those crushing moments into beautiful testimonies. God showed her the way out of the personal prison she had put herself in and called her to help others out of their own. Through all the times of abuse, tragedy, and loss, God brought peace, comfort, joy, healing, and ultimately forgiveness to her heart and life. Our human nature is to try to "fix" ourselves but often times we just make a bigger mess. There are some things that are just too big for us-beyond our control or ability. That's when we find ourselves at the mercy of a loving and powerful Savior. He is here to give you that purpose you're looking for, that healing you're desperate for, that fresh start you're begging for. All you have to do is surrender and ask."
