Sinossi

"World Leaders Wives" explores the often-overlooked influence of spouses on world leaders, examining their impact on political events, social reforms, and cultural shifts. Moving beyond simple biographies, the book analyzes how these individuals wielded "soft power," influencing policy through social connections and subtle persuasion. It also delves into the personal sacrifices and constraints they faced, balancing personal ambitions with the demands of their partner's career.

 
The book unfolds by first introducing the concept of spousal influence and then examining specific instances where these individuals demonstrably shaped historical outcomes through detailed case studies. These case studies include figures from diverse geographical regions and historical periods.

 
Ultimately, the book discusses the implications of recognizing spousal influence for our understanding of power and historical change. By providing historical context and drawing upon various sources, including personal letters and official documents, the book challenges traditional, leader-centric narratives of history. It highlights the collaborative aspects of power, revealing the intricate networks of influence that operate behind the scenes and offering a more nuanced understanding of leadership.

Translating Myself and Others

Jhumpa Lahiri

Sneha Mathan narrates these luminous essays on translation and self-translation by award-winning writer and literary translator Jhumpa Lahiri

With an introduction, afterword, and acknowledgements read by the author
Translating Myself and Others is a collection of candid and disarmingly personal essays by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Jhumpa Lahiri, who reflects on her emerging identity as a translator as well as a writer in two languages.

With subtlety and emotional immediacy, Lahiri draws on Ovid's myth of Echo and Narcissus to explore the distinction between writing and translating, and provides a close reading of passages from Aristotle's Poetics to talk more broadly about writing, desire, and freedom. She traces the theme of translation in Antonio Gramsci's Prison Notebooks and takes up the question of Italo Calvino's popularity as a translated author. Lahiri considers the unique challenge of translating her own work from Italian to English, the question "Why Italian?," and the singular pleasures of translating contemporary and ancient writers.

Featuring essays originally written in Italian and published in English for the first time, as well as essays written in English, Translating Myself and Others brings together Lahiri's most lyrical and eloquently observed meditations on the translator's art as a sublime act of both linguistic and personal metamorphosis.
