| Summary: | This article reviews a new translation of a classic work of Marathi literature, the autobiography of Lakshmibai Tilak, which tells the story of her life with the great Christian poet Narayan Vaman Tilak. Three English translations of the autobiography are compared, and the story of the Tilaks is summarized. The meaning of discipleship to Jesus in Hindu contexts is explored. The challenge of translation is apparent, and appeal is made for further mining of Marathi original writings to bring out in yet deeper ways the genius and significance of Tilak. |
