Mohini Gupta

I am a DPhil candidate at the Faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies. I have been the Charles Wallace India Trust Translator-Writer Fellow in 2017, hosted by Literature Across Frontiers at Aberystwyth University. I have co-edited the upcoming volumes Rethinking Education in the Context of Post-Pandemic South Asia: Challenges and Possibilities (Routledge, 2023) and The Hindu Bard: The Poetry of Dorothy Bonarjee (Honno Press, 2023). An alumna of SOAS University of London, I have been a Research Fellow at Sarai, Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS); and a translator-in-residence at the Sangam House international writers’ residency in Bangalore. I have written on languages, literature and translation for publications such as The Caravan Magazine, Huffington Post, TheWire.in, Scroll.in, and the WorldKidLit Blog. My English-Hindi translations have been published by Tulika Publishers. I am also a trained Indian Classical (Hindustani) vocalist and a Western Classical pianist.
