Research
Fatima’s research focuses on Punjabi literary translations published in the early twentieth century. She is interested in using these texts to understand the politics of publication in colonial Punjab. Her research engages with the complex interplay of colonial linguistic policies, print markets and the state-patronized literary corpus on Punjabi literary and intellectual culture.
