Female speech in Japanese translation is overly feminised compared to real Japanese women’s discourse (esp. See Furukawa 2013a). As such, it appears that women’s language is not a ‘real’ language variety used by Japanese women but, rather, a type of knowledge that Japanese women are assumed to possess. That is, the over-feminising convention maintains and reinforces gender ideology and the subordinate position of women in Japanese society, and makes women invisible and unheard in Japanese translation. Thus, this paper investigates how the idea of feminism can be incorporated in Japanese translation, and what the meaning of feminist translation is in the Japanese context by exploring Feminism and western feminist translation.
