المستخلص: Exploring linguistic representations of women and gender related issues in literary translation has gained considerable importance in the last two decades. The present study examined gender equality and feministic concerns in literary translation. Moreover, the study explored the role of feminism in literary translation and the main challenges facing the translator in literary translation. To this end, data were collected through a semi-structured interview with Dr. Azad Hama Sherif and two well-known literary works he had translated to Kurdish: Love in a Torn Land by Jean Sasson and Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. In the interview, the translator’s beliefs and stated practices about literary translation and his view on feminism and feministic issues in translation were explored. Regarding the literary works that he had translated to Kurdish, the source texts and the target texts were read, and texts related to the research were highlighted for the purpose of investigation. The interview was transcribed thematically and the source texts and the target texts were compared at the level of words, sentences, and paragraphs. Results of the interview showed that although the translator did not mark himself as a feminist, he wanted to promote gender equality in translating literary works, particular texts related to freedom and equality. Concerning the literary works (i.e., Love in a Torn Land and Brave New World), the translator had generally tried to communicate the meaning and maintain neutrality. However, in some cases the equivalents chosen to describe women’s personality, attitudes, and behaviors lacked fidelity. Implications of the study and suggestions for further research are provided at the end of the study.
