Abstract:

"Honour killings" refer to the deliberate killing of a person, usually a woman, because the perpetrator feels that the victim's acts have brought shame or disgrace to their family or community. Often, family members or close relatives commit these deadly crimes in an attempt to restore the family's reputation for honour. Honour killings can have a variety of reasons, but they usually centre on actions that are thought to go against social, religious, or cultural norms. These behaviours can include accepting an organized marriage proposal, dating someone outside of your group, or marrying someo

Abstract:

The honour based violence comprises homicide as well as assault, rape, confinement, acid attacks, forced marriage, and female infanticide. The causal effect to maintain honour is attached to behavior of women that triggers perturbation in existing norms of a society. Therefore, it becomes a subject of domestic domain rather than state quarters, and it is not specific to certain societies. The word ‘honour’ stemmed out from the Latin word ‘honos’, which means worthiness of a person or a group in a society. Later on, it implied adverse assumption of maintaining it through women’s behaviors. The

Moreover, this choice makes the women vulnerable to the alleged supreme caste, religious group and old guards of the society.

The term 'Honour Killing' is conventionally used to denote a specific category of extralegal killings where the act of murder is seen to have been motivated by pre-modern affiliations/sentiments of some sort. Acts of violence committed against people for marrying outside of caste/religion/ethnicity or other similar infringements where they are seen by their actions to have besmirched the honour of the family and the larger community come under the broad rubric of honour crime.

Crimes related to the offender's cultural background are exceptional, and require special attention in many ways. Firstly, they come as far more shocking than the “typical” offences in a given society, due to their peculiar and infrequent nature. Secondly, as they are so much specific, they pose a serious challenge for law enforcement bodies, and it may seem that they are a significant problem for courts, who must face foreign and often culturally obscure situations and behaviour.

Salah satu karakteristik negara demokratis adalah kesamaan semua orang di depan hukum. Namun, di negara-negara dimana pembunuhan karena kehormatan (honour killing) masih dipraktikkan oleh masyarakat, persamaan tidak selalu berlaku. Hal ini terutama terjadi di kalangan keluarga yang menganut sistem bahwa wanita berada di bawah kendali laki-laki. Honour killing yang merupakan praktik yang diberlakukan terhadap anggota keluarga yang melanggar kebiasaan adat yang berlaku, ditemukan di banyak negara, termasuk negara-negara Muslim.

Episodes of ideological concern related to honour norms and construction of social meanings depicted through paintings are pertinent in foregrounding the social realities of Pakistan. This paper analyzes the grammar of paintings from the perspective of gender roles assumed in the context of honour. The grammar of the visual design of five paintings painted by male and female Pakistani painters belonging to different areas of Pakistan have been qualitatively studied in the light of the social semiotic framework suggested by Kress and Leeuwen (2006).

Abstract:

This article examines the challenges of translating gender-based violence (GBV), focusing on English translations of select Hindi fiction depicting ‘honour’ killing—a specific form of GBV. Situated at the intersection of caste, gender, and sexual violence, these texts challenge societal structures and often remain non-canonical or controversial. As markers of violence, they present significant linguistic, cultural, and ethical challenges for translators. Honour killing narratives, often classified as ‘problem texts,’ expose the faultlines of the socio-cultural framework in which they are set.
