Translation is a tool used for hegemony and shaping others in postcolonial relations. Cultures attempt enforcing their power and domination through defining other cultures using translation. From the understanding of the importance of the role translation plays in hegemonic relations evolved the theories of postcolonial translation. "[Translation is] the reconstitution of the foreign text in accordance with values, beliefs and representations that pre-exist it in the target language, always configured in hierarchies of dominance and marginality" (Venuti, 1995, p. 209). Postcolonial translation theories define and explore how translation can be utilized as a tool for shaping and identifying other cultures. The translation investigated in the context of this paper is the translation of Nawal Saadawi's The Innocence of the Devil translated by Sherif Hetata and published by University of California Press in 1994. It was originally published in Arabic under the title annât wa-Iblîs in 1992. Nawal Saadawi is an Egyptian renowned author. She has held many positions in her life as the Director General for Public Health Education but she lost that position, was exiled and imprisoned because of her political views. She has written numerous works in various genres as novels, collections of short stories and non-fiction books. All her works have been translated in different languages and are being taught in Western universities. In her writings, she discusses the suffering of women in the patriarchal society. In her early years, she has worked as a physician in Egyptian hospitals and saw the results of the physical and psychological oppression women went through. This shapes her feminist identity and can be traced in many of her works where she often discusses and criticizes
