Download or read book THE BASICS OF CROSS CULTURAL UNDERSTANDING written by Dr. Sri Herminingrum, M.Hum.; Sri Utami Budi, M.A. and published by Media Nusa Creative (MNC Publishing). This book was released on with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is suitable to be utilized as a learning process material for students whose class activity are focused in elaborating cultural communication. A number of quotes on opinions, statements, research results, and other sources from relevant experts are successfully collected and neatly sorted according to the concept of chronological order, which would support the students’ learning. The data exposed are the bases to construct two-way communications among people in a community or society who belongs to the category of different culture groups. The examples of psychological, socio-cultural problems put forward in this book are also highly representative, because they can be used as cultural communication strategy. By imparting the understanding of definitions, terms, principles, and meanings from the cultural aspects, the author invites the readers, especially university students who are learning how to build the bridge of communication through a medium known as cross cultural understanding. Additionally, clues for discussion arranged by the authors are quite apprehensible for students to broaden their horizon of cross-cultural understanding. These clues for discussion offer chances for the students to search for various other sources, such as blogs, research articles, journals, valid news, and so on. Of course, this will bring them to the knowledge that, without putting aside the role of language, different culture will affect the ways of communication. It is no doubt that this book will be very useful according to its purpose. This is due to the fact that the main author, Sri Herminingrum, is an academic with the field of expertise in culture. Not only as a senior lecturer of the cultural and literary studies but also as an independent researcher whose main concern is about socio-cultural phenomena, which highly support the launch of this book. Of course, the contribution of the second author, Sri Utami Budi, whose field of study is related to the written material, is very valuable for the completion of this book.

Download or read book Il Bel Centro written by Michelle Damiani and published by Rialto Press. This book was released on 2020-08-09 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A witty and warm-hearted memoir of abandoning fast-paced American days in favor of discovering the Italian secrets of food, community, and life. Moving across the globe meant Michelle Damiani soon found herself untangling Italian customs, delighting in glorious regional cuisine (recipes included), and creating lasting friendships. From grandmothers eager to teach the ancient art of pasta making, to bakers tossing bread into fiery ovens with a song, to butchers extolling the benefits of pork fat, Il Bel Centro is rich with captivating characters and cultural insights. Throw in clinking glasses of Umbrian red with the local communists and a village all-nighter decorating the cobblestone streets with flower petals; as well as embarrassing language minefields and a serious summons to the mayor’s office, and you have all the ingredients for a spellbinding travel tale. Exquisitely observed, Il Bel Centro is an intimate celebration of small town Italy, as well as a thoughtful look at raising a family in a new culture and a fascinating story of finding a home. Ultimately though, this is a story about how travel can change you when you’re ready to let it. With laugh-out-loud situations and wanderlust-inspiring storytelling, Il Bel Centro is a joyous and life-affirming read that will have readers rushing to renew their passports. “This is one of the most beautiful book I’ve ever read.” “I absolutely couldn’t get enough of this book.” “This book made me want to pack my bags.” “I loved, loved this book. Fabulously written, engaging, and entertaining.” “A magical read.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translating Culture Specific References on Television provides a model for investigating the problems posed by culture specific references in translation, drawing on case studies that explore the translational norms of contemporary Italian dubbing practices. This monograph makes a distinctive contribution to the study of audiovisual translation and culture specific references in its focus on dubbing as opposed to subtitling, and on contemporary television series, rather than cinema. Irene Ranzato’s research involves detailed analysis of three TV series dubbed into Italian, drawing on a corpus of 95 hours that includes nearly 3,000 CSR translations. Ranzato proposes a new taxonomy of strategies for the translation of CSRs and explores the sociocultural, pragmatic and ideological implications of audiovisual translation for the small screen.

Download or read book Italian Forgers written by Carol Helstosky and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2024-05-15 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Italian Forgers takes an unorthodox approach to the fascinating topic of art forgery, focusing not on art forgery per se, but on the major forgery scandals that shifted the Italian art market in response to constant, and often intense, demand for Italian objects. By focusing on power dynamics that both precipitated forgery scandals and forged Italian cultural identities, this book connects the debates and discussions about three well-known Italian forgers—Giovanni Bastianini, Icilio Joni, and Alceo Dossena—to anchor and investigate the mechanics of the Italian art market from unification through the fascist era. Carol Helstosky examines foreign accounts of transactions and Italian writings about the art market. The actions and words of Italian dealers illustrate how the Italian art and antiquities market was an undeniably modern industry, on par with tourism in terms of its contribution to the Italian economy and to understandings of Italian identity. These accounts also reveal how dealers, artists, go-betweens, guides, and restorers worked to not only meet the intense demand for Italian products but also to develop highly sophisticated business practices to maintain financial stability and respond to shifts in demand consciously (but not always conscientiously). Italian Forgers weaves a compelling narrative about the history of Italian identity, forgery, and the value of the past. As a result, Helstosky brings historical perspective to the study of art forgery and art fraud. She reveals how historical circumstances and structural imbalances of cultural power shaped the market for art and antiquities and amplified incidents of art deception and forgery scandals.
