Book Synopsis Oral and Written Narratives and Cultural Identity by : Francisco Cota Fagundes
Download or read book Oral and Written Narratives and Cultural Identity written by Francisco Cota Fagundes and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary volume centers on the interrelations of storytelling and various manifestations of cultural identity, from written to oral and from autobiographical to regional and national. Indigenous storytelling, as well as storytelling for and by children and the elderly, are the main focus of these essays. Together, these fifteen texts make a significant contribution toward a deeper understanding of various aspects of textual and oral narrative: they broaden the lines of inquiry into multidisciplinary and multicultural interests, particularly those centering on the construction, expression, and contextualization of various types of identity; and they illustrate the deployment of storytelling not only as testimony, contestation, and subversion - but also as peacebuilding. Many countries, languages and cultures are herein represented - from the United States and Canada to Japan, Singapore, and Malaysia, from English to Japanese to Greek to Italian to the languages of indigenous peoples of Latin America and the Philippines.
Book Synopsis Translation and Identity in the Americas by : Edwin Gentzler
Download or read book Translation and Identity in the Americas written by Edwin Gentzler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translation is a highly contested site in the Americas where different groups, often with competing literary or political interests, vie for space and approval. In its survey of these multiple and competing groups and its study of the geographic, socio-political and cultural aspects of translation, Edwin Gentzler’s book demonstrates that the Americas are a fruitful terrain for the field of translation studies. Building on research from a variety of disciplines including cultural studies, linguistics, feminism and ethnic studies and including case studies from Brazil, Canada and the Caribbean, this book shows that translation is one of the primary means by which a culture is constructed: translation in the Americas is less something that happens between separate and distinct cultures and more something that is capable of establishing those very cultures. Using a variety of texts and addressing minority and oppressed groups within cultures, Translation and Identity in the Americas highlights by example the cultural role translation policies play in a discriminatory process: the consequences of which can be social marginalization, loss of identity and psychological trauma. Translation and Identity the Americas will be critical reading for students and scholars of Translation Studies, Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies.
Book Synopsis Doubts and Directions in Translation Studies by : Yves Gambier
Download or read book Doubts and Directions in Translation Studies written by Yves Gambier and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like previous collections based on congresses of the European Society of Translation Studies (EST), this volume presents the latest insights and findings in an ever-changing, ever-challenging domain. The twenty-six papers, carefully chosen from about 140 presented at the 4th EST Congress, offer a bird's eye view of the most pressing concerns and most exciting vistas in Translation Studies today. The editors' final choices reflect a focus on quality of approach, originality of topic, and clarity of presentation, and aim at capturing the most salient developments in the contemporary theory, methodology and technology of TS. As always in EST, the themes covered relate to translation as well as interpreting. They include discussion of a broad range of text-types and skopoi, and a diversity of themes, such as translation universals, translation strategies, translation and ideology, perception of translated humor, translation tools, etc. Many of the papers force us to take a fresh look at seemingly well established paradigms and familiar notions, while also making recourse to work being done in other disciplines (Semiotics, Linguistics, Discourse Analysis, Contrastive Studies).
Book Synopsis Triangulating Translation by : Fabio Alves
Download or read book Triangulating Translation written by Fabio Alves and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2003-11-24 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains a selection of papers presented in a subsection on translation process analysis at the II Brazilian International Translators' Forum, held on 23-27 July 2001. The volume builds on the notion of triangulation, i.e., the combined use of different methods of data elicitation and analyses, to discuss methodological issues and actual experimental methods in the field of translation process research. Grouped in three parts, the seven contributions raise issues concerned, among others, with the translation-pragmatics interface, the role of inter-subjectivity, the attempts at modeling what accounts for translation competence, and the effect of think-aloud on translation speed, revision, and segmentation. The volume also examines the process of translation in terms of relevant measurements which can validate some of the instruments used in the triangulation approach and fosters the application of triangulation as a pedagogical instrument to be applied to translators' training. The book will certainly find an audience among translation scholars doing experimental work and students and practitioners interested in capturing the translation process.
Download or read book Visões written by William Blake and published by Iluminuras. This book was released on 2020-10-23 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Talvez o poeta mais original da literatura inglesa, William Blake foi uma espécie de símbolo das manifestações socioculturais dos anos 1960 e 1970. Ao lado da psicologia de Carl Jung e Sigmund Freud, da filosofia e da religião orientais, das experiências da geração beat e do flower-power, via-se em sua poesia a expressão de uma nova era de Aquário, a rejeição de uma ordem mundial fundada no materialismo em detrimento da espiritualidade. Passado meio século, aquelas manifestações são história, ou adquiriram outras formas, mas a ordem mundial permanece, de ponta-cabeça, mais materialista e mais bruta. E a poesia de Blake continua instigante expressão dos valores humanos, ainda mais relevante. Visões assinala essa relevância: reúne onze livros que Blake publicou de 1789 a 1795, com os quais procura evidenciar a coerência do essencial da obra e afastar a distorcida percepção de insanidade do autor. Os poemas testemunham a formação e o amadurecimento de sua visão de mundo, num fértil período de quase sete anos, quando na casa dos trinta: aqui o leitor encontra dos poemas líricos das Canções de Inocência e Experiência até o que se convencionou chamar de "profecias menores". A partir de 1794, Blake embarcou na sequência dos poemas-profecias menores, que o prepararam para os maiores (Milton e Jerusalem, escritos e gravados quase ao mesmo tempo entre 1804 e 1820). O primeiro deles é Europa, uma Profecia, uma narrativa política, seguido de O Livro de Urizen. A Canção de Los, O Livro de Ahania e O Livro de Los, todos de 1795, compõem a "Bíblia do Inferno" prometida em O Matrimônio do Céu e do Inferno: "Possuo também A Bíblia do Inferno, que o mundo há de possuir, quer queira, quer não". O escritor Anthony Burgess disse com clareza: "A razão, na verdade, é perigosa, assim como é a ciência; se todos nós vivermos num estado de liberdade individual plena, despreocupados com as leis, confiando no poder da percepção e, num nível inferior, no instinto, alcançaremos o céu na terra, que Blake chama de Jerusalém no prefácio de Milton". Na terminologia blakeana, alcança-se a plenitude espiritual através da imaginação. "Se as portas da percepção estivessem limpas, tudo se mostraria ao homem tal como é: infinito." Pouco lido e ignorado por seus contemporâneos, Blake foi "descoberto" vinte anos após sua morte, em 1827, quando impressões tipográficas dos poemas começaram a aparecer. Mas jamais foi popular, sempre foi controverso, mesmo entre outros poetas. Thomas Stearns Eliot, por exemplo, reconheceu nele uma "honestidade contra a qual o mundo inteiro conspira, porque é desagradável. A poesia de Blake tem o desagrado da grande poesia". Quase um elogio, porque, para Eliot, essa honestidade era limitada por sua falta de educação literária, o que o tornava um "ingênuo". Blake, concluiu Eliot, tinha "uma notável e original sensibilidade para a língua e a musicalidade da língua, e o dom da visão alucinada. Se estes tivessem sido controlados por um respeito pela razão impessoal, teria sido melhor para ele". Faltava a seu gênio "uma estrutura de ideias tradicionais e reconhecidas que lhe teriam impedido de entregar-se a uma filosofia própria, e assim concentrasse a atenção nos problemas do poeta. [...] A concentração resultante dessa estrutura de mitologia, teologia e filosofia é uma das razões pelas quais Dante é um clássico, e Blake apenas um poeta de gênio". Eliot falava em defesa das tradições latinas, a seu ver fundamentais para a cultura do Ocidente, ciente de que eram exatamente o que Blake rechaçava — e no entanto, dogmático, deu o veredito. Blake decerto não lhe teria dado ouvidos. "A verdade jamais será dita de modo compreensível sem que nela se creia. Suficiente! ou Demasiado."

Book Synopsis Literature in Translation by : Carol Maier
Download or read book Literature in Translation written by Carol Maier and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last several decades, literary works from around the world have made their way onto the reading lists of American university and college courses in an increasingly wide variety of disciplines. This is a cause for rejoicing. Through works in translation, students in our mostly monolingual society are at last becoming acquainted with the multilingual and multicultural world in which they will live and work. Many instructors have expanded their reach to teach texts that originate from across the globe. Unfortunately, literature in English translation is frequently taught as if it had been written in English, and students are not made familiar with the cultural, linguistic, and literary context in which that literature was produced. As a result, they submit what they read to their own cultural expectations; they do not read in translation and do not reap the benefits of intercultural communication. Here a true challenge arises for an instructor. Books in translation seldom contain introductory information about the mediation that translation implies or the stakes involved in the transfer of cultural information. Instructors are often left to find their own material about the author or the culture of the source text. Lacking the appropriate pedagogical tools, they struggle to provide information about either the original work or about translation itself, and they might feel uneasy about teaching material for which they lack adequate preparation. Consequently, they restrict themselves to well-known works in translation or works from other countries originally written in English. Literature in Translation: Teaching Issues and Reading Practices squarely addresses this pedagogical lack. The book's sixteen essays provide for instructors a context in which to teach works from a variety of languages and cultures in ways that highlight the effects of linguistic and cultural transfers.
Book Synopsis Is the Glass Half Empty or Half Full? Reflections on Translation Theory and Practice in Brazil by : Alice Leal
Download or read book Is the Glass Half Empty or Half Full? Reflections on Translation Theory and Practice in Brazil written by Alice Leal and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an unprecedented look into the field of translation studies (TS) in Brazil, placing emphasis both on the conflict theory vs. practice and on the reception of poststructuralist thought. The implied debate between the voices heard in the book represents a wide-ranging spectrum of viewpoints not only in TS in Brazil, but also in the humanities in general. Addressing issues such as the institutionalisation of translation, the aim of translation theory and translator training, the impact of poststructuralist thought on TS and the role of multilingualism in the area, this work offers an overview of the field of TS today, while proposing new strategies for translators and translation scholars that go beyond the conflicts between theory and practice and between structuralism and poststructuralism.

Download or read book The Gold Mind written by Khali Raymond and published by savage writer publishing. This book was released on 2022-03-14 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been some time since I last put out a project. I managed to branch out into film and music with much success, but I haven't forgotten my roots. I could never because the books have made me into the artist that I am today. Everything I learned from authoring I applied to many facets of my life beyond the arts. I remember in 2019 I said I wanted to quit writing because I felt like I wasn't receiving the support that I deserved. I realized I didn't need it from individuals who weren't willing to give me any. I feel like a new savage writer now. Made my way into the yonder so I could create blinding light amid the paralyzing darkness. Understand I would never let the ways of this world get me down, I could care less if there is a global pandemic or new world order. That ain't stopping me!
