    Abstract

    As part of a wider project exploring literary translation in the United Kingdom, the present article profiles the three named postgraduate taught courses focusing exclusively on literary translation which are currently available at universities in the United Kingdom: the MA in Literary Translation at the University of East Anglia (UEA); the MA in Literary Translation Studies at the University of Warwick; and the MA in Audiovisual and Literary Translation at the University of Essex. After providing a concise summary of the situation regarding (literary) translator training in the British context, online sources are used to obtain information regarding the structure and course content of each of the three degree programmes under analysis. The findings are presented, contrasted, and discussed, before some proposals for further research are outlined.

    Rewriting as Reception: Gary Snyder’s Representation of Chuang Tzu in His Eco-Poetic Literature

    Bilin Liu
    View PDF
    Abstract

    Authored by the Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi, Chuang Tzu is another culturally significant Taoist canon, aside from Tao Te Ching. Due to its essential role in the development of Chinese philosophy and literature, Chuang Tzu has drawn the attention of sinologists worldwide to introduce this oriental masterpiece to their cultures and influenced the local literati. Burton Watson’s high-quality rendition The Complete Work of Chuang Tzu(1968) has been well-received by the renowned American poet Gary Snyder, who, based on Watson’s translation, rewrote Chuang Tzu in his eco-poetic literature to show his agreement with Zhuangzi’s philosophies. Most of scholars studying Snyder, however, seem to ignore his reception of Chuang Tzu and are more inclined to credit Tao Te Ching alone for his familiarity with Taoism. Thus, this study explores Snyder’s understanding of Chuang Tzu. Borrowing André Lefevere’s concept of rewriting and seeing it as a method of reception, this article conducts a comparative analysis between Snyder’s compositions and (Watson’s translation of) Chuang Tzu and investigates how Zhuangzi’s philosophies were rewritten and interpreted in Snyder’s context. It is found that Snyder rewrote Chuang Tzu mainly through commentary and imitation, and that some ideas were embraced directly while others were redefined and repositioned.

    The Relationship between Translated Fairy Tales and Oral Narrative Tradition: Charles Perrault’s Contes in Georgian Folklore

    Elene Gogiashvili
    View PDF
    Abstract

    What does put Little Red Riding Hood in her basket when she arrived in Georgia? What was the name of that demonic antagonist who met Little Thumb? An overview of archival sources gives an account of characteristics of Georgian folkloric adaptations of Charles Perrault's fairy tales. The paper deals with transmissions between the categories of "oral" and "literary", and relations between translated print products and oral narratives. The comparison of literary and folkloric versions of fairy tales shows certain features that are universal and serve as a medium between the literature and oral narrative traditions.

    Translating Russian Literature into Italian: A Case Study between Language and Culture

    Ilaria Remonato
    View PDF
    Abstract

    Abstract: The present article focuses on some reflectionsabout the process of translation into Italian of the well-known Russian fairy tale by Aleksey Nikolaevich Tolstoy(1882-1945) Zolotoy klyuchik, ili Priklyucheniya Buratino(The Little Golden Key, or the Adventures of Burattino, 1935). Basing from the methodological point of view on some recent acquisitions of international TranslationTheory, we will examine the main “difficulties” or “challenges” for the translator present in the source text, such as anisomorphisms, linguistic connotations, neologisms, cultural realia and phraseologisms. We willalso consider the employment of different stylistic registersin the tale, often connected to the characters’ “expressiveaura” and to thick intertextual allusions to Russian Silver Age. Our lexical and stylistic choices in the translated text will be analyzed with regard to the dominants of the original work and to the specific characteristics of Russian(and Soviet) children literature of the time. Some solutionsproposed in the two published Italian versions of the 1980swill be also taken into account, questioning the opportunityand the main orientations of a new translation in relation to the kind of “implied readers” expected.

    Errors and Difficulties in Translating Maritime Terminology

    Ioana-Raluca Visan
    View PDF
    Abstract

    This paper is part of an extensive research project on maritime language translation, which I consider to be a crucial but neglected area in translation studies, despite the maritime industry's significant relevance in today's world. It is essential to note that the maritime industry is vital to global trade and economic growth, providing employment opportunities worldwide and playing an increasingly important role in marine environmental protection. Although maritime activity generates a considerable amount of translation work, there is still a shortage of empirical research on the challenges of translating maritime genres, particularly with regards to terminology. This paper aims to address this gap by identifying the main difficulties encountered in translating maritime terminology and common errors that translators tend to make. It also draws useful comparisons between specialized texts written in English and their Romanian counterparts (and vice versa), highlighting the contrasts between the two languages and the impact of maritime terminology.

    Contributions to the Translation of Paremias

    Julia Sevilla Muñoz, Elke Cases
    View PDF
    Abstract

    The unique nature of paremias or short, sententious sentences, presents several translation problems. This article shows how the use of ICTs and the preservation of paremias contribute to the existence of different types of consultation sources (journals, monographs, repertoires, didactic proposals), which facilitates both the search for correspondences as well as the teaching / learning of them in the translation classroom. After explaining the concept of the word “paremia” and the typology of the different types of paremias, we explain the translation techniques that have been disseminated thanks to ICTs, to afterwards present different publications on paremias freely available on the Internet: a selection of multilingual databases, articles in journals, activities and didactic units for the translation class. Particular emphasis will be placed on reference sources concerning paremias in Spanish, such as multilingual databases: the Gotzon Garate collection (Fundación Bilbao Bizkaia Kutxa), the Refranero multilingüe (Centro Virtual Cervantes, Cervantes Institute) and ParemioRom (University of Barcelona).

    Lettera in Proverbi by Antonio Vignali: Paremiological Study

    Maria Antonella Sardelli
    View PDF
    Abstract

    In the volume entitled Las cartas en refranes en España en el siglo XVI: Blasco de Garay (Sardelli, in press) we approach the study of letters in sayings in the Spanish literary tradition of the 16th century, with special attention to the work of Blasco de Garay, the maximum representative of this genre that combines the epistolary model and the use-abuse of sayings. In the same tradition, some Italian works of the 16th century seem to have been conceived with the same intention of playing with the proverb, so that the paremiological element becomes the very skeleton of an epistle which, deprived of this sententious charge, also loses all possible meaning.

    In this work, we will devote ourselves to the paremiological analysis of an exemplary letter of this peculiar genre, the Lettera in proverbi by Antonio Vignali, which contains more than 300 sententious statements and phraseological units. After classifying the paremias found, we will analyse the methodology of their insertion in the text and their function in the economy of the letter.

    A Functional Typology by Christiane Nord in Corporate Newsletters’ Translation (English to Spanish)

    Natalia Sgibneva
    View PDF
    Abstract

    This paper revises the implementation of the functional typology by Christiane Nord in the translation and localization of the corporate newsletters from English (Great Britain, EN-GB) to Spanish (Spain, ES-ES). Christiane Nord defines the following text functions: referential, expressive, appellative and phatic. At the same time, she distinguishes between documental and instrumental (equifunctional or heterofunctional) texts and their respective translations. Following this typology, the paper analyses different text types that can be found in corporate newsletters and makes an insight on applicability and usability of this theory for the translation of this kind of texts. The examples belong to the corporate newsletters of the British fashion company Burberry.

    The grandiose novel of William Faulkner “Absalom!Absalom!” is a majestic example of a piece of writing which encompasses diverse layers of plots, social layers, and dramatic collisions, revealed through intricate linguistic apparatus, particularly a very specific syntactic organization.  The paper is an attempt to make a close comparison of the original and the Armenian texts of the novel, translated by Levon Mkrtchyan. The analysis of the syntactic complexity of the novel and its appropriate rendering into the Armenian language has been conducted within the framework of three sets of translation methods, elaborated by J.P.Vinay’s and J. Darbelnet and M.Baker. The results of the investigation manifest a striking deviation from the original text on the syntactic and textual levels. Scrupulous quantitative and qualitative data and interpretation are provided in the conclusion.
