Book excerpt: Nel 1938, un ragazzino, Luca, conosce Alex, di due anni più grande. A volte insieme, a volte separati, affronteranno i primi anni della guerra mondiale in maniera diversa. Si innamoreranno entrambi della stessa ragazza, ma per uno dei due la vità non è che sofferenza e morte, perché nel suo sangue, come nel sangue di suo padre, scorre la follia. Sia Luca che Alex possiedono un passato famigliare travagliato, e la guerra farà perdere loro ogni convinzione e ogni speranza, portandoli all'annichilimento totale, all'impossibilità di un riscatto. Tra le macerie delle città devastate dalle bombe, le vite dei due ragazzi e di altre persone toccate dalla tragedia umana che è la guerra finiranno per convergere in un'unica silenziosa richiesta. La pace.
Download or read book Traces of mediation in rewriting and translation written by Margherita Ulrych and published by EDUCatt - Ente per il diritto allo studio universitario dell'Università Cattolica. This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the bridge-building metaphor is undoubtedly a legitimate way of approaching most forms of mediation, there is increasing evidence in the literature that this is not always the case. The scenario in which mediation operates is much more complex and it is one in which mediators’ compliance or resistance to contextual and socio-cultural factors and prevailing norms in a given point in history play a major role. Attention is increasingly being focussed on the nature of the rewritings they produce and on how their agency is made manifest. This holds true for rewritings that take place within the same language, across language boundaries and in the growing area of audio-visual translation. In his article on “The Name and Nature of Translator Studies” (Chesterman 2009) and in his interview of Baker in the first issue of Cultus, (Chesterman and Baker 2008), Chesterman draws attention to the central role occupied by the translator both in the workplace and as an object of research and proposes to make use of the term “‘telos’ to denote the personal motivation of translators” (2009:17) as a companion term to the more familiar term “skopos” already used in translation studies to indicate the intended effect of a translation in the target culture. Thus, “telos” serves to investigate the personal goal of a translator within the context of a specific task, a matter closely related to the ethics of the profession. Since translation necessarily involves some kind of active intervention on the part of the translator (Munday 2007), be it conscious or unconscious, whereby events are rewritten and renarrated, and as “translation passes through a continua of transformation, not abstract ideas of identity and similarity” (Benjamin 1996:70), research into translators’ teloi may well shed new light on why and how they translate and may usefully complement current studies on translation behaviour as it emerges from translated texts. Of particular interest in this regard is the broadening of the notion of translation to include other forms of rewriting in which the rewriter’s interventionist role is a central feature. The present volume addresses various forms of translation and rewriting and explores the strategies rewriters use to achieve their goal of rendering the target text accessible to its recipient audience. “Knowing how” to rewrite in English entails developing an awareness of the whys and wherefores of rewriting. Just as knowledge about language leads to awareness of language, which in turn leads to increased efficiency and sensitivity to language, so familiarity with the general principles of translation and rewriting leads to enhanced competence and performance.

Download or read book FORT VERENA May 24 1915 04 00 Trilogy of the Great War written by Francesco Nicolini and published by Edizioni Il Fiorino Modena. This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These memories, handwritten by Elmo Cermaria (Nonno Peppe) for his grandson Checco (Francesco Nicolini), tell of when, as a young man of 20, he found himself hurled into the inferno of the First World War. In those days, you could cry your heart out for a bread roll denied, then miraculously regained thanks to the compassion of a German soldier, “the hated enemy”. These recollections are terse, without a trace of rhetoric and devoid of recriminations. Nonno Peppe tells the facts just as he experienced them first hand, without expressing any condemnation of those responsible for them, even though an awareness of the large-scale massacre he witnessed transpires from his account. When Nonno Peppe delivered the manuscript to his grandson on his wedding day, he asked him to make a promise: “Let the President of the Republic know what we did for Italy.” A hundred years ago, whole generations of young Italian men were stripped of human honor and dignity. Only a few of these young men would live on and become our grandfathers; and only a few of us would be fortunate enough to become “grandchildren of the Great War” and bear witness to their ordeal.

Book excerpt: Bastiano è un ragazzo povero che vive nell'Italia del '45. Sua sorella Isa è morta da poco a causa dei fascisti. In poche settimane Bastiano subirà un profondo cambiamento che lo porterà a riflettere sul rapporto che aveva con la sorella e sul rapporto che gli italiani hanno tra di loro, come se fossero fratelli che non sanno di esserlo e, perciò, si uccidono a vicenda. La mia fredda voce di osservatore si mischia a quella calda di Bastiano, e la storia risulta spesso interrotta dai pensieri del ragazzo. Un piccolo libro su un'Italia disperata e stanca di combattere. Marco
