Book Ernest Hemingway in Interview and Translation

Download or read book Ernest Hemingway in Interview and Translation written by Mirosława Buchholtz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-07-21 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book offers an innovative approach to the study of Ernest Hemingway’s fiction and biography. It juxtaposes two perspectives that have been underrepresented in Hemingway studies so far: translation and interview. The book is divided into three sections which mirror the key words in the title: interview and translation. Section One explores the “last” interviews with Hemingway in their historical context of the Cold War. Section Two focuses on the achievement of Bronisław Zieliński, Hemingway’s Polish translator and friend, who is hardly known outside Poland. The section gives a detailed account of their correspondence in the years 1958-1961. Section Three is an account of experiments in translating Hemingway’s famous story “Cat in the Rain” (1925) by groups of Polish university students. Its aim is to illustrate the extent to which literary translation may influence the construction of the text’s meaning.

Book Conversations with Ernest Hemingway

Download or read book Conversations with Ernest Hemingway written by Ernest Hemingway and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These firsthand interviews and newspaper accounts constitute a valuable edition to the sizable and ever-growing Hemingway shelf. They let Papa speak his mind, and the inimitable Hemingway voice comes through clearly: the boastfulness, the fierce ambition, the love of prizefighting and the bullring, the snappish impatience with questions (and questioners) he didn't like, and the high seriousness and dedication to his craft. The pieces from the early days are largely short snippets from newspapers; it is only later - from the 1940s on - that Hemingway begins to get the star treatment from publications such as the New Yorker or George Plimpton's Paris Review. Consequently the best comes last. A splendid, delicious book - for Hemingway fans, one well worth savoring.

Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER More than ONE MILLION copies sold A TODAY Show Read with Jenna Book Club Pick A New York Times Notable Book, and Chosen by Oprah Daily, Time, NPR, The Washington Post, Bill Gates and Barack Obama as a Best Book of the Year “Wise and wildly entertaining . . . permeated with light, wit, youth.” —The New York Times Book Review “A classic that we will read for years to come.” —Jenna Bush Hager, Read with Jenna book club “Fantastic. Set in 1954, Towles uses the story of two brothers to show that our personal journeys are never as linear or predictable as we might hope.” —Bill Gates “A real joyride . . . elegantly constructed and compulsively readable.” —NPR The bestselling author of A Gentleman in Moscow and Rules of Civility and master of absorbing, sophisticated fiction returns with a stylish and propulsive novel set in 1950s America In June, 1954, eighteen-year-old Emmett Watson is driven home to Nebraska by the warden of the juvenile work farm where he has just served fifteen months for involuntary manslaughter. His mother long gone, his father recently deceased, and the family farm foreclosed upon by the bank, Emmett's intention is to pick up his eight-year-old brother, Billy, and head to California where they can start their lives anew. But when the warden drives away, Emmett discovers that two friends from the work farm have hidden themselves in the trunk of the warden's car. Together, they have hatched an altogether different plan for Emmett's future, one that will take them all on a fateful journey in the opposite direction—to the City of New York. Spanning just ten days and told from multiple points of view, Towles's third novel will satisfy fans of his multi-layered literary styling while providing them an array of new and richly imagined settings, characters, and themes. “Once again, I was wowed by Towles’s writing—especially because The Lincoln Highway is so different from A Gentleman in Moscow in terms of setting, plot, and themes. Towles is not a one-trick pony. Like all the best storytellers, he has range. He takes inspiration from famous hero’s journeys, including The Iliad, The Odyssey, Hamlet, Huckleberry Finn, and Of Mice and Men. He seems to be saying that our personal journeys are never as linear or predictable as an interstate highway. But, he suggests, when something (or someone) tries to steer us off course, it is possible to take the wheel.” – Bill Gates

Book Ernest Hemingway as a Site of Cultural Translation

Download or read book Ernest Hemingway as a Site of Cultural Translation written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This thesis considers the field of Hemingway studies in France from the 1920s until present, focusing in particular on notions of authorship in translation. Cultural translation allows for a comprehensive study of Hemingway in French translation, whereas focusing merely on the literary aspect of translation would not account for the myriad of other factors involved in defining the field of Hemingway in French. Close study of the critical work on Hemingway reveals that there are three factors engaged in the translation of Hemingway into French: literary translation, critique, and the organizational structures that establish the relationship between these two. Since Hemingway's first publications and French translations in the 1920s, there have been two forces that have dominated the translation and critical construction of Hemingway in French through these three factors: the Nouvelle revue française (Gallimard) and Universities. This thesis explores the way in which these two forces have actively translated and constructed the field of Hemingway in France".

Book Umami

    Book Details:
  • Author : Laia Jufresa
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2016-07-07
  • ISBN : 1780748930
  • Pages : 256 pages

Download or read book Umami written by Laia Jufresa and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-07-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In five extraordinary apartments live five extraordinary families. Designed in the shape of a tongue, each apartment takes the name of a flavour – sweet, salty, sour, bitter and umami. And the tenants are no less eccentric. In Umami lives retired food anthropologist Alf, landlord and creator of the building. At Bitter lives manic depressive Marina, who neither eats nor paints but invents colours with words; at Sour lives newly parented (as well as New Age) couple Daniel and Daniela; and at Salty lives the Perez-Walkers with their daughter Ana, aka Agatha Christie, a precocious twelve-year-old who spends her days buried in detective novels to forget the unresolved death of her younger sister. Alf is also grappling with the death of a loved one. Recently bereaved, he types letters to his dead wife in the hope she will somehow respond, and together Alf and Ana lean on and support one another – until their lives threaten to spiral out of control. Darkly comic and dizzyingly inventive, Umami is a remarkable and heart-wrenching novel that is as compelling as it is whimsically devastating. Laia Jufresa’s work has appeared in McSweeney’s, Pen Atlas and Words Without Borders. In 2015 she was invited by the British Council to be the first ever International Writer in Residence at Hay Festival in Wales, and in the same year she was named as one of the most outstanding young writers in Mexico as part of the project México20. Umami is her first novel. She lives in Cologne, Germany. Sophie Hughes is a literary translator and editor living in Mexico City. Her translations have appeared in Asymptote, PEN Atlas, and the White Review and her reviews in the Times Literary Supplement and Literary Review.

Book Anthony Bourdain  The Last Interview

Download or read book Anthony Bourdain The Last Interview written by MELVILLE HOUSE and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times Bestseller The brilliant intellect and candor of Anthony Bourdain is on full display in this collection of interviews from throughout his remarkable career, with an introduction from The New Yorker's Helen Rosner. Anthony Bourdain always downplayed his skills as a chef (many disagreed). But despite his modesty, one thing even he agreed with was that he was a born raconteur—as he makes clear in this collection of sparkling conversations. His wit, passion, and deep intelligence shine through all manner of discussion here, from heart-to-hearts with bloggers, to on-stage talks before massive crowds, to intense interviews with major television programs. Without fail, Bourdain is always blisteringly honest—such as when he talks about his battles with addiction, or when detailing his thoughts on restaurant critics. He regularly dispenses arresting insight about how what’s on your plate reveals much of history and politics. And perhaps best of all, the heartfelt empathy he developed travelling the world for his TV shows is always in the fore, as these talks make the “Hemingway of gastronomy,” as chef Marco Pierre White called him, live again.

Book  There s No One Thing That s True   It s All True

Download or read book There s No One Thing That s True It s All True written by Casey M. Waites and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few critics have investigated the way in which Hemingway addresses the act of translation within his 1940 novel, For Whom the Bell Tolls. In "'There's No One Thing That's True; It's All True:' Language and Identity in Ernest Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls" I utilize For Whom the Bell Tolls to explore Hemingway's method of translating Spanish to English. I argue that Hemingway simultaneously espouses and eschews language as a medium to convey the daily struggles and culture of the disenfranchised Spanish people. By keeping certain words and phrases in Spanish, Hemingway imposes a sense of foreignness onto the text, and I argue that keeping the original Spanish helps the audience to identify with another culture and to enrich the target language of English. Hemingway also seeks to alienate the reader from understanding Spanish culture by portraying the Spanish language as a distinct, untranslatable medium of regional identity. The entirety of the conversations written in English involves an invisible, but palpable, translation from Spanish, and I explore the way that this invisible translation adds a layer of ambiguity and uncertainty to the text as a means of conveying the untranslatability of culture except through the lens of an 'insider' narrator. My analysis further complicates the idea of an 'insider:' is it possible to be an insider to another culture so much so that the insider can 'translate' culture for a foreign audience? Following this reading, I assert that translation plays a powerful role in Hemingway's presentation of events and characters insofar as he repeatedly acknowledges the power of language in defining personal identity while underscoring the failure of language to define experience. "'There's No One Thing That's True; It's All True:' Language and Identity in Ernest Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls" addresses scholarly lacuna by demonstrating that Hemingway sophisticatedly represents Spanish translation, and lack thereof, to both invite the reader into Spanish culture during the Spanish Civil War and also to exclude the reader from true cultural understanding because of the reader's lack of personal experience with the Spanish people.
