Download or read book What is Translation History written by Andrea Rizzi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-22 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a dynamic history of the ways in which translators are trusted and distrusted. Working from this premise, the authors develop an approach to translation that speaks to historians of literature, language, culture, society, science, translation and interpreting. By examining theories of trust from sociological, philosophical, and historical studies, and with reference to interdisciplinarity, the authors outline a methodology for approaching translation history and intercultural mediation from three discrete, concurrent perspectives on trust and translation: the interpersonal, the institutional and the regime-enacted. This book will be of particular interest to students and scholars of translation studies, as well as historians working on mediation and cultural transfer.

Book excerpt: Written by leading experts in the area, The Routledge Handbook of Spanish Translation Studies brings together original contributions representing a culmination of the extensive research to-date within the field of Spanish Translation Studies. The Handbook covers a variety of translation related issues, both theoretical and practical, providing an overview of the field and establishing directions for future research. It starts by looking at the history of translation in Spain, the Americas during the colonial period and Latin America, and then moves on to discuss well-established areas of research such as literary translation and audiovisual translation, at which Spanish researchers have excelled. It also provides state-of-the-art information on new topics such as the interface between translation and humour on the one hand, and the translation of comics on the other. This Handbook is an indispensable resource for postgraduate students and researchers of translation studies.
Download or read book Charting the Future of Translation History written by Paul F. Bandia and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2006-07-28 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last 30 years there has been a substantial increase in the study of the history of translation. Both well-known and lesser-known specialists in translation studies have worked tirelessly to give the history of translation its rightful place. Clearly, progress has been made, and the history of translation has become a viable independent research area. This book aims at claiming such autonomy for the field with a renewed vigour. It seeks to explore issues related to methodology as well as a variety of discourses on history with a view to laying the groundwork for new avenues, new models, new methods. It aspires to challenge existing theoretical and ideological frameworks. It looks toward the future of history. It is an attempt to address shortcomings that have prevented translation history from reaching its full disciplinary potential. From microhistory, archaeology, periodization, to issues of subjectivity and postmodernism, methodological lacunae are being filled. Contributors to this volume go far beyond the text to uncover the role translation has played in many different times and settings such as Europe, Africa, Latin America, the Middle-east and Asia from the 6th century to the 20th. These contributions, which deal variously with the discourses on methodology and history, recast the discipline of translation history in a new light and pave the way to the future of research and teaching in the field.
Download or read book Feeding the Future written by María del Mar Rivas Carmona and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2021-02-24 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The agri-food sector encompasses an extremely wide range of activities regarding the entire value chain of a product and generates a huge volume of work for translators. Nevertheless, the sheer proportion has yet to be truly reflected in academic studies and research. This work intends to shed light on the vague, and barely addressed until now, delimitation of the area of activity of the multifaceted and versatile agri-food translator. Through a text typologisation of genres and subgenres, within the margins of hybridity, specialisation and register, this work approaches the characteristics of scientific-technical, medical-health, legal-administrative, humanistic-literary, tourist, advertising and gastronomic and culinary agri-food texts, and assesses the skills required from their translator.

Download or read book Science in Translation written by Maeve Olohan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the crucial role played by translation in the history of scientific ideas and the transmission of knowledge, historians of science have seldom been interested in the translation activity which enabled the spread of those ideas and exerted influence on structures and systems of knowledge. Translation scholars, too, have traditionally shown little interest in theorizing scientific translation. Recent conceptualizations of science as public culture, institution, narrative and rhetorical practice open the way for research on the translation of science to take conceptual and methodological inspiration from studies of discourse, rhetoric, the sociology of science, the history of science, the philosophy of science and other related fields. This special issue of The Translator foregrounds the work of researchers, within or on the periphery of translation studies, who have begun to interrogate the representation of scientific knowledge through translation. Drawing on a wide range of disciplines and models, contributors engage with different perspectives and approaches to help promote the visibility of scientific translation and shed light on its complex relationship with power and the construction of knowledge.

Download or read book Decid Vivir written by Julie Hersh and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2014-09-23 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decidí Vivir es una historia de esperanza. La historia sobre mi experiencia personal con la depresión clínica se lee como una novela vertiginosa, con personajes que encantan y frustran. El contenido es duro, pero he aprendido que mi historia está lejos de ser única. La depresión es una enfermedad muy extendida e insidiosa. Mi libro se refiere también a mi búsqueda de la identidad. Después de dejar el mundo de los negocios para cuidar a mis niños pequeños y abuelos, así también como para adaptarme a una cultura muy diferente a la cual me había educado, me evaporé en mi entorno, ya sin estar segura de quién era yo. ¿Cuál era mi propósito? ¿Qué es lo que quería? Estas preguntas me afectaban y ponían en marcha mi tendencia genética a la depresión. La mayoría de las personas responde a estas preguntas sin tener que pasar por la sala de psiquiatría, pero mi camino estaba lleno de baches; la sala de psiquiatría fue sólo una de las muchas paradas. Cada vez que hablo de mi experiencia, conozco gente que a menudo se encuentra a un paso de la devastación mental o incluso del suicidio. Las historias sobre madres, padres, hermanos, hermanas, esposos y niños hacen que me pregunte: ¿Podríamos haber evitado esas muertes? Si estamos más conscientes, podremos ver las primeras señales de la depresión y salvar una vida? Creo que sí. Con esta convicción, ofrezco mi historia. Las ganancias de las ventas de este libro serán donadas a los programas y la investigación para luchar contra las enfermedades mentales.
Download or read book Teaching Translation from Spanish to English written by Allison Beeby Lonsdale and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many professional translators believe the ability to translate is a gift that one either has or does not have, Allison Beeby Lonsdale questions this view. In her innovative book, Beeby Lonsdale demonstrates how teachers can guide their students by showing them how insights from communication theory, discourse analysis, pragmatics, and semiotics can illuminate the translation process. Using Spanish to English translation as her example, she presents the basic principles of translation through 29 teaching units, which are prefaced by objectives, tasks, and commentaries for the teacher, and through 48 task sheets, which show how to present the material to students. Published in English.

Book excerpt: “It’s a wonderful, splendid book—a book that should be read by every American, student or otherwise, who wants to understand his country, its true history, and its hope for the future.” —Howard Fast, author of Spartacus and The Immigrants “[It] should be required reading.” —Eric Foner, New York Times Book Review Library Journal calls Howard Zinn’s iconic A People's History of the United States “a brilliant and moving history of the American people from the point of view of those…whose plight has been largely omitted from most histories.” Packed with vivid details and telling quotations, Zinn’s award-winning classic continues to revolutionize the way American history is taught and remembered.
