Book Avenues of Translation

Download or read book Avenues of Translation written by Regina Galasso and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2019-04-15 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2020 SAMLA Studies Book Award — Edited Collection Cities both near and far communicate in a variety of ways. Travel between, through, and among urban centers initiates contact, and cities themselves are sites of ever-changing cultural and historical encounters. Predictable and surprising challenges and opportunities arise when city borders are crossed, voices meet, and artistic traditions find their counterparts. Using the Latin word for “translation,” translatio, or “to carry across,” as a point of departure, Avenues of Translation explores how translation perpetuates, diversifies, deepens, and expands the literary production of cities in their greater cultural context, and how translation shapes an understanding of and access to a city's past and present literary and cultural practices. Thinking about translation and the city is a way to tell the backstories of the cities, texts, and authors that are united by acts of translation. Published by Bucknell University Press. Distributed worldwide by Rutgers University Press.

Book Nocturnes

    Book Details:
  • Author : John Connolly
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2006-10-10
  • ISBN : 1416534601
  • Pages : 497 pages

Download or read book Nocturnes written by John Connolly and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2006-10-10 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bestselling author John Connolly's first collection of short fiction,Nocturnes,now features five additional stories -- never-before published for an American audience -- in a dark, daring, utterly haunting anthology of lost lovers and missing children, predatory demons, and vengeful ghosts. In "The New Daughter," a father comes to suspect that a burial mound on his land hides something very ancient, and very much alive; in "The Underbury Witches," two London detectives find themselves battling a particularly female evil in a town culled of its menfolk. And finally, private detective Charlie Parker returns in the long novella "The Reflecting Eye," in which the photograph of an unknown girl turns up in the mailbox of an abandoned house once occupied by an infamous killer. This discovery forces Parker to confront the possibility that the house is not as empty as it appears, and that something has been waiting in the darkness for its chance to kill again.

Book Kalpa Imperial

    Book Details:
  • Author : Angélica Gorodischer
  • Publisher : Small Beer Press
  • Release : 2013-10-22
  • ISBN : 1618730193
  • Pages : 266 pages

Download or read book Kalpa Imperial written by Angélica Gorodischer and published by Small Beer Press. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ursula K. Le Guin chose to translate this novel which was on the New York Times Summer Reading list and winner of the Prix Imaginales, Más Allá, Poblet and Sigfrido Radaelli awards. This is the first of Argentinean writer Angélica Gorodischer's award-winning books to be translated into English. In eleven chapters, Kalpa Imperial's multiple storytellers relate the story of a fabled nameless empire which has risen and fallen innumerable times. Fairy tales, oral histories and political commentaries are all woven tapestry-style into Kalpa Imperial: beggars become emperors, democracies become dictatorships, and history becomes legends and stories. But this is much more than a simple political allegory or fable. It is also a celebration of the power of storytelling. Gorodischer and translator Ursula K. Le Guin are a well-matched, sly and delightful team of magician-storytellers. Rarely have author and translator been such an effortless pairing. Kalpa Imperial is a powerful introduction to the writing of Angélica Gorodischer, a novel which will enthrall readers already familiar with the worlds of Le Guin.

Book La Est  tica de la transgresi  n

    Book Details:
  • Author : Antonio Ballesteros González
  • Publisher : Univ de Castilla La Mancha
  • Release : 2000
  • ISBN : 9788484270263
  • Pages : 516 pages

Download or read book La Est tica de la transgresi n written by Antonio Ballesteros González and published by Univ de Castilla La Mancha. This book was released on 2000 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los artículos que componen el presente volumen, fruto de las Jornadas Internacionales del mismo título, se centran en el estudio y discusión de algunas de las formas teatrales que podrían ubicarse bajo el polisémico epígrafe de teatro de vanguardia, y suponen un acercamiento crítico a la complejidad de las vertientes dramáticas contemporáneas. El libro se estructura en diferentes apartados, que van desde las reflexiones teóricas de índole global o general, o acerca de la coexistencia de lo teatral con otras facetas artísticas, para pasar a incidir más adelante sobre la escena vanguardista en diferentes ámbitos, principalmente en los países de lengua española, francesa e inglesa. En definitiva, la obra viene a demostrar la riqueza y la versatilidad referencial que la experimentación de las vanguardias ha insuflado al Arte de Talía en el siglo XX, manifestando así que el teatro es un fenómeno vivo y dinámico, y por lo tanto, proteico. Que se alce, pues, el telón, para dejar paso a las disquisiciones teatrales que aquí se contienen, con la certeza shakespeareana de que el mundo es un escenario.

Book Power and Pilgrimage

Download or read book Power and Pilgrimage written by Sanne Derks and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2009 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power and Pilgrimage is an in-depth anthropological study of life at a Bolivian pilgrimage site. It focuses on the experiences of pilgrims and how, in their Marian devotion, they express and learn to live with the various inequalities they experience in everyday life. Issues of poverty and class inequality lead them to approach the Virgin of Urkupina to support them in their quest for economic betterment. Another social inequality that comes to the fore is based on gender: in particular Bolivian women seek Mary's support to deal with violence and oppression in their homes. Finally, ethnic inequalities are discussed by analysing the dance processions in honour of the Virgin, since these reflect contested ethnic identities.
