Within Translation studies and pedagogy, Jeremy Lawrance analyses sixteenth-century translation's contribution to the prestige of vernacular languages; Philip Deacon evaluates theItalian translation of Moratín's El viejo y la niña; Robin Warner explores the translation of cartoon humour; Patricia Odber contrasts ten translations of a poem by Gil Vicente; and Anthony Trippett and Paul Jordan reflecton the purpose and practices of higher education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Quién es tan enemigo de Roma como para no defender el altar de la diosa Victoria? Verano de 384. El Imperio Romano está dividido. Teodosio gobierna oriente desde Constantinopla. El pequeño Valentiniano II reside en Milán y, asistido por su madre Justina y vigilado por el obispo Ambrosio, administra los territorios centrales. Mientras, el usurpador Máximo, cuyos dominios se extienden por occidente, tiene su sede en Tréveris. Los hunos amenazan las fronteras de l Imperio. La nación goda, tras varias revueltas, se somete a los tratados para establecerse como aliada en las provincias de Mesia y Tracia. El cristianismo goza del respaldo de los emperadores, pero entre sus seguidores existen importantes desavenencias y conflictos. En Roma, un grupo de senadores, encabezados por el prefecto Simmaco, urde un plan para conseguir que el joven Valentiniano devuelva las ayudas económicas a los cultos paganos y restituya la estatua de la diosa Victoria al lugar donde siempre estuvo, el edificio de la Curia. Mientras tanto, en un lugar de Italia, unos monjes destruyen un santuario dedicado a la diosa Diana.

Book People of the Iberian Borderlands

Download or read book People of the Iberian Borderlands written by David Martín Marcos and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-09-02 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is devoted to the inhabitants of the Spanish–Portuguese borderlands during the early modern period. It seeks to challenge a predominant historiography focused on the study of borderlands societies, relying exclusively on the antagonistic topics of subversion and the construction of boundaries. It states that by focusing just on one concept or another there is a restrictive understanding tending to condition the agency of local communities by external narratives. Thus, if traditionally border people were reduced by some scholars to actors of a struggle against a supposedly imposed border; in a more modern perspective, their behaviors have been also framed in bottom-up processes of consolidation of spaces of sovereignty in a no less limiting vision. Faced with both approaches, the objective of this work is not to deny them but, first and foremost, to situate the experiences of border populations outside of logics that I understand as originally alien to themselves, and to highlight their own subjectivity. Finally, it also demonstrates that most of the practices developed by border people were fundamentally aimed at defending their local communities. It will be useful for both audiences interested in early modern Iberia or border studies from a bottom-up perspective.
