Wave Of Translation (Feat. Phil Paton & Jackie Sampson) John Lake - CD 190394348786

The action takes place in late August 1833 at a hedge-school in the townland of Baile Beag, an Irish-speaking community in County Donegal. In a nearby field camps a recently arrived detachment of the Royal Engineers, making the first Ordnance Survey. For the purposes of cartography, the local Gaelic place names have to be recorded and rendered into English. In examining the effects of this operation on the lives of a small group, Brian Friel skillfully reveals the far-reaching personal and cultural effects of an action which is at first sight purely administrative.

This varied collection of essays represents the differing strands of work currently being undertaken in the exciting new field of Translation Studies and reflects a shift of emphasis away from a more descriptive form of translation towards the idea that translation occupies a seminal position in the devlopment of culture. Susan Bassnett is Director of the Centre for British Comparative Cultural Studies at the University of Warwick. Andre Lefevere is Professor of Germanic Philology at the University of Texas at Austin.

William Wordsworth's two most extensive translation projects were his modernization of selected poems by Chaucer and his unfinished translation of Virgil's Aeneid. Bruce E. Graver offers the texts, a complete account of their genesis and publication, a discussion of Wordsworth's practice as a translator.

During the latter half of this century, particular attention has been paid to translating. The progress and change of perspective in this field of knowledge have been spectacular, moving from a scientific and prescriptive vision of translation to a descriptive one, which, in turn, has given way to the interaction between translation and culture. The starting point of this book is the idea that language is not neutral and that, insofar as language is the translator's tool, the act of translating is not neutral either. Translation shapes the way in which a given society receives a work, an author, a literature, or a culture; therefore it is necessary to locate the subversive aspects of translations in the larger framework of social interaction. Translating can never be neutral, as it is charged with ideology and 'games of power'. The most attractive feature of this anthology is that in the essays we can see how norms vary from one culture to another, how a 'strong' society may wish to alter those of a 'weaker' one through translation, or how the canon can be modified. Translation as a political or manipulative action will be much less dangerous if we are aware of its consequences. This book will help us to reflect on this problem.

Excerpt from A Translation of the Anglo-Saxon Poem of Beowulf: With a Copious Glossary Preface and Philological NotesWith the mythic history of the North, I cannot suffer the erroneous views developed in my preface to continue as my recorded opinion, uncorrected, and unrefuted: it is due not only to myself, but to those who interest themselves with the antiquities of our native land, to cut away, root and branch, whatever is false in what I have published, and to add what upon maturer consideration seems likely to throw light upon the obscure and dificult subject with which we have to deal.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Translation/History/Culture is a collection of the most important statements on the translation of literature from Roman times to the 1920s. Arranged thematically around the main topics which recur over the centuries--power, poetics, language, education--it contains many texts previously unavailable in English.As the first survey of its kind in both scope and selection, Translation/History/Culture argues that translation commands a central position in the shaping of European literature and cultures. It re-establishes in the reader's mind the unbroken continuity of the tradition of translation and reveals the topicality of many of the texts included. Serving as both a textbook of translation history and as a starting point for further discussion about translation, it is a valuable addition to the shelves of literary historians, theorists of literature, students and teachers of comparative literature and cultural studies, and scholars of translation.

A New Translation of the Nichomachean Ethics of Aristotle

Author Evan Maina Mwangi explores the intersection of translation, sexuality, and cosmopolitan ethics in African literature. Usually seen as the preserve of literature published by Euro-American metropolitan outlets for Western consumption, cultural translation is also a recurrent theme in postcolonial African texts produced primarily for local circulation and sometimes in African languages. Mwangi illustrates how such texts allude to various forms of translation to depict the ethical relations to foreigners and the powerless, including sexual minorities. He also explains the popularity of fluent models of translation in African literature, regardless of the energetic critique of such models by Western-based postcolonial theorists.While bringing to the foreground texts that have received little critical attention in African literary studies, Translation in African Contexts engages a wide range of foundational and postcolonial translation theorists. It considers a rich variety of works, including East African translations of Shakespeare, writings by Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o and Gakaara wa Wanjaũ, a popular novel by Charles Mangua, and a stage adaptation by the Tanzanian playwright Amandina Lihamba, among others.

The status of a text depends entirely upon its instrinsic merits. Or does it? "Translation, Rewriting and the Manipulation of Literary Fame" argues that rewriting, in its various forms - translation, anthologization, historiography, criticism - is as least as important in establishing the reception and reputation of a work as the actual text itself. Lefevere explores how rewriting manipulates works of literature to ideological and artistic ends. By placing the production of a literature in a new culture or theoretical framework, a rewritten text can be given a new, sometimes subversive, historical or literary status. Lefevere challenges the sacred cows of literature such as "originality", "inspiration" and "aesthetic excellence" by revaluing literature's social and historical import in a post-Marxist context.
