UNA FIDANZATA SU MISURA
Author: Carla Tommasone
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1291862897
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 604
Book Description
Che c'è di più importante che costruirsi un impero, investendo le proprie energie? Pazienza se poi la vitalità investita nel perseguimento del proprio obiettivo, lascerà un nullo margine per altre risorse e l'aridità più completa governerà la vita di Stefano. Tuttavia la madre non ci sta. La donna, la cui vita si è evoluta nell'amore, non può permettere che il suo unico, amato figlio, rinunci a ciò che di essenziale per la propria completezza esiste a questo mondo; l'amore. E quando porrà il suo incontestabile ultimatum, Stefano dovrà decidere se assecondare la sua iniziativa o interrompere ogni contatto con lei, privandosi dell'unica forma d'amore a lui conosciuta. La scelta sarà ardua, l'inevitabile resa, difficile da accettare, e Stefano opporrà la propria ferrea ostinazione per non essere trascinato nel vortice, fino allo scontato epilogo. Un romanzo frizzante come pregiato champagne, energico e divertente, che cattura il lettore con la disinvolta, moderna appagante e godevole, orditura descrittiva.

Simplification, Explicitation and Normalization
Author: Margherita Ippolito
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443867365
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 135
Book Description
The search for general laws and regularities in Translation Studies gained new momentum in the 1990s when Baker (1993) promoted the use of large electronic corpora as research tools for exploring the linguistic features that render the language of translation different from the language of non-translated texts. By comparing a corpus of translated and non-translated English texts, Baker and her research team put forward the hypothesis that translated texts are characterized by some “universal features”, namely simplification, explicitation, normalization and levelling-out. The purpose of this study is to test whether simplification, explicitation and normalization apply to Italian translations of children’s books. In order to achieve this aim, a comparable corpus of translated and non-translated works of classic fiction for children has been collected and analysed using Corpus Linguistics tools and methodologies. The results show that, in the translational subcorpus, simplification, explicitation and normalization processes do not prevail over the non-translational one. Therefore, it is suggested that the status of translated children’s literature in the Italian literary “polysystem” (Even-Zohar, 1979, 1990) and, from a general viewpoint, all the cultural, historical and social conditions that influence translators’ activities, determine translation choices that can also tend towards processes different from those proposed by Baker.
