Translation as Stylistic Evolution

Book Description
Why did Italo Calvino decide to translate Les Fleurs bleues by Raymond Queneau? Was his translation just a way to pay a tribute to one of his models? This study looks at Calvino's translation from a literary and linguistic perspective: Calvino's I fiori blu is more than a rewriting and a creative translation, as it contributed to a revolution in his own literary language and style. Translating Queneau, Calvino discovered a new fictional voice and explored the potentialities of his native tongue, Italian. In fact Calvino's writings show a visible evolution of poetics and style that occurred rather abruptly in the mid 1960s; this sudden change has long been debated. The radical transformation of his style was affected by several factors: Calvino's new interests in linguistics, in translation theory, and in the act of translation. Translation as Stylistic Evolution analyses several passages in detail and scrutinizes quantitative data obtained by comparing digital versions of the original and Calvino's translation. The results of such assessment of Calvino's text-consistency suggest clear interpretations of the motives behind Calvino's radical and remarkable change of style that are tied to his notion of creative translation.

Lettre Sur Les Aveugles a L'usage De Ceux Qui Voient
Author: Denis DiderotPublisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781544695938
Category :
Languages : fr
Pages : 34
Book Description
Dans ce texte, Denis Diderot se penche sur la question de la perception visuelle, un sujet renouvel� � l'�poque par le succ�s d'op�rations chirurgicales permettant de donner la vue � certains aveugles de naissance. Les sp�culations sont nombreuses en ce temps-l� sur ce que la vue et l'usage qu'un individu peut en faire doivent � la seule perception, ou bien � l'habitude et l'exp�rience, par exemple pour se rep�rer dans l'espace, identifier des formes, percevoir les distances et les volumes, distinguer un tableau r�aliste de la r�alit�.Diderot explique qu'un aveugle qui se met soudainement � voir ne comprend pas imm�diatement ce qu'il voit, et qu'il mettra du temps � faire le rapport entre son exp�rience des formes et des distances acquises par le toucher, et les images qu'il per�oit avec son oeil.
