Cosa incarna lo spirito del Natale? È sacrificare la cosa più preziosa che si possiede per le persone che si amano? È ritrovare il calore di casa dopo un inverno senza fine? È accogliere a sé chi rimane nella povertà? O è lasciare da parte ogni egoismo? In un viaggio di storie di Natale di ogni epoca e luogo, undici racconti, scritti da autori senza tempo. Da storie dolci e commoventi e racconti di mistero e redenzione, fino ad arrivare a ironici aneddoti della Vigilia, una raccolta di classici da leggere sotto l’albero, tutto l’anno.

Interjections, Translation, and Translanguaging
Author: Rosanna Masiola
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 1498574653
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
This book is about interjections and their transcultural issues. Challenging the marginalization of the past, the ubiquity of interjections and translational practices are presented in their multilingual and cross-cultural aspects. The survey widens the field of inquiry to a multi-genre and context-based perspective. The quanti-qualitative corpus has been processed on the base of topics of relevance and thematization. The range of examples varies from adaptation of novels into films, from Shakespeare, from Zulu oral epics to opera, from children’s narratives to cartoons, from migration literature to gangster and horror films and their audiovisual translation. The use of American Yiddish, Italian American, South African English, and Jamaican account for the controversial aspects of interjections as a universal phenomenon, and, conversely, as a pragmatic marker of identity in (post)colonial contexts.

The Reception of Charles Dickens in Europe
Author: Michael Hollington
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 1623560764
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 748
Book Description
The Reception of Charles Dickens in Europe offers a full historical survey of Dickens's reception in all the major European countries and many of the smaller ones, filling a major gap in Dickens scholarship, which has by and large neglected Dickens's fortunes in Europe, and his impact on major European authors and movements. Essays by leading international critics and translators give full attention to cultural changes and fashions, such as the decline of Dickens's fortunes at the end of the nineteenth century in the period of Naturalism and Aestheticism, and the subsequent upswing in the period of Modernism, in part as a consequence of the rise of film in the era of Chaplin and Eisenstein. It will also offer accounts of Dickens's reception in periods of political upheaval and revolution such as during the communist era in Eastern Europe or under fascism in Germany and Italy in particular.

Dino Buzzati and Anglo-American Culture
Author: Valentina Polcini
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443860832
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
This book investigates the relationship between Dino Buzzati’s fiction and Anglo-American culture by focusing on his re-use of visual texts (Arthur Rackham’s illustrations), narrative sources (Joseph Conrad’s novels), and topoi belonging to such genres as the seafaring tale, the ghost story and the Christmas story. Tracing Buzzati’s recurring theme of the loss of imagination, Dino Buzzati and Anglo-American Culture shows that, far from being a mere imitator, he carries on an original and conscious reworking of pre-existing literary motifs. Especially through the adoption of intertextual strategies, Buzzati laments the lack of an imaginative urge in contemporary society and attempts a recovery of the fantastic imagery of his models. Alongside a reconsideration of Buzzati’s intertextuality, this book offers new insights into Buzzati’s fantastic fiction, by highlighting its playful and ironic component as opposed to the more overtly pervading sense of gloominess and nostalgia. Furthermore, while filling a gap in the critical study of Buzzati in the English-speaking world, the book contributes towards a general reassessment of an author who, although regarded as minor for many years, can rightly be ranked among the masters of twentieth-century fantastic literature.
