Abstract

From a metrolingual point of view—with its focus on language, space and the city—translation happens at many social interfaces and in various translation zones. In this chapter, we explore processes of resemiotization, in which meaning is reconfigured across not only linguistic boundaries but also wider semiotic and artefactual spaces. Resemiotization as a form of translation occurs between various semiotic modalities, such as spoken and written text versions, or between designs and their instantiation. Within this perspective, interartefactual translation, which we propose in this chapter, refers to the processes by which artefacts change their meanings in relation to other objects within semiotic assemblages in which human and language play mediating roles. By examining data from a small store in Tokyo and discussing interartefactual translation from a metrolingual perspective, we show how meaning is reworked across assemblages of people, objects, spaces and languages. We argue that thinking of translation in these interartefactual terms opens up a space for study beyond languages and people in interaction towards an entangled world of people, languages, things and places.
Interartefactual英文
从都市语言的角度来看,它关注语言、空间和城市,翻译发生在许多社会界面和不同的翻译区域。在本章中,我们探讨了相似化的过程,在这个过程中,意义不仅跨越语言边界,而且跨越更广泛的符号学和人工空间。相似化作为一种翻译形式发生在各种符号形式之间,例如口头和书面文本版本,或者在设计和它们的实例之间。从这个角度来看,我们在本章中提出的人工制品间翻译是指在人类和语言扮演中介角色的符号学组合中,人工制品改变其与其他物体相关的意义的过程。通过研究东京一家小商店的数据,并从都市语言的角度讨论人工间翻译,我们展示了意义是如何在人、物体、空间和语言的组合中被重新加工的。我们认为,在这些相互作用的术语中思考翻译,开辟了一个超越语言和人的互动的研究空间,走向一个由人、语言、事物和地点纠缠在一起的世界。
