With a view to improving the teaching of this mode of interpreting, the long‐term objective of the investigation is to identify good strategies within the field. Didactic and methodological reflections are discussed in connection with the layout of the project. The underlying premises and hypotheses of the study are presented and the empirical data are described. These data consist of renditions in English and Danish produced by interpreter and translator informants at various levels of competence. One important hypothesis of the study is that elements recognized as prerequisites for a good translation are essentially the same as those needed for a good simultaneous interpreting performance. The mastery of the progressive aspect in English and Danish is chosen as the indicator of the communicative adequacy of the target texts because the rendition of this phenomenon can have semantic as well...","PeriodicalId":398879,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives-studies in Translatology","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128063450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article analyses news subtitles from the theoretical perspective of equivalence of effect, as defined by Eugene Nida and further developed by Gideon Toury. Subtitled news reports from Northern Ireland broadcast on Danish state television during 1996 are analysed with respect to the degree of dynamic equivalence attained. Problematic areas are grouped under three headings: frames, the religious model, and terminological problems. It is argued that the presentation of a subtitled news item ‐ its ‘frame’ ‐ can change the way that the subtitles are understood, to such an extent that the frame itself can be considered to be a part of the translation. It is further argued that the religious explanatory model adopted with regard to the Northern Ireland conflict by Danish television news has made dynamic equivalence difficult to attain in subtitled reports. Finally, the problem of translating terms possessing specific ...","PeriodicalId":398879,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives-studies in Translatology","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128232911","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The points of departure are the categories of poetic translation listed by Andre Lefevere. The idea that poets are the best translators of poetry, is discussed by referrint to a series of poet translators (T. S. Eliot, Andre Gide) to Tagore. The article presents Tagore's explicit views on translation and then documents in detail in the way in which Tagore, who insisted that his poetry should be read in the original Bengali, transcreated his poetry or gave poems new incarnations in English. Against this background, the author concludes that this genetic approach should be added to the list of strategies for poetry translation.","PeriodicalId":398879,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives-studies in Translatology","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128864406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our primary objective here is to specify the place of literal meaning in our performative model of translation, in order to make for a better understanding of the relation between literal meaning and translation which the perspective offers. In the present article, we shall first show the status of meaning in translation, thereby demonstrating that meaning is not the goal of all translation, as traditional wisdom would have us believe. Second, we shall outline the performative theory of meaning in general as the essential basis for understanding what literal meaning is in our trans‐translatological framework. Third, we examine different meanings generally designated by the expression ‘literal meaning’. Fourth, we suggest a well defined usage of the term ‘literal meaning’ which should be adopted in translation studies and practice.

To remedy this situation, teachers should be process‐oriented in translation teaching and so should students in learning to translate. Students’ internalization of theories from class and eventual development of a unified theory of their own are crucial to the success of translation teaching and the growth of student translators. It is further contended that such process‐orientedness in teaching and learning is critical to the development of Translation Studies as an independent discipline. Reflective journal writing, an activity which is similar to diary keeping but stresses the writer's reflection on the experience apart from recording what happens during a period of time, is then detailed as a strategy to help students internalize in‐class theories and develop their own theory of tra...","PeriodicalId":398879,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives-studies in Translatology","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130320909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, I propose a reading of ‘The Task of the Translator’ that aims at pinpointing the four “universes of discourse” Benjamin weaves into his argumentation ‐ a poetics of modernism, an onto‐theological metaphysics, a philosophy of language and a theory of translation ‐ in order to grasp the significance of his crucial concept of “pure language”. Following hints taken from Derrida, Andrew Benjamin and Eve Tavor Bannet, I shall argue that pure language should be interpreted in the form of a non‐essentialist conception of meaning as intertranslation, which provides the basis for a new politics and epistemology of language.","PeriodicalId":398879,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives-studies in Translatology","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130456010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
