The Dark Side of Translation
Author: Federico Italiano
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000028283
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
We tend to consider translation as something good, virtuous and bright, but it can also function as an instrument of concealment, silencing and misdirection—as something that darkens and obscures. Propaganda, misinformation, narratives of trauma and imagery of the enemy—to mention just a few of the negative phenomena that shape our lives—show patterns of communication in which translation either functions as a weapon or constitutes a space of conflict. But what does this dark side of translation look like? How does it work? Ground-breaking in its theoretical conception and pioneering in its thematic approach, this book unites international scholars from a range of disciplines including philosophy, translation studies, literary theory, ecocriticism, game studies, history and political science. With examples that illustrate complex theoretical and philosophical issues, this book also has a major focus on the translational dimension of ecology and climate change. Transdisciplinary and topical, this book is key reading for researchers, scholars and advanced students of translation studies, literature and related areas. Chapter 8 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/e/9780429321528

The Globotics Upheaval
Author: Richard Baldwin
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190901780
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
At the root of inequality, unemployment, and populism are radical changes in the world economy. Digital technology is allowing talented foreigners to telecommute into our workplaces and compete for service and professional jobs. Instant machine translation is melting language barriers, so the ranks of these "tele-migrants" will soon include almost every educated person in the world. Computing power is dissolving humans' monopoly on thinking, enabling AI-trained computers to compete for many of the same white-collar jobs. The combination of globalization and robotics is creating the globotics upheaval, and it threatens the very foundations of the liberal welfare-state. Richard Baldwin, one of the world's leading globalization experts, argues that the inhuman speed of this transformation threatens to overwhelm our capacity to adapt. From computers in the office to automatic ordering systems in restaurants, we are familiar with the how digital technologies offer convenience while also eliminating jobs. Globotics will disrupt the lives of millions of white-collar workers much faster than automation, industrialization, and globalization disrupted the lives of factory workers in previous centuries. The result will be a backlash. Professional, white-collar, and service workers will agitate for a slowing of the unprecedented pace of disruption, as factory workers have done in years past. Baldwin argues that the globotics upheaval will be countered in the short run by "shelter-ism" - government policies that shelter some service jobs from tele-migrants and thinking computers. In the long run, people will work in more human jobs-activities that require real people to use the uniquely human ability of independent thought-and this will strengthen bonds in local communities. Offering effective strategies such as focusing on the social value of work, The Globotics Upheaval will help people prepare for the oncoming wave of an advanced robotic workforce.

Corporate Political Responsibility
Author: Johannes Bohnen
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3662621223
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
This book demonstrates how companies can effectively promote their business by assuming political responsibility and expanding their investment concept to include a political component. It shows that the success of companies is crucially dependent on socio-political conditions. In other words: politically sustainable management is a business case. Therefore companies should take a closer look at the opportunities at the interface of politics and business. To date, there has not been a satisfactory assessment of the issue of Corporate Political Responsibility (CPR), which combines a conceptual framework with practical measures for implementation. This book remedies that oversight, and shows how companies can develop the necessary attitude and operate in concrete CPR fields of action, illustrated by diagrams and examples. While doing so, the author explains how CPR is different from shere lobbying or Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The author provides an overview of the public realm and its actors, and shows how, through political contributions, they can strengthen the performance of the state and thus their own performance. Companies have unique resources for doing so, and in their own interest they should get involved: being impartial in particular, but partial in principle - when it comes to our liberal way of life as such.

Discourse Particles
Author: Xabier Artiagoitia
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027257760
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
Discourse particles have often been treated as a phenomenon restricted to Germanic languages (Abraham 2020) and they still raise questions about their nature as an independent category. This book reveals that this phenomenon exists in other languages as well, and provides evidence for their nature as a separate category. The volume brings together a collection of nine papers that focus on three research topics: a) the diachronic development of discourse particles; b) their syntactic analysis; and c) the study of their semantic-pragmatics. Furthermore, it also discusses other issues less often dealt with in the literature but of great interest for linguistic theory, such as the acquisition of discourse particles by children or the analysis of elements not usually considered discourse particles but whose historical path or microvariation indicates otherwise. Additionally, the book offers a cross-linguistic perspective as it discusses various languages including Basque, Catalan, German, Italian, Laz, Mandarin Chinese, Old English, Portuguese, and Spanish.

The Neuroscience of Bach's Music
Author: Eric Altschuler
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0443135207
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
The Neuroscience of Bach's Music: Perception, Action, and Cognition Effects on the Brain is a comprehensive study of Johann Sebastian Bach's music through the lens of neuroscience and examining neuroscience using Bach's music as a tool. This book synthesizes cognitive neuroscience, music theory, and musicology to provide insights into human cognition and perception. It also explores how a neuroscience perspective can improve listening and performing experiences for Bach's music. Written by a physician-neuroscientist recognized for scholarly articles on Bach's music, this book uses specific examples to explore neuroscience across Bach's compositions. The book is structured to discuss the brain's action, perception, and cognition as connected to specific Bach concertos, tones, notes, and performances. Two guest contributors provide insight into exact mathematical, or topologic, and music theoretic aspects of Bach's music with implications for cognitive neuroscience. The Neuroscience of Bach's Music: Perception, Action, and Cognition Effects on the Brain is a vital source for neuroscientists, especially those studying the cognitive effects of music, as well as musicians and students alike. - Links specific features and unique characteristics of Bach's music to perceptual and cognitive neuroscience processes - Requires only an interest in music or basic music training - Accompanied by a companion website with music examples mentioned in the book

Stories of Traumatic Pasts
Author: Marina Gržinić
Publisher: Hatje Cantz Verlag
ISBN: 3775748849
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 105
Book Description
Belgischer Kolonialismus im Kongo, Antisemitismus in Österreich, Turbo-Nationalismus im ehemaligen Jugoslawien – diese drei historischen Stränge von Gewalt und Vernichtung erzwangen und stützten einen Prozess des Vergessens, der bis heute eine Aufarbeitung der durch sie verursachten Genozide verhindert. Heute droht eine unfreiwillige oder ausgeübte Amnesie all das zu zerstören, was bereits in Hinblick auf ein mögliches Zusammenleben erreicht wurde. Der Ausstellungskatalog geht zu diesen traumatischen Ereignissen der Geschichte sowie der jüngsten Vergangenheit mit ihrer zerstörerischen Wirkung auf Gemeinschaften und Völker, Staaten und Territorien zurück und stellen sie einem System von Interventionen gegenüber. Die nach Gräueltaten zurückbleibenden Narben sind zwar oft versteckt und ausgelöscht, lassen sich aber durch künstlerische, wissenschaftliche und politische Reflexionen zurückholen.
