Metalanguages for Dissecting Translation Processes
Author: Rei Miyata
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000583473
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
This edited volume covers the development and application of metalanguages for concretely describing and communicating translation processes in practice. In a modern setting of project-based translation, it is crucial to bridge the gaps between various actors involved in the translation process, especially among clients, translation service providers (TSPs), translators, and technology developers. However, we have been confronted with the lack of common understanding among them about the notion and detailed mechanisms of translation. Against this backdrop, we are developing systematic, fine-grained metalanguages that are designed to describe and analyse translation processes in concrete terms. Underpinned by the rich accumulation of theoretical findings in translation studies and established standards of practical translation services, such as ISO 17100, our metalanguages extensively cover the core processes in translation projects, namely project management, source document analysis, translation, and revision. Gathering authors with diverse backgrounds and expertise, this book proffers the fruits of the contributors’ collaborative endeavour; it not only provides practicable metalanguages, but also reports on wide-ranging case studies on the application of metalanguages in practical and pedagogical scenarios. This book supplies concrete guidance for those who are involved in the translation practices and translation training/education. In addition to being of practical use, the metalanguages reflect explication of the translation process. As such, this book provides essential insights for researchers and students in the field of translation studies. The up-to-date versions of the metalanguages, related materials, and the corrigendum for the book content are available on our project website: https://tntc-project.github.io

Yale Required Reading - Collected Works (Vol. 2)
Author: Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 5588
Book Description
Yale Required Reading - Collected Works (Vol. 2) presents a panoramic vista of the literary landscape that shaped the Western intellectual tradition. From the forensic oratory of Cicero to the epic poetry of Virgil, and from the stoic wisdom of Seneca to the biting satires of Juvenal, this anthology traverses the myriad forms and themes that embroidered the fabric of Roman literary and philosophical thought. The collection showcases the diversity within the Roman literary canon, embracing works that range from historical annals and dramatic plays to philosophical treatises and poetic elegies. The inclusion of seminal works such as Horace's Odes, Plautus's Comedies, and Boethius's Consolation of Philosophy, among others, underscores the anthologys dedication to presenting the breadth of human experience and emotion rendered through the unique prisms of its authors. The contributors to this volume are icons of the classical world, each a master in their respective field. Their works collectively span the Golden and Silver Ages of Roman literature, capturing pivotal moments of historical transition and the evolution of Roman culture and society. These authors were not only witnesses to the zenith and decline of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Empire but were also integral voices in the literary, philosophical, and political discourses of their time. Their writings continue to influence modern thought, offering timeless insights into the human condition, governance, morality, and the arts. The backgrounds of these luminaries - senators, soldiers, philosophers, and poets - enrich the anthology by providing a mosaic of perspectives that reflect the complex socio-political fabric of their era. Yale Required Reading - Collected Works (Vol. 2) is an indispensable resource for both scholars and casual readers seeking to immerse themselves in the depth and diversity of classical literature. It offers a unique journey through the intellectual and moral landscapes navigated by the ancients, whose inquiries into virtue, justice, duty, and beauty remain profoundly relevant. This collection not only furnishes readers with a comprehensive understanding of the literary achievements of antiquity but also invites them to engage in an ongoing dialogue with the past, exploring timeless questions through the rich tapestry of classical thought. It is a testament to the enduring power of literature to bridge the past and present, providing insight, inspiration, and a deeper understanding of the human spirit.
