Cultural Encounters in Translated Children's Literature
Cultural Encounters in Translated Children's Literature offers a detailed and innovative model of analysis for examining the complexities of translating children's literature and sheds light on the interpretive choices at work in moving texts from one culture to another. The core of the study addresses the issue of how images of a nation, locale or country are constructed in translated children's literature, with the translation of Australian children's fiction into French serving as a case study. Issues examined include the selection of books for translation, the relationship between children's books and the national and international publishing industry, the packaging of translations and the importance of titles, blurbs and covers, the linguistic and stylistic features specific to translating for children, intertextual references, the function of the translation in the target culture, didactic and pedagogical aims, euphemistic language and explicitation, and literariness in translated texts.The findings of the case study suggest that the most common constructs of Australia in French translations reveal a preponderance of traditional Eurocentric signifiers that identify Australia with the outback, the antipodes, the exotic, the wild, the unknown, the void, the end of the world, the young and innocent nation, and the Far West. Contemporary signifiers that construct Australia as urban, multicultural, Aboriginal, worldly and inharmonious are seriously under-represented. The study also shows that French translations are conventional, conservative and didactic, showing preference for an exotic rather than local specificity, with systematic manipulation of Australian referents betraying a perception of Australia as antipodean rural exoticism.The significance of the study lies in underscoring the manner in which a given culture is constructed in another cultural milieu, especially through translated children's literature.
Zur Sprachlichen Entwicklung Der Deutschen Minderheit in Rußland Und in Der Sowjetunion
In den letzten Jahren sind Tausende von Deutschen aus der Sowjetunion in die Bundesrepublik gekommen. Wer sind diese Menschen - -die Deutschstammigen-, -die Russen mit deutschen Vorfahren-, -die deutschen Russen-, -die Aussiedler-? Wann beginnt ihre Geschichte? Welche Grunde bewegten die Deutschen zur Auswanderung ins unbekannte russische Reich? Wie ist es moglich, trotz starken Assimilationsdrucks die deutsche Sprache und Kultur im fremden Land so lange zu bewahren? In der vorliegenden Untersuchung wurde das Ziel verfolgt, die sprachliche Entwicklung am historisch-soziologischen Werdegang der Russlanddeutschen chronologisch darzustellen. Die Verfasserin - selbst eine in der Sowjetunion geborene Deutsche - beschreibt die Problematik aus eigener Erfahrung anhand historischer Quellen und wissenschaftlicher Literatur."
Goodbye Tarzan (RLE Feminist Theory)
What do men feel about the women’s movement? How has it changed them, if at all? To try and answer these questions Helen Franks talked to many men and drew upon research in Britain, the US and Australia. She interviewed men from all social groups – business executives, writers, factory workers, shopkeepers – and all ages, from fifteen to fifty-nine. They included divorced men, husbands, gay men, and some who had ‘swapped roles’ with the women in their lives.She found some surprising results. All men, whatever their attitude to women, seem to be affected, not to say threatened, by feminism. In these pages she documents the thoughts – often confused – of very different kinds of men on sharing housework; women as colleagues; sexual behaviour; pornography; gayness; friendship with other men; fatherhood and marriage.Helen Franks is a sympathetic listener. A committed feminist, she pulls no punches in her criticisms of traditional male attitudes. But she believes that the problems men find in responding constructively to feminism are considerable. After all, men have no broad-based ‘men’s movement’ to sustain them. And she argues that patriarchal society oppresses men, just as, though in a different way, it does women.The feminist classics of the 1960s and 1970s changed women’s lives by revealing a world of shared experiences and unfulfilled potential. The time has come to do the same for men.

“An elegantly written, introductory overview of the field, with a near perfect choice of what to include and what not, enlivened in places by historical tidbits and made eminently readable throughout by crisp language. It has succeeded in doing the near-impossible—it has made a subject which is generally inhospitable to nonspecialists because of its ‘family jargon’ appear nonintimidating even to a beginning graduate student.” (The Journal of the Indian Institute of Science) “The book under review gives a comprehensive treatment of basically everything in mathematics that can be named multivalued/set-valued analysis. It includes…results with many historical comments giving the reader a sound perspective to look at the subject…The book is highly recommended for mathematicians and graduate students who will find here a very comprehensive treatment of set-valued analysis.” (Mathematical Reviews) “This book provides a thorough introduction to multivalued or set-valued analysis...Examples in many branches of mathematics, given in the introduction, prevail [upon] the reader the indispensability [of dealing] with sequences of sets and set-valued maps…The style is lively and vigorous, the relevant historical comments and suggestive overviews increase the interest for this work...Graduate students and mathematicians of every persuasion will welcome this unparalleled guide to set-valued analysis.” (Zentralblatt Math)

Helen and Frank: Getting Old and Finding Love with Food, Wine, Theater, Music, Crime and COVID, by Thomas Morgan. In a St. Louis memory care center, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and a world reeling under lockdown, two unlikely people - Helen and Frank - run afoul of each other. And somehow, despite their faults and bad intentions, almost inexplicably ... they fall in love. "The viral infection we know as COVID-19 has been the defining event of 2020, perhaps the defining event of our lifetimes." - Thomas Morgan Hyers, M.D.Frank Palermo in this story lived in a memory support complex in 2020. From March to September of 2020, Frank basically was confined to his apartment. His food was brought to him, and his trash was hauled away. He was lucky in that he could still drive his car, but where could he go? Restaurants, theaters, concerts and other entertainment venues were unavailable to him. He was prohibited from group meals and other forms of socialization with residents in his complex. Frank had the internet as his primary form of communication and education. It was the way he experienced the world for almost six months. His confinement made Frank a stronger person, but to many older people the enforced isolation became unbearable. Helen, a penniless widow, moved into Frank's complex in September and changed his life. The story of Helen and Frank aims to put a human face on the extraordinary year of 2020.

Originally published in 1960. Felix Frankfurter, a controversial figure in American judicial history, completed more than twenty-one years of service on the Supreme Court. This book is the first extended treatment of his political performance as a justice. It portrays the influence that he, both as teacher and jurist, exerted in the growth of public law over fifty years. He has exerted his influence not only through his writing but also through his personal acquaintance with many important persons in and out of government service. Beyond examining the career of one man, Thomas opens up a wider window on the history of legal thought. The main value of the book, though, lies in its presentation of the philosophy of one leading twentieth-century educator and jurist.
Die Erziehung Des Edelfräuleins Im Alten Frankreich: Nach Dichtungen Des XII., XIII. Und XIV. Jahrhunderts
The book series Beihefte zur Zeitschrift f r romanische Philologie, founded by Gustav Gr ber in 1905, is among the most renowned publications in Romance Studies. It covers the entire field of Romance linguistics, including the national languages as well as the lesser studied Romance languages. The editors welcome submissions of high-quality monographs and collected volumes on all areas of linguistic research, on medieval literature and on textual criticism. The publication languages of the series are French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Romanian as well as German and English. Each collected volume should be as uniform as possible in its contents and in the choice of languages.
Europaeischer Minderheitenschutz Am Nationalen Beispiel Der Regionalsprachen in Frankreich
Warum mussen Minderheiten geschutzt und gefoerdert werden? Welche Minderheiten in Europa gibt es? Weshalb bedarf es wirksamer Minderheitenschutzsysteme auf verschiedenen Akteursebenen? Unter welchen Voraussetzungen koennen Minderheiten wirksam geschutzt werden? Diesen und weiteren Fragen geht die Autorin in ihren kulturpolitischen Forschungen nach. Mittels der Analyse einschlagiger Dokumente untersucht sie den Schutz der nationalen Minderheiten durch den Europarat, die KSZE/OSZE und die Europaische Union, wie insbesondere auch den Schutz und die Foerderung der sprachlichen Minderheiten, namentlich der Regionalsprachen, auf nationaler Akteursebene in Frankreich.
Staatlichkeit Und Souveraenitaet in Der Europaeischen Union Am Beispiel Frankreichs
Die Dissertation von Helene Lepoivre betrachtet die aktiven Aspekte von Staatlichkeit und Souveranitat aus franzoesischer Sicht und setzt sich mit dem klassischen Begriff des "Etat-nation" auseinander. Ferner fuhrt die Autorin eine Analyse der Funktion der Souveranitat beziehungsweise des Prinzips der nationalen Souveranitat aus. Im Hinblick auf die Europaische Union befindet sich die nationale Souveranitat Frankreichs unter dem Dach Europas. Um seine Funktionen noch erfullen zu koennen, muss sie als teilbar konzipiert werden.
