Offers a feminist theory of translation that considers both the practice and representation of translation in works penned by early modern women. This book argues for the importance of such a theory in changing how we value women's work.
Women as Translators in Early Modern England offers a feminist theory of translation that considers both the practice and representation of translation in works penned by early modern women. It argues for the importance of such a theory in changing how we value women's work. Because of England's formal split from the Catholic Church and the concomitant elevation of the written vernacular, the early modern period presents a rich case study for such a theory. This era witnessed not only a keen interest in reviving the literary glories of the past, but also a growing commitment to humanist education, increasing literacy rates among women and laypeople, and emerging articulations of national sentiment. Moreover, the period saw a shift in views of authorship, in what it might mean for individuals to seek fame or profit through writing. Until relatively recently in early modern scholarship, women were understood as excluded from achieving authorial status for a number of reasons--their limited education, the belief that public writing was particularly scandalous for women, and the implicit rule that they should adhere to the holy trinity of "chastity, silence, and obedience." While this view has changed significantly, women writers are still understood, however grudgingly, as marginal to the literary culture of the time. Fewer women than men wrote, they wrote less, and their "choice" of genres seems somewhat impoverished; add to this the debate over translation as a potential vehicle of literary expression and we can see why early modern women's writings are still undervalued. This book looks at how female translators represent themselves and their work, revealing a general pattern in which translation reflects the limitations women faced as writers while simultaneously giving them the opportunity to transcend these limitations. Indeed, translation gave women the chance to assume an authorial role, a role that by legal and cultural standards should have been denied to them, a role that gave them ownership of their words and the chance to achieve profit, fame, status and influence.

On the death of Dan Urman in 2004, his colleagues set about completing his unfinished manuscripts, including this volume: Rafid on the Golan (its ruins remain in a demilitarized zone controlled by United Nations forces), one of Dan Urman's last archaeological projects. He succeeded in completing the chapters detailing the survey of the houses in the village, carried out during the years 1968-1970. The houses were measured, photographed, and an overall map was drawn, which included all houses, alleys, footpaths, public areas and water reservoirs. The survey team realized that Rafid was an unusual archaeological resource that preserved scores of ancient buildings still standing from foundation to the rafters, constructed of basalt. Dan Urman saw in the survey of Rafid and in the scientific material collected within its framework the highest achievement of the Golan survey: the intact buildings built of decorated basalt could, in his opinion, serve as a model of the building style prevalent in the Roman and Byzantine periods - not only on the Golan, but also on the Korazim and Issachar plateaus. Because of the long time that elapsed between the survey and the preparation of the material for publication, it was necessary to find a Golan expert, who would complete lacunae in the manuscript and present with the rich archaeological material from Rafid also the general background and new research on the Golan and the region bordering on it. Dr. Moshe Hartal from Israel Antiquities Authority, who worked in the original survey team with Dan Urman agreed to work on the manuscript and added the following chapters: The geographical setting, the architectural decorations, the Hauran-style architecture and a synthesis of the history of Rafid in the various historical periods.Written by Dan Urman and edited by Shimon Dar, Moshe Martal and Etan Ayalon

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Geschichte Europa - and. L nder - Mittelalter, Fr he Neuzeit, Note: 1,3, FernUniversit t Hagen, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Einleitung Es war die Gr ndung der Prager Universit t im Jahre 1348, die den Beginn der Universit tsgeschichte in Deutschland und in Mitteleuropa einleitete(1). Deren sp tmittelalterlichen Anf nge und die Gr ndungsurkunden standen recht fr h im Mittelpunkt des Interesses der tschechischen und deutschen Geschichtsforschung, was angesichts des ehrw rdigen Alters der ersten deutschen Universit t und ihrer besonderen Rolle als Vorbild f r die nachfolgenden Lehranstalten im deutschen und europ ischen Bereich kaum zu verwundern vermag. Peter Moraw u ert sich in diesem Zusammenhang: " Dieses Prager Erbe, wie man auch formulieren konnte, war trotz des kurzen Lebens des Studiums, und ungeachtet von anderswo unwiederholten und wiederholbaren Ph nomenen, war bedeutender als jedes andere- j ngere- Erbe in Mitteleuropa vor dem 18 und 19 Jh., ehe G ttingen und Berlin neue Vorbilder f r ein neues Zeitalter wurden. Nur Paris und Bologna, die ltesten, waren noch wichtiger."(2) Bekanntlich geh ren zur Gr ndung der Prager Universit t 3 Gr ndungsdokumente- die Papstbulle vom 26 Januar 1347, und die zwei nachfolgenden k niglichen Schriften(3). Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit m chte ich die von Karl IV verfassten Stiftungsurkunden im Hinblick auf die Intentionen ihres Verfassers untersuchen- den Stiftsbrief vom 07 April 1348 und das, ein Jahr darauf erlassene, Eisenacher Diplom. Denn es f llt auf, dass der Stiftungsakt offensichtlich zweier Dokumente bedurfte, wodurch sich die Frage nach der Bedeutung und der Zielsetzung insbesondere der zweiten Urkunde f rmlich aufdr ngt. Warum hat der K nig es f r n tig befunden, ein weiteres Dokument auszustellen- zur Besiegelung und Erg nzung seines Stiftsaktes oder zur Bekr ftigung seiner Autorit t? Und wenn man die zweite Annahme als plausibel akzeptiert,

One night in December 1800, in the distant mission outpost of San Antonio in northern Mexico, Eulalia Californio and her lover Primo plotted the murder of her abusive husband. While the victim was sleeping, Prio and his brother tied a rope around Juan Californio's neck. One of them sat on his body while the other pulled on the rope and the woman, grabbing her husband by the legs, pulled in the opposite direction. After Juan Californio suffocated, Eulalia ran to the mission and reported that her husband had choked while chewing tobacco. Suspicious, the mission priests reported the crime to the authorities in charge of the nearest presidio. For historians, spousal murders are significant for what they reveal about social and family history, in particular the hidden history of day-to-day gender relations, conflicts, crimes, and punishments. Fatal Love examines this phenomenon in the late colonial Spanish Atlantic, focusing on incidents occurring in New Spain (colonial Mexico), New Granada (colonial Colombia), and Spain from the 1740s to the 1820s. In the more than 200 cases consulted, it considers not only the social features of the murders, but also the legal discourses and judicial practices guiding the historical treatment of spousal murders, helping us understand the historical intersection of domestic violence, private and state/church patriarchy, and the law.
