"Übersetzungsfabriken" : das deutsche Übersetzungswesen in der ersten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts
(1989)
Wenn der Anbruch des Zeitalters der Weltliteratur auch noch auf sich warten ließ - was die deutschen Buchhändler und Übersetzer betrifft, so folgten sie Goethes Aufruf zur "Beschleunigung" dieser Epoche nur allzu eifrig. Neben französischen Romanen und Theaterstücken waren zum Zeitpunkt von Goethes Diktum v.a. die Romane Walter Scotts Gegenstand hektischer Übersetzungstätigkeit. Ebenfalls im Jahre 1827 ließ Wilhelm Hauff in seinen satirischen Bildern Die Bücher und die Lesewelt seiner Phantasie in Bezug auf die Herstellung von Übersetzungen freien Lauf. Hauff richtet seine Satire gegen den in Zwickau ansässigen Verlag der Gebrüder Schumann, die sich maßgeblich an dem Geschäft mit den Übersetzungen der Romane Scotts beteiligten.
This paper focusses On the discussion of the preservation of expressive aspects in translation., Considerations are grounded on the HJELMSLEVian concepts of the isomorphy between the planes of content and expression, which are both constituted by-substance and form. The present study intends to show that the connotative equivalence of a text can only be achieved in the target language when attention is paid to both the formal-stylistic and the textual-normative dimensions. This involves the appropriation of the stylistic values of the linguistic expression in the source language and, mainly, the understanding of the tropes and the relationships between them. Thus, the present study draws on discourse analysis, comprehending "enunciation" theories and the rhetorical and pragmatic considerations on the level of expression. Considering that the literary text is privileged in providing stylistically marked choices, it is important to highlight the phonetic and semantic correspondences, that is, the close relationship between sound and meaning, which harbours one of the major difficulties in translation. The theory is applied to "Os Sertões" (English translation: "Rebellion on the Backlands") by Euclides da Cunha.
A tradução de Samuel Putnam de "Os Sertões" : "Rebellion in the Backlands" de Euclides da Cunha
(1997)
The present paper looks at certain aspects of Samuel Putnam's translation of Euclides da Cunha's "Os Sertões", "Rebellion in the Backlands". Of great importance is the fact that "Os Sertões", usually seen as a work of literature in Brazil, is seen more as a factual narrative in English, and placed by its publisher, the University of Chicago Press, in the Literature/History section. Putnam also adds a large number of footnotes to those of Euclides de Cunha. Also of interest is the fact that Putnam, translating just when the US was entering the Second World War, goes to great lengths in his preface to emphasize how close "Os Sertões" is to the American experience of division in both the Civil War and the entrance of the US into the Second World War.
This paper discusses the question of how Translation Theory and German Philology can be helpful to each other. It starts with some general observations on the history of the German Language with special emphasis on Middle High German. In the second part, a Middle High German Poem is translated into Portuguese.
