Academic literature on the topic 'L references'

A translation of some chapters of the book "La kryptonite nella borsa” by Ivan Cotroneo and subtitles for the equivalents scenes in the movie “La kryptonite nella borsa”. A translation of cultural references from Italian into English without adapting them to the target culture.

The aim of this dissertation is to introduce the concept of dubbing as a form of audiovisual translation (AVT) and the importance of linguistic and cultural factors that are involved in the process of translating for dubbing. Nowadays, AVT is one of the most interesting and thriving fields in translation studies and dubbing is the oldest AVT mode. This paper is divided into three sections: the first one presents the origins of dubbing in Italy and the comparison between dubbing and subtitling, as the two main AVT modes. The second section is dedicated to the various issues that translators face and the techniques they usually adopt when translating for dubbing. Moreover, this section illustrates the perception of dubbing by the Italian audience. Finally, the last and most crucial section focuses on the analysis of the dubbed Italian version of the TV series Sherlock compared to the original one, analysing linguistic and cultural aspects that are particularly interesting from the point of view of translation.

Several instances of discourse heterogeneity are analyzed through cultural references in the original texts of the following English novels: Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bront? (1816-1855), published in 1847; The Mill on the Floss, by George Eliot (1819-1890), published in 1860 and Great Expectations, by Charles Dickens (1812-1870), published between 1860 and 1861. Theoretical support was sought in Kramsch, Bakhtin, Maingueneau, Authier-Revuz, Widdowson and Larsen-Freeman. Activities in English are proposed in the end whereby it can be seen that the questions at issue can be used extensively in the classroom.<br>Esta pesquisa busca abordar o texto liter?rio em l?ngua inglesa na perspectiva da cultura e da heterogeneidade discursiva, enquanto fonte de elementos facilitadores do processo ensinoaprendizagem de ingl?s l?ngua estrangeira.

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2004.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The main aim of study is to investigate characterisation in two of Ngewu's dramas. Ngewu's dramas are contemporary and many scholars have not yet had time to research them. The story in the drama Amadada la afunani ezintsaneni ?( 1998), is about the sexual abuse of children. This is new because the abuse of small children is not seen to indicate culture especially now that even fathers abuse their children. In the olden days children used to look to grown -ups for protection of every kind. The story in the second drama Yeha Mfazi Obulala Indada (1997) , is about a wife who hires assassins to kill her husband. In the past wives were submissive to their husbands. It was unheard of a wife challenging the husband's authority, let alone hiring assassins to kill him. Chapter 1 introduces the aim, the scope, the theories and the methods of the study. Chapter 2 deals with the plot structure of the dramas Amadada la afunani ezintsaneni? (1998) and Yeha Mfazi Obulala Indada (1997) Chapter 3 deals with characterisation in isiXhosa dramas, Amadada la afunani ezintsaneni(1998) and Yeha Mfazi Obulala lndoda (1997) Chapter 4 deals with language and the pattern of stylistic devices Chapter 5 concludes the findings of the study.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die hoofdoel van hierdie studie is om die karakterisering in twee van Ngewu se dramas te ondersoek. Ngewu se dramas is hedendaagse daarom is daar nog veel navorsing daaroor ezintsaneni (1998) gedoen nie. Die storie in die drama Amadoda la afunani handel hoofsaaklik oor die seksuele molestering van kinders. Seksuele kindemolestering is In relatiewe nuwe versknser want dit is taboe in kultuur veral nou dat die bekend is dat kinders deur hulle vaders gemolesteer word. In vroeer jare was kinders van volwassens afhanklik vir beskermering en welvaart. Die tweede drama Yeha Mfazi Obulala lndoda (1997) handeloor I vrou wat sluipmoordenaars huur om haar man om die lewe te bring. In vroeer jare was vroue aan hul mans onderdaning. Dit was ongewoon dat I vrou haar man se gesag sou ondermyn, en nog meer ondenkbaar die huur van sluipmoordenaars om hom om die lewe te bring. In hoofstuk 1 vind ons die doel van die studie, die omvang ,teoretiese raamwerk en metode van die studie. Hoofstuk 2 handeloor die struktuur van die twee Amadoda la afunani ezintsaneni (1998) en Yeha Mfazi Obulala Indoda ( 1997) Hoofstuk 3 handeloor die karakterisering in die isiXhosa dramas, Amadoda la afunani ezintsaneni (1998) en Yeha Mfazi Obulala Indoda (1997) Hoofstuk 4 handeloor die taal en skryfstyl van die skrywer. Hoofstuk 5 bevat die samevatting van die studie.

I present the first reference genome for sunflower, Helianthus annuus. The reference is 3.6 billion base pairs long and is divided into seventeen lines of text representing the DNA of sunflower’s seventeen chromosomes. This reference was constructed via DNA sequencing and assembly of sunflower line HA412, physical mapping using a sequence-based barcoding approach, and genetic mapping based on low coverage DNA sequencing of a highly polymorphic mapping population. I also assembled and annotated a reference genome of sunflower’s mitochondrial genome. Sunflower and its wild relatives are a useful system for studying ecology and evolution. Helianthus annuus may be regarded as a natural compilospecies; adaptive introgressive hybridization with related species has facilitated the expansion of its range over a variety of soils and climates. In addition, the compatibility of sunflower with its extremophile wild relatives offers the opportunity to breed environmentally resilient sunflower cultivars that can cope with global climate change. The resource described in this thesis will be a useful tool for evolutionary biologists and crop breeders with interests pertaining to sunflower genetics.<br>Science, Faculty of<br>Botany, Department of<br>Graduate

Molinia caerulea, the purple moor grass is widely distributed and morphologically variable. Its occurrence on well-drained Ca'+-rich alkaline Leblanc waste is unusual since the grass normally has a calcifuge habit and grows an wet acid peaty soils. Molinia is deciduous losing its leaves after the formation of an abscission zone. Leaf abscission in grasses is rare. This project aims, therefore, (a) to investigate the anatomy of leaf abscission in Molinia using scanning electron microscopy; (b) to quantify and explain morphological and biochemical differences which occur between two populations growing in contrasting habitats, namely acid moorland and Leblanc waste. Scanning electron microscopy of freeze fractured nodes of naturally senescing Molinia showed that leaf separation was due to separation of cells along the middle lamella, although some cells showed fractured cell walls. Molinia should prove an interesting model in which to study abscission process in the Gramineae. A comparative study of the two contrasting populations of Molinia was made. Twenty-four morphological characters were used to classify the Molinia. Multivariate analysis distinguished the two populations. Acid-moorland plants were characterised predominantly by vegetative features eg. leaf length, plant height. Whereas in alkaline-waste Molinia, flower morphology was most important eg. culm length, lemma length. There were differences in growth and flowering between the two populations. Differences in growth were maintained under constant conditions suggesting that endogenous factors were responsible. Classification using cluster analysis of proteins extracted from basal internodes separated by SDS-PAGE distinguished between the two populations. Analysis of isoenzyme patterns obtained from SGE and PAGE showed that variation within each population was greater than that between populations. There was thus no evidence of genetic differences between the two populations. Root-surface phosphatase activity of both field and laboratorygrown plants showed pH optima appropriate to the field environment of the roots. In laboratory grown plants, there was evidence that the enzyme activity responded to changes in pH but not calcium concentrations. Variability in Molinia populations involves both endogenous factors and phenotypically plastic modifications at both whole organism and molecular levels.
