Abstract:

This thesis analyses the position of translations in the work of the American writer and translator Lydia Davis. Davis has been publishing stories and translations since the early 1970s, and has translated works by Maurice Blanchot, Michel Leiris, and Marcel Proust among others. This thesis argues that her translations form a graft onto the body of her own fiction; they are both part of her work and retain their identity as being written by someone else. The first chapter builds on theory from Translation Studies and literary criticism to formulate a theory of translation as a form of writing

Abstract:

Michel Tremblay often denies that he writes about gayness, despite frequent themes of sexual difference in his plays. In Hosanna , for example, he has suggested that the gay content is a metaphor for Quebec's aspirations to independence. In other plays, such as Les anciennes odeurs and Messe solennelle pour une pleine lune d'ete, he seems to be advancing a "banalizing" conception of gay identity. Despite these interpretations, a number of Anglophone academics have mobilized Tremblay's texts to make arguments about community-based gay identity and have treated Tremblay as a gay writer.

Abstract:

The subject of translation is one which appears with striking frequency in the work of the Parisian literary coterie, the Oulipo. As a cosmopolitan group, it is perhaps unsurprising that members should translate one another's work for their native markets, but more than that we find that variant forms such as homophonic translation underlie a considerable portion of the group's output. Translation, as Harry Mathews puts it, is '[ a] principle central to Oulipian research' . This thesis will argue that the preoccupation with translation goes beyond its practice in various Oulipian modes, and th

Abstract:

The Internet – when defined as a massive, uncontrolled database of information – is not a reliable source of information. Despite this, it has developed into the default terminology tool for most translators today. This study explores what criteria are used by translators to define website credibility and whether translation experience affects the criteria used. Three groups of differently experienced translators were asked to translate two technical texts from English to Swedish and document the websites they visited.

This thesis provides a translation and transliteration of a late Meiji period martial arts text, Moral Instruction in Budo (1912), together with a study of its author, Chiba Chosaku (1861-1935).

Chiba argued that martial arts practice (budo) is the way to maintain and transmit martial religious ethics (bushido) in the modern condition of Westernized Japan.

Abstract:

Vladimir Nabokov’s literary production has been widely studied by scholars of American and Russian literature. The present work is focused on the writer’s activity as a bilingual self-translator: once considered a marginal phenomenon, self-translation has attracted in recent years a significant amount of attention among Translation theorists. In the present study, Nabokov’s approach to self-translation was analysed in light of the most recent research in Translation Theory and contextualised within the existing bibliography about Nabokov as a writer and as a translator.

Abstract:

Travel to work by walking, cycling and public transport is healthier than driving and is promoted as active travel. Workplace travel plans that aim to promote active travel as an alternative to driving are a site-based delivery mechanism for transport management options. In some jurisdictions they can be required through land use planning and approvals processes. Research on the effect of workplace travel plans for increasing active travel to work shows they are promising but their effect is not conclusive. Data on their impacts on active travel and physical activity are weak and scarce. Usin

There is an apparent lack of in-depth knowledge about the processes that may underlie the interaction between work and home life, and their relationships with employee health and well-being.

Their partnership therefore provides a fascinating example for theatre translation research of a close working relationship between translator and director.

Este trabalho pretende analisar os aspectos do trabalho voluntário de tradução e, em qual medida, ele interfere nas relações socioculturais e sociedade. Para tanto, tomaremos como objeto de estudo um grupo de tradutores voluntários que atuam na Organização Não-Governamental Soka Gakkai Internacional.
