On Psychological Aspects of Translation

by Bruno Osimo ...

Series Book 1 - Translation Studies
Translation science is going through a preliminary stage of self-definition. Jakobson’s essay “On linguistic aspects of translation”, whose title is re-echoed in the title of this article, despite the linguistic approach suggested, opened, in 1959, the study of translation to disciplines other than linguistics, semiotics to start with. Many developments in the semiotics of translation – ... Read more

Cognitive distortion, translation distortion, and poetic distortion as semiotic shifts

by Bruno Osimo, Sofia A. Osimo ...

Series Book 1 - Translation Studies
Both interlingual translation shifts and poetic production can be seen in a semiotic perspective in terms of mental filtering. The shared ground of the three processes – cognition translation versification – is to be found in a semiotic perspective: signs (prototext, reality, perception) are interpreted and worked through (mind, interpretants, cognition) and give as an output an object (metatext, ...

The Translation of Realia

How to render words that mean culture-specific things

by Sergej Vlahov, Sider Florin ...

The concept of 'translation of realia' is doubly conventional: realia are normally untranslatable (from a dictionary perspective) and, again, are normally not rendered (in context) by means of translation.With respect to dictionary translation, however, "there are no words that could not be translated into another language, at least descriptively, i.e. by means of a widespread combination of words ...

Types of translation processes in culture

by Peeter Torop ...

This book explores mediation processes in culture. Culture is human creation. Like any creative act, culture arises from the need for self-expression—without which it is difficult to speak of identity. All creation is directed both toward its recipient and the creator themselves. Communicating with others simultaneously means communicating with oneself. On the cultural level, this points to the ...

Semiotics for Beginners

Survival guide for the ordinary citizen

by Bruno Osimo ...

Hardly anyone knows what semiotics is. It is a pity, because it is a discipline that helps us to understand many things in life, not only philosophical, abstract things, but also the everyday things that happen to each of us. I do not want to make the mistake here of immediately trying to say what it is with big difficult words, and in this way gambling on the trust of the reader who is so kindly ... Read more

The knowledge of the Russian language allowed me to read (and translate into Italian) crucial authors like Popovič, Lyudskanov, Torop, Revzin and Rozentsveyg. Since not many Western translation scholars know them, we get as a consequence a translation theory which is split between ... Read more

Juri Lotman's Translation Handbook

What a translation handbook would look like if written by Lotman

by Bruno Osimo ...

Series Book 17 - Translation Studies
This book is based on the principle that it is possible to create a text using the writings of an author, focusing on a theme that was not necessarily considered as fundamental or central in the original author’s view. Lotman has never dealt with translation, meant as a professional practice. However, he has often used the word perevod [translation] and its derivatives to talk about semiotics. In ... Read more

The Translation of Culture

How a society is perceived by other societies

by Bruno Osimo ...

Series Book 11 - Translation Studies
A culture is a way of perceiving reality. Do not be misled by the verb “perceive”. Some might think that, if the objective reality of a culture is the same, its perception must also be unique for all individuals. But perception is a subjective phenomenon, and what is perceived is not the photograph of reality, but one of the many possible photographs. The individual’s experience also influences ... Read more
