The translation of Italian verb-particle constructions into French. The case of "Caos Calmo"
2020
Italian verb-particle constructions (VPCs) are generally formed of a verb base (V) and a locative particle (P). In French VPCs are less productive than in Italian, since their constituents are subject to strict combinatorial restrictions. In this paper, the morphosyntactic structures that are most often used to translate Italian VPCs into French will be determined. In order to do so, an Italian-French parallel corpus consisting of the novel Caos calmo (Veronesi, 2005) and its translation will be analysed. Firstly, an inventory of the VPCs that were found within the corpus will be offered. Secondly, these constructions will be analysed under a quantitative and qualitative point of view. Thir…
Wyrazy dźwiękonaśladowcze w polskim i czeskim przekładzie "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" J. K. Rowling
2019
The article is a contrastive analysis of twenty two Czech and Polish onomatopoeic verbs from translations of J. K. Rowling’s book: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. The main source of data was Ćesky narodnf korpus - Korpus InterCorp v. 9. The starting point was locating the presence of examples of onomatopoeia separately in each translation and then verifying if their presence is motivated by onomatopoeia in the original text or not - usually it was. The next step was to establish what kinds of relations are present between the equivalent and the translated onomatopoeia. In the article, three types of these relations are presented: 1) the exact equivalent refers in the whole text al…
Introduction: Border Memories
2019
This chapter introduces the context of the book. It first argues that the public debate about refugees and border crossing in Europe tends to be ahistorical, treating the situation as a sudden emergency appearing from nowhere. Thinking in terms of bordering, as a verb, underlines that borders require continuous symbolic and material construction and that borders have consequences. The perspective of bordering calls for attention to temporality. This volume adds the analytical lenses of memory and temporality to the critical and political project to think beyond the oppressive bordering taking place in Europe. By doing so, the book broadens the scope of border studies, which tend to focus on…
Journalists’ Associations as Political Instruments in Central and Eastern Europe
2017
This editorial provides the overall context for the five cases—three national and two international—covered in this thematic issue. While the cases are from Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), they highlight fundamental questions of journalism everywhere, including contradictions between freedom and control, professionalism and politics, individual and collective. The associations of journalists serve as very useful platforms to study these questions, especially at historical turning points when the whole political system changed, as happened twice in CEE after World War II.
Tradición católica y ritual festivo: secularización y metamorfosis de lo sagrado
2021
El objetivo del artículo es analizar la relación entre tradición, ritual y proceso de secularización en la modernidad avanzada, a partir de un análisis histórico y etnográfico de las fiestas católicas de Corpus Christi y Semana Santa, además de algunas grandes celebraciones locales. Se defiende que la tradición moderna no es una mera herencia del pasado, sino producto de un proceso de retradicionalización selectiva de prácticas formadas conflictivamente en el mundo católico durante el período de la Contrarreforma, tras un proceso de negociación (basado en un desigual equilibrio de poder) entre hierocracia eclesial y prácticas locales comunes. En la sociedad postradicional, caracterizada por…
Not Only Slurs. A Pragma-rhetorical Approach to Verbal Abuse
2019
The topic of this paper is the complex phenomenon of verbal abuse. The aim is to show the productivity of a pragma-rhetorical approach in addressing this issue. Indeed, integrating modern pragmatics with classical rhetoric, this approach does not isolate words from social practices and therefore is not exclusively focused on slurs (as is the case in the current debate on this topic in the field of the philosophy of language) but it concerns verbal abuse in general. I argue that this wider approach, especially thanks to its focus on the intertwining of linguistic and social components, is more adapted to shedding light on the role that words play in performing violence. Particularly, I take …
The implicit in "In search of lost ime" : study on an aspect of proustien speech
2013
The implicit is defined as content present in speech without being formally expressed. Presupposition and implied content are the two fundamental elements of this concept. They act as information implied in speech whose essence the speaker can grasp or decrypt using the theories of pragmatics and enunciative linguistics. Proustian speech constitutes a remarkable example of the use of the implicit and its concepts. The present work is entirely devoted to the search for the implicit in Proust’s In Search of Lost Time. In our work, the development of this concept emerges especially in the verbal interaction between Proust's characters, also, through the speech of the narrator who opts for a ne…
Rutinas en ELE: La enseñanza de verbos reflexivos desde una aproximación pragmática
2009
Maria.D.Garcia@uv.es Este trabajo presenta un estudio de aula sobre la enseñanza de verbos reflexivos como elementos lingüísticos para la expresión de rutinas diarias en español como lengua extranjera (ELE) desde un enfoque pragmático. Dicho enfoque aboga por la enseñanza y aprendizaje de lenguas orientado al desarrollo del ‘conocimiento pragmático’ de los aprendices de éstas, a saber, el conocimiento consciente de los recursos lingüísticos de una lengua, y las asunciones lingüísticas y socio-culturales que subyacen al uso de los mismos en diferentes contextos. Los sujetos del estudio mostraron en general resultados más positivos que estudiantes de otros grupos de su mismo nivel. This paper…
Classification of prefix aiz- ‘away’ meanings: from Jānis Endzelīns approach to nowadays
2019
The polysemic nature of prefixes in Latvian causes problems in prefix classification. Several authors in different time periods have proposed diverse prefix classification systems. In this research, three different classification systems of prefix aiz- ‘away’ are compared – the classification system created by Endzelīns (1971) in 1907, the classification system created by Soida in 1970 (printed in 2009), and the classification system proposed by Vulāne (2015). To ascertain which meanings are used nowadays the examples are drawn from the corpus. There are 11 prefixes in the Latvian language used in word-formation. In this research, prefix aiz- is chosen as it has a rich meaning system althou…
El valor de la palabra en la prevención de la violencia de género en contextos escolares
2016
<p>Los planes de prevención de la violencia en la escuela deben contemplar que esta no solo se manifiesta de manera física, sino también verbal. El lenguaje es, además, el germen del problema, especialmente en los casos de violencia de género, y en esencia aglutina parte de su solución. Reconocemos el papel fundamental de la educación en su atención y vigilancia como premisa para alcanzar la igualdad entre mujeres y hombres. Precisamente con nuestra propuesta, basada en el estudio de programas anti acoso y de prevención de conductas sexistas, consideramos diez pautas de comunicación verbal eficaces para la prevención de la violencia de género y el fomento de la igualdad, dirigidas al …
