Crucial Readings in Functional Grammar

Crucial Readings in Functional Grammar is an invaluable resource to anyone working in Functional Grammar, student and scholar alike. It contains important articles that have led to new avenues of research in the theory beyond Dik's two-volume Functional Grammar (1997), each concluded with a short paragraph with suggestions for further research. The book also contains an introduction to current Functional Grammar theory by the editors. Crucial Readings is unique in bringing together in one volume the various ideas that complement Dik's canonical presentation of the theory. The editorial contributions provide a comprehensive review of Functional Grammar publications.

Actas del V Simposio Internacional de la Asociación Andaluza de Semiótica: Almería, 16-18 de diciembre de 1993

El presente volumen, coeditado por la Universidad de Almería y la Asociación Andaluza de Semiótica, recoge las contribuciones presentadas al V Simposio Internacional de la citada Asociación, celebrado en Almería del 16 al 18 de diciembre de 1993. En la andadura de esta Asociación, la publicación en soporte de papel de estos cincuenta y dos textos supone un paso progresivo más, del que hay obligatoriamente que congratularse, con respecto a anteriores Simposios, en los que ya se pudo presentar, primero en microfichas y luego en microfichas y papel, el balance de la reunión científica. Nuestro agradecimiento, pues, desde la Asociación y desde la Universidad de Almería a todos aquellos socios, profesores e investigadores que participaron en aquel encuentro, en la confianza de que seguirán colaborando en distintas reuniones científicas y, en particular, en las de nuestra asociación para que los estudios de semiótica en Andalucía vayan siendo, cada vez más, una realidad pujante.

Translation, the Canon and its Discontents

This collection addresses the complex process by which translation and other forms of rewriting have contributed to canon formation, revision, destabilization, and dismantlement. Through the play between version and subversion, which is inherent to any form of rewriting, these essays – focusing on translations since the sixteenth century down to the present day – stress the role of translation and adaptation as potentially transformative mediations, capable of shaping and undermining identities. Such manipulation is deeply ambivalent, since it can be used as a means of disseminating the ideology of oppressive regimes at the expense of the source text; but it can also serve to garner attention to marginalised texts. This tense interplay between political, social, and aesthetic purposes almost inevitably generates discontents, which may turn out to be the outcome of translation in general. However, discontent is a relational concept, depending on where one stands in the field of competing positions that is the canon.
