Crossing Borders
This edited volume investigates translations from the languages of China into the languages of Western societies, from the 17th to the 20th centuries. Rather than focusing solely on the activity of translation, the authors extend their explorations to cover the contexts within which the translators worked from different perspectives, touching on various aspects of the institutional and intellectual backgrounds that informed their writings. Studies of translation from literary Chinese into English constitute the majority of the contributions, but the volume is also illuminated by excursions into Latin, French and Italian, while the problems of translating the Naxi script are confronted as well. In addition, the wider context of the rendering of Chinese into other languages is explored through a survey of recent Japanese translation series. Throughout the volume, translation is presented not simply as a linguistic exercise but rather as a key element in world history, well worthy of further interdisciplinary investigation.

Home sweet Holmes
Giallo - racconti (339 pagine) - Undici racconti apocrifi (più uno) proposti in maniera cronologica da un autore che non smette di stupirci. Le storie scritte da Lucio Nocentini sono esercizi letterari coraggiosi, oltre a essere un fiume di idee in piena. I suoi racconti sono fonte di fervida creatività, con alcune "pennellate" ingegnose. Una storia che scava nel passato militare di compagni d’armi che sembrano essere legati da un comune e terribile segreto; un pavone venerato a Topkapi che ingoia il più nefasto dei diamanti; altri diamanti, questa volta rubati, che ricompaiono addirittura nella cucina della signora Hudson; un uomo invisibile che invita a una cena con delitto, in un rin...
