Handbook of Spanish-English Translation

The Handbook of Spanish-English Translation is a lively and accessible book for students interested in translation studies and Spanish. This book details the growth of translation studies from Cicero to postcolonial interpretations of translation as rewriting. It examines through examples the main issues involved in translation and interpretation, such as text types, register, interference, equivalence and untranslatability. The chapters on interpretation and audiovisual translation and the comparative analysis of Spanish and English are especially significant. The second part of the book offers a rich compilation of diverse Spanish and English texts (academic, literary, and government writings, comic strips, brochures, movie scripts and newspapers) and their published translations, each with a brief introduction by Professor Aranda.

Semiotics and Visual Communication II

The chapters in this book consist of selected papers that were presented at the 2nd International Conference and Poster Exhibition on Semiotics and Visual Communication at the Cyprus University of Technology in October 2015. They investigate the theme of the Conference, Culture of Seduction [the seduction of culture] and look at Seduction as in “deception”, not sexual enticement, but as a mechanism of attraction and appeal which has often been the case in many communication strategies and approaches used by mass and popular culture. Seduction has historic and increasing agency in visual communication—the urgency to entice viewers is ever more powerful in difficult economic times, in an increasingly hyper-real world – and designers are led to become exceedingly complicit in its strategies. The contributions here cover a range of approaches from theoretical aspects of seduction in verbal and nonverbal communication, public spaces, design and meaning, seductive strategies, and advertising design, as well as fashion representations and packaging design.

Este romance, intitulado LÚCIA, foi inspirado no poema homônimo de Castro Alves. Lúcia é um poema magnífico, no qual o nosso poeta não economizou subjetividade de narração com poderosa ação descritiva. É algo que se tenta descrever neste livro. Guardando, evidentemente, as devidas proporções. ... Encheram o pequeno cestinho de laranja comum e laranja-lima e desceram para o rumo de casa. Quando foram descer o barranco que dava no pequeníssimo trecho da chegada, já no quintal de casa, Lúcia escorregou e lá se foi laranja pelo chão todo. Desceram para o lado da pequena cachoeira, atravessaram o Canguçu, pegaram a trilha que singrava perpendicularmente a subida que levava à r...

Latino America [2 volumes]

A Hispanic and Latino presence in what is now the United States goes back to Spanish settlement in the sixteenth century in Florida and the progressive U.S. conquest of the Spanish-controlled territory of California and the Southwest by 1853 and the Gadsden Purchase. Mexicans in this newly American territory had to struggle to hold on to their land. The overlooked history and the debates over new immigration from Mexico and Central America are illuminated by this first state-by-state history of people termed Latinos or Hispanics. Much of this information is hard to find and has never been researched before. Students and other readers will be able to trace the Latino presence through time per...

Em 1949, no jornal carioca O Diário da Noite,nascia Myrna, pseudônimo que Nelson Rodrigues criou para assinar colunas diárias em que respondia a cartas de leitores e leitoras com conselhos amorosos e de relacionamento. A coluna foi um sucesso, e no mesmo ano a escritora se atrevia a uma nova empreitada: o romance-folhetim A mulher que amou demais, uma envolvente história de suspense com todos os elementos que tanto agradavam aos leitores de então e que Nelson trabalhava como ninguém: conflito familiar, desnudamento humano, conflito amoroso, mistério e paixão avassaladora. Narrada com uma linguagem oral e dinâmica, a história, passada em apenas um dia — o dia anterior ao casamento de Lucia e Paulo — prende o leitor até a última linha. Esta edição conta com prefácios da jornalista e escritora Bruna Maia e do crítico literário e professor Luis Augusto Fischer.
