Within translation studies books on translating conceptually dense texts, such as philosophical or theoretical writings, are remarkably few. Although the translation of literature has been a favourite topic for many decades, the translation of theories on literature has been neglected. The phrase ‘theories of translation’ is everywhere, but ‘translation of theories’ is a rare sight. On the other hand, the term ‘translation’ has become a commonplace in literary and cultural studies – yet usually as a rhetorical figure describing the fate of those who struggle between two worlds and two languages, such as migrants or women. Not much attention has been paid to the role of ‘trans...
Semiotics can be considered as a well-organized signification journey taken among the pages of the work of art. It requires background knowledge related to the field and its analysis tools, as well as careful reading practices in the text to reach the projected destination after stopping over in certain stations. These stations represent meaning intersections where the meaningful formations are articulated to contribute to the generation of the semantic universe of the text. The presentation of such a fictional universe can be complicated because of the nature of the literary work and the language used. With regards to Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four, what makes its fiction precious is the masterful acts of the author in both paradigmatic and syntagmatic dimensions. This book conducts a semiotic analysis in order to unfold the enigmatic semantic organization of Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four narrative by penetrating the formative structures at various meaning levels of the text.
Drawing on the Universal Chalcidoidea Database and numerous studies conducted in Turkey, this work presents a detailed account of the families, genera, and species that make up Turkey's Chalcidoidea fauna. The book builds upon the foundational work of Dr Mikdat Doğanlar, a leading figure in Turkish Chalcidoidea research, who bequeathed his collection of over 12,000 Chalcidoidea specimens to Ankara's Plant Protection Central Research Institute. Readers will find comprehensive information on distribution, hosts, associations, parasitoids, and noteworthy records. The book uncovers the existence of 19 families, 51 subfamilies, 269 genera, and 1,024 species of Chalcidoidea in Turkey, with Eulophidae, Pteromalidae, and Encyrtidae boasting the highest species count. A comprehensive list of Chalcidoidea species found in Turkey is also included in the book's appendix. The central aim of this study is to shed light on the role of Chalcidoidea, a group of paramount agricultural significance, within Turkey's fauna, thereby providing a valuable resource for researchers investigating similar topics.

This book includes a sound critical appreciation of three non-fiction novels written by George Orwell, a clear conscious of a gentlke generation. These non-fictions are Homage to Wigan Pier, Down and Out in Paris and London. Of these books, the first deals with the Spanish civil war in which Orwell himself fights together with POUM militias at the front. The second book examines the life of the miners working in an industrial town and their problems under desolate life conditions. The third reports an intellectual but a realistic discussion on the levels of poverty among the plongeurs in Paris and the tramp in London. These works are certainly reliable documents of historic value with their factual accounds of the presented problems.
