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.
Religion, Children's Literature, and Modernity in Western Europe, 1750-2000
In this book some 25 scholars focus on the relationship between religion, children's literature and modernity in Western Europe since the Enlightenment (c. 1750). They examine various aspects of the phenomenon of children's literature, such as types of texts, age of readers, position of authors, design and illustration. The role of religion in giving meaning both in a substantive sense as well as through the institutionalised churches is studied from an interdenominational point of view (Judaism, Roman Catholicism, Protestantism and Anglicanism). Finally, the contribution of pedagogy and child psychology in the interaction between modernity, religion and children's literature is also discuss...
Diálogos intertextuales 2
Este libro estudia la transformacíon de la literatura infantil y juvenil (LIJ) en textos multimedia y pretende sistematizar una metodología de crítica a las adaptaciones audiovisuales en español de obras de LIJ inglesas y alemanas y a los productos (pseudo)literarios derivados, cuya proliferación excesiva se acompaña de una preocupante falta de calidad. Para lograr estos objetivos se han seleccionado obras en inglés y alemán dirigidas a niños y jóvenes, y de gran popularidad en la cultura origen y en la meta gracias a la adaptación audiovisual. Primero se analiza el texto literario original y su adaptación al medio audiovisual en sus vertientes técnica y lingüística. Luego se estudia el texto audiovisual derivado (doblaje y/o subtitulación), incluyendo comentarios valorativos con respecto a las estrategias de traducción empleadas. Finalmente, se tratan los productos (pseudo)literarios derivados de las adaptaciones audiovisuales.
Handbook of Translation Studies
Moreover, many items in the reference lists are hyperlinked to the TSB, where the user can find an abstract of a publication. All articles (between 500 and 6000 words) are written by specialists in the different subfields and are peer-reviewed. Last but not least, the usability, accessibility and flexibility of the "HTS" depend on the commitment of people who agree that Translation Studies does matter. All users are therefore invited to share their feedback. Any questions, remarks and suggestions for improvement can be sent to the editorial team
Translating Fictional Dialogue for Children and Young People
Literary and multimodal texts for children and young people play an important role in their acquisition of language and literacy, and they are a flourishing part of publishing and translating activities today. This book brings together twenty-one papers on the particular aspect of the translation of feigned orality. As the link between the literary and the multimodal text, fictional dialogue is the appropriate place for evoking orality, lending authenticity and credibility to the narrated plot and giving a voice to fictitious characters. This is illustrated with examples from narrative and dramatic texts as well as films, cartoons and television series, in their respective modes of mediation: translating, interpreting, dubbing and subtitling. The findings are of interest from the scholarly point of view of contrastive linguistics, for the professional practice of translating, interpreting, dubbing and subtitling and in the educational context.

Didáctica del discurso oral en la educación primaria
Este trabajo tiene como primera exigencia la de abordar la enseñanza y el aprendizaje del discurso oral en la Educación Primaria. Para enraizar tal cometido con nuestra tradición escolar, hemos llevado a cabo un recorrido por aquellos grandes momentos del Sistema Educativo Español en los que, olvidada la retórica, los pilares de la educación lingüística quedaron reducidos a la lectura, gramática y escritura. La lengua hablada, por el contrario, prácticamente no se ha contemplado como materia de aprendizaje relacionada con el “arte de hablar” desde el Plan Pidal de 1845. De igual modo, analizamos las nuevas aportaciones que han incorporado a la Didáctica de la Lengua los estudi...
