What Is Cultural Translation? In this book, Sarah Maitland uncovers processes of negotiation and adaptation closely associated with the translation of languages behind the cultural phenomena of everyday life. For globalized societies confronted increasingly with the presence of difference in all its forms, translation has become both a metaphor for thoughtful encounter and a touchstone act for what we see, do and say, and who we are.

Drawing on examples from across cultural domains (theatre, film, TV and literature) this work illuminates the elusive concept of 'cultural translation'. Focusing on the built environment, current affairs, international relations and online media, this book arrives at a view of translation in its broadest sense. It is a means for decoding how we shape the cultural realm and serves as a vehicle for new ways of seeing and being that question the received ideas that structure the communities in which we live.

Written in a clear and engaging style, this is the first book-length study of cultural translation. It builds a powerful case for expanding the remit of translation to cover the experience of living and working in a globalized, multicultural world, and is of interest to all involved in the academic study of representation and contestation in contemporary cultural practice.

Описание: By day, Dexter is just a twelve-year-old kid who wears glasses, has messy hair, likes only soft clothes that don't make his skin itch, and loves to play with his dragon toys. He doesn't fit in because he doesn't always use the right words to talk to people, or he gets upset about something others don't think is a big deal. Dexter is just different. But he's OK with that. He understands that all the things that make him odd are because he's meant to be different. He's meant to be a superhero with a cape and superpowers. When the world is in trouble, Dexter puts on his cape (which makes him look cooler and feel stronger and wiser and protects him). He becomes Super Drat, a superhero with a mission to change the world. A book for young readers, The Superhero Within tells a story to help children understand that everyone is different and that's what makes the world special.

Описание:

In The Art of Color and Design, Maitland Graves identifies and analyzes the core principles of visual design in one of the most important art reference books of the 20th century. In the author's own words, this work is intended to be "an orderly, clear, and simple analysis of the elements and principles upon which all visual art is built". A comprehensive analysis of all facets of design, this text is essential for all visual artists and designers.
As a key figure in an art-world fractured and subdivided into ultra-specific genres like cubism, vorticism, and Dadaism, Graves reaffirms the "common ideals and criteria" of visual aesthetic order, and understanding these principles is critical to cultivating a broad, inclusive perspective.
The language of art becomes a crucial factor in the distillation of these principles, and the Graves' efforts to clarify and elevate the muddled terminology of art discourse are testament to their importance.
The exercises at the end of each section make this an especially useful tool for students and instructors.
