  • Choquerar Den Moderne Läsaren. Aristofanes Aves På Svenska: Översättarna, Översättningarna Och Det Kroppsliga
    Choquerar den moderne läsaren. Aristofanes Aves på svenska: översättarna, översättningarna och det kroppsliga Johanna Akujarvï Språk- och litteraturcentrum, Lunds universitet [email protected] Inledning Detta är en studie av översättningar till svenska av Aristofanes komedier, med fokus på hur översättare hanterat den för den gamla attiska komedin så typiska obsceniteten, att Aristofanes uppehåller sig vid kroppsdelar och kroppsliga funktioner som inte gärna benämns eller talas om i senare tider och i kultiverade kretsar. Med undantag för Ecclesiazousae har samtliga Aristofanes komedier översatts åtminstone delvis mellan 1826 och 1968, den första respektive den senaste publicerade översättningen.1 Om de partiella översättningarna och bearbetningarna lämnas åt sidan, har det kommit • en översättning vardera av Pax, Plutus och Vespae; • två översättningar vardera av Lysistrata, Nubes, Ranae och Thesmopho- riazusae; • tre vardera av Equites och Aves. Svenska översättares hantering av obscenitet och skatologi undersöks här med de tre översättningarna av Aves som fallstudie. Jämte Equites är Aves den komedi som över- satts oftast till svenska. Som grundtext har Aves den fördelen att den är den minst oanständiga av Aristofanes komedier – grov, explicit obscenitet och skatologi är säll- synt i den,2 vilket gör den lätthanterlig för en kort fallstudie – och som specimen för en översättningshistorisk undersökning den fördelen att dess tre svenska versioner har en viss kronologisk spridning samt att en av dem har satts upp på scen. 1. Appendix samlar samtliga kända både kompletta och partiella översättningar (avsnitt 1), omarbetningar samt bearbetningar (avsnitt 2 och 3) av Aristofanes till svenska i kro- nologisk ordning i sina respektive kategorier. 2.

This project would not have been possible without the organic support of my committee. I am specifically thankful to my supervisor, Elizabeth Richmond-Garza, for giving me the freedom to explore ideas at my own pace, and for reminding me to pause when my thoughts would become restless. A pause is as important as movement in the journey of a thought. I am thankful to Martha Ann Selby for suggesting me to subhead sections in the dissertation. What a world of difference subheadings make! I am grateful for all the conversations I had with Cesar Salgado in our classes on Transcolonial Joyce, Literary Theory, and beyond. I am also very thankful to Michael Johnson and Hannah Chapelle Wojciehowski for patiently listening to me in Boston and Austin over luncheons and dinners respectively. I am forever indebted to David Damrosch for continuing to read all my drafts since February 2007. I am very glad that our paths crossed in Kali’s Kolkata.

  • Solär Tragedi
    Södertörns högskola Institutionen för filosofi D-uppsats i filosofi 15 hp Vårterminen 2009 SOLÄR TRAGEDI Herakleitos Fragm 94 ”Ἥλιος γὰρ οὐχ ὑπερβήσεται µέτρα· εἰ δὲ µή, Ἐρινύες µιν Δίκης ἐπίκουροι ἐξευρήσουσιν.” Av: Anders Lindström Handledare: Hans Ruin Abstract What are the basic thoughts formulated in the Heraclitean fragments? A cosmology, a philosophy of nature, the idea that all can be reduced to a single substance? There is always a risk that Heraclitus is fitted into a thought pattern he doesn’t belong to, if we – from our present horizon – focus on continuity in an attempt to frame his thinking as part of an overall progress, running from the so-called pre-Socratics to Aristotle, in the history of philosophy. If we picture the dawn of Western civilization as an early development of scientific thinking, built on a gradual and continuous growth of knowledge, we will easily go astray as we try to discover the Greek origins of philosophy. Assuming, for example, that the readings of Heraclitus as a natural philosopher have come to a dead end, can we approach the fragments from a different angle? The aim of this paper is not to give a systematized reading of all the remaining fragments of Heraclitus, but neither to necessarily contradict the various interpretations that emphasise how these shattered remains reflect a coherent philosophy. The focal point is the role of the sun in the fragments, but every chapter presents different perspectives, thematically possible to connect to (Diels-Kranz) Fragm 94: “The sun will not transgress his measures. If he does, The Furies, ministers of Justice (Dikê), will find him out.” (transl.
