TRANSLATING INTERTEXTUALITY AS INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATION A CASE STUDY BY BASSAM M AL SAIDEEN BA, Yarmouk University, 1990 MA, Yarmouk University, 1997 DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Translation Studies in the Graduate School of Binghamton University State University of New York 2018 © Copyright by Bassam Al Saideen 2018 All Rights Reserved Accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Translation Studies in the Graduate School of Binghamton University State University of New York 2018 August 3, 2018 Jeanette Patterson, Chair and Faculty Advisor Department of Romance Languages and Literatures, Binghamton University Michael Pettid, Member Department of Asian and Asian American Studies, Binghamton University Mary Youssef, Member Department of Classical and Near Eastern Studies, Binghamton University Elizabeth Tucker, Outside Examiner Department of English, Binghamton University iii Abstract Intertextuality refers to the textual space where texts intersect and new (hyper)texts emerge. It is the shaping of a text’s meaning by other (inter)texts present in it. As a literary device taking forms like allusion, quotation, pastiche, translation, etc., it depends on the presupposition of the presence of intertexts (or hypotexts) in (hyper)texts and on the reader’s recognition of such presence. For the recognition of intertexts, authors usually rely on shared cultural knowledge with the reader. The presence of intertexts in a text can either open it to interpretations or direct the reader towards a one in particular. If such recognition can possibly be missed intraculturally, the possibility is doubled when the reading is intercultural, as in translation. To minimize the loss of the intertextual context of the source text (ST), translators adopt certain translation strategies (such as analogous intertexts, paratextual devices, and exegetical translation) that ensure such context is relayed into the target text (TT) and recognized by the target reader. While the semantic equivalence can neutralize the linguistic difference, relaying the intertextual relations in the ST remains the daunting problem encountered by the translator. iv I argue in this dissertation that intertexts, particularly Quranic references, in the Arabic novel are a source of semantic density and pose a considerable challenge to the translator. Since semantic equivalence alone does not guarantee that the ST intertextual relations are maintained in the TT, a synthesis of other translation strategies is required to relay the ST intertextual relation into the TT. Drawing on Kristeva’s (1986) ‘vertical intertextuality,’ Fairclough’s ‘manifest intertextuality’ (Momani et al., 2010), Derrida’s ‘iterability’ and ‘citationality’ (Alfaro, 1996), Bakhtin’s ‘reaccentuation’ or ‘double-voicing’ (Kristeva, 1986), I opted for paratextual devices to ensure that the TT reader will capture those relations. Bracketed explanations were used extremely economically to avoid producing an enlarged translation. v TO THE MEMORY OF MY FATHER TO MY BELOVED MOTHJER AND FAMILY vi ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This work wouldn’t have been possible without the unwavering help and support of my Committee Chair and Advisor Prof. Jeanette Patterson to whom I am immensely grateful and deeply indebted.

My Prison Companions 123 x INTERODUCTION Despite the traditional view of translation as a pure linguistic activity, contemporary theorizing of translation perceives it as an act that has consequences and seeks to achieve goals in its receiving cultural context. Douglas Robison (1997) notes that translation still operates under old assumptions exemplified by scholars’ prescriptive approaches which are held by many readers and translators alike, favoring fluent translations. These approaches limit translation to a pure linguistic and impersonal process. This view of translation that renders the translator’s role to a mechanical and neutral activity has been increasingly contested in the recent and expanding field of translation studies. The last three decades of the twentieth century are marked by a shift from prescriptive to descriptive approaches to the study of translation. Recent scholarship (e.g. postcolonial studies, gender studies, and cultural studies) perceive it as a very subjective enterprise whereby translators act consciously through their textual choices and interventions to produce texts that serve their purposes and agendas. 1 I agree with the latter view, that the translator’s neutrality is a mere myth, and that translators must account for their subjective agency and take responsibility for their work. Such agency becomes immediately self-evident from the translator’s selection of texts for translation and continues through a long process of decision-making and interventions until the target text is produced, edited, and published. I will show in this dissertation how I employ my translator’s agency on two levels through my translation of the Jordanian novelist Ayman al-ᶜUtum’s (Ya Saḥibai al-Sijin”1 O! My Prison Companions2 (2012“يا صاحبي السجن novel from Arabic into English. On the first level, my agency accounts for necessary interventions during the process of translation, which are justified, not only by the linguistic differences between the two languages involved, but from the fact that this novel is laden with intertexts and cultural references, whose interpretation and implications may be obscured or significantly limited in a non-interventionalist translation. This will be illustrated through my analysis of and justification for my translation of the novel. On the second level, my 1 I used IJMES Transliteration system for Arabic for transliterating Arabic sounds available at https://ijmes.chass.ncsu.edu/docs/TransChart.pdf 2 All the titles of al-ᶜUtum’s poem collections and novels, in addition to all Arabic texts, mentioned in this dissertation are my translation from Arabic, unless otherwise stated. 2 agency accounts for using this translation as a tool of resistance against a culture of silence and oppression, and for advocating human rights and freedom of speech. It also aims at promoting this emerging writer and helping him and his work break out of their geographical and linguistic confines by providing them with a different and wider readership in the English-speaking world.

TRANSLATING IRONIC INTERTEXTUAL ALLUSIONS Katrien Lievois [email protected] Université d’Anvers Translated from French by Trish Van Bolderen1 [email protected] University of Ottawa Abstract Based on a corpus consisting of Albert Camus’s La Chute, Hugo Claus’s Le chagrin des Belges, Fouad Laroui’s Une année chez les Français and their Dutch versions, this article examines the ways in which ironic intertextual allusions are translated. It begins with a presentation of the theoretical concepts underpinning the analysis and subsequently identifies, through a detailed study, the following nine strategies: standard translation; literal translation; translation using markers; non-translation; translation into a third language; glosses; omissions; substitutions using intertextuality from the target culture; and substitutions using architextuality.

  • Pastiche in Paul Auster's the New York Trilogy
    qw Advances in Language and Literary Studies ISSN: 2203-4714 Vol. 7 No. 5; October 2016 Australian International Academic Centre, Australia Flourishing Creativity & Literacy Pastiche in Paul Auster’s The New York Trilogy Maedeh Zare’e (Corresponding author) Islamic Azad University, Tehran Central Branch, Iran E-mail: [email protected] Razieh Eslamieh Islamic Azad University, Parand Branch, Iran Doi:10.7575/aiac.alls.v.7n.5p.197 Received: 17/06/2016 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.7575/aiac.alls.v.7n.5p.197 Accepted: 28/08/2016 Abstract This article is a Jamesonian study of Auster’s The New York Trilogy in which one of Fredric Jameson’s notions of postmodernism, pastiche, has been applied on three stories of the novel. This novel is one of Auster’s outstanding postmodern works to which Jameson’s theories of postmodernism, in particular, pastiche can be applicable. Pastiche has been defined by Fredric Jameson as an imitation of a strange style and contrasted to the concept of postmodern parody. This article indicates that theory of pastiche can be applied on both the form and content of three stories of the above mentioned novel. Keywords: Pastiche, Parody, Depthlessness, Historicity 1. Introduction Paul Benjamin Auster (1947) is one of the most influential American postmodern authors, whose works mostly mix realism, experimentation, sociology, absurdism, existentialism and crime fiction. Pastiche, intertextuality, aesthetic dignity and Auster’s own appearance in his works, such as City of Glass (1985), are also some of the features of his works. The search for identity and self-discovery can be found in his works such as The New York Trilogy (2015)1, Moon Palace (1989), The Music of Chance (1990), The Book of Illusions (2002), and The Brooklyn Follies (2005).

  • AN INTRODUCTION to INTERTEXTUALITY AS a LITERARY THEORY: DEFINITIONS, AXIOMS and the ORIGINATORS Mevlüde ZENGİN∗ “The Good of a Book Lies in Its Being Read
    Pamukkale Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi Sayı 25/1, 2016, Sayfa 299-326 AN INTRODUCTION TO INTERTEXTUALITY AS A LITERARY THEORY: DEFINITIONS, AXIOMS AND THE ORIGINATORS Mevlüde ZENGİN∗ “The good of a book lies in its being read. A book is made up of signs that speak of other signs, which in their turn speak of things. Without an eye to read them, a book contains signs that produce no concepts; therefore it is dumb.” Umberto Eco, The Name of the Rose Abstract The aim of this study is to provide a succinct discussion of intertextuality from a theoretical perspective. The concept of intertextuality dates back to the ancient times when the first human history and the discourses about texts began to exist. As a phenomenon it has sometimes been defined as a set of relations which a text has with other texts and/or discourses belonging to various fields and cultural domains. Yet the commencement of intertextuality as a critical theory and an approach to texts was provided by the formulations of such theorists as Ferdinand de Saussure, Mikhail Bakhtin and Roland Barthes before the term ‘intertextuality’ was coined by Julia Kristeva in 1966. This study, focusing on firstly, the path from ‘work’ to ‘text’ and ‘intertext’, both of which ultimately became synonymous, and secondly, the shifting position of the reader/interpreter becoming significant in the discipline of literary studies, aims to define intertextuality as a critical theory and state its fundamentals and axioms formulated by the mentioned originators of the intertextual theory and thus to betray the fact that intertextuality had a poststructuralist and postmodern vein at the outset.

  • The Confrontation Between Essence and Existence in Plato and Aristotle’S Ideas in Art Ramin Keshavarz1 & Moheb Ali Absalan2
    Environment Conservation Journal 16 (SE) 161-170, 2015 ISSN 0972-3099 (Print) 2278-5124 (Online) Abstracted and Indexed The confrontation between essence and existence in Plato and Aristotle’s ideas in art Ramin Keshavarz1 & Moheb Ali Absalan2 Received:25.07.2015 Revised:30.08.2015 Accepted:25.09.2015 Abstract Plato by proposing the "theory of forms" changed the essence of truth and he converted it from sensorial case to extrasensory. As a result, he disparaged art and beauty that they were depended with world of phenomena and senses. He considered idea’s position in the sphere of institute and episteme and placed sensorial case, "Doxa" and "Eikon" as base of art that from his point of view is not world of "to be" and "not to be", but its world of representation and as a result he interpreted art world and it’s product as a false phenomena. He claimed that art relates with revealed component of ego that causes irreparable ruin for human being and has relationship with "Episteme". In the other hand, Aristotle unlike Plato believed in art and existence originality and considered art as a result of human’s episteme and rationality. He introduced adequacy, cognition natural talent as three principle of art. He claimed art and science deal with episteme and knowledge and they are common at the end. But what is Plato and Aristotle disagreement in sphere of art and from where it originates? And which cases are not similar in the sphere of art? The following essay will explain Plato and Aristotle’s art philosophy and comparing and explaining their ideas with relating existence originality and essence originality.
