The 24-year-old’s Austrian friend, also in moustache and hat, shuffles his feet while bending forward, then leans back for the next three steps — all with great exaggeration.

  • Hans Christian Andersen's Use of Anthropomorphismi
    Hans Christian Andersen’s Use of Anthropomorphismi Julia Shore Paludan, Lecturer, Sapienza, University of Rome Abstract The topic of anthropomorphism in Hans Christian Andersen’s tales has been discussed with students in classes in Danish Language and Literature at Sapienza, University of Rome (La Sapienza, Università di Roma) both for the purpose of the translation of his works and for understanding the meanings of the imagery in the studied works. Anthropomorphism is a common theme in many of Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tales. Andersen’s symbolic use of nature, household objects, trinkets, toys and even birds, is an important theme in many of his works. He bestows human emotions on animate and inanimate objects, such as love and envy, often with an added touch of humour or irony. Andersen conveys issues of often sombre or tragicomic content, sometimes through allegorical tales and myths, that although they are not necessarily easily translatable or culturally transferable, appeal universally to all generations and nationalities. Andersen’s personification of animals also provides a subtle disguise for graver issues such as loss, and the struggle for freedom. The use of anthropomorphism and symbolism also allows younger readers access to complex and universal issues. Introduction The topic of this paper arose from the teaching of Danish language and literature to students at Sapienza University of Rome. Using a number of Andersen’s works, the specific use and meanings of anthropomorphic imagery was introduced and discussed; both as how this imagery could be translated and understood in Italian, and what they evoked through themes such as love, desire and freedom.

  • Bicentenary Literary Adaptations of Hc Andersen
    UDC 821.113.4 Rennesa Jessup Minnesota State University TRAVELING COMPANIONS: BICENTENARY LITERARY ADAPTATIONS OF H. C. ANDERSEN TALES Adaptation is broadly defined, encompassing the re-working of virtually any kind of text into virtually any other kind of text. Moreover, it frequently involves the re-mediation of texts into entirely new forms. Even so, seemingly simple text-to- text adaptation of texts already frequently subject to adaptation can challenge both traditional and theoretical concepts of adaptation. Such was the case with a major Danish literary project undertaken in 2005. Danish State Railways, Dansk statsbaner (DSB) commissioned a series of adaptations of Hans Christian Andersen tales to be published in the DSB onboard magazine Ud & Se [Out & See] to commemorate the two-hundredth anniversary of H. C. Andersen’s birth. Resulting from the project were twelve original stories by twelve Danish authors: Pia Juul, Jan Sonnergaard, Ib Michael, Iselin Hermann, Preben Major Sørensen, Suzanne Brøgger, Bent Vinn Nielsen, Peter Laugesen, Kristian Ditlev Jensen, Lars Frost, Erling Jepsen, and Naja Marie Aidt. Each author adapted a different Andersen work, ranging from classics including “Den grimme ælling” [The Ugly Duckling], “Den lille havfrue” [The Little Mermaid], and “Kejserens nye klæder” [The Emperor’s New Clothes], to more obscure works such as “Dandse, dandse dukke min!” [Dance, Dance, My Doll!]. Issued in book form as Reisekammeraten og andre H. C. Andersen-historier i nye klæder [The Traveling Companion and Other H. C. Andersen Tales in New Clothes] (Copenhagen, 2005), the collection demonstrates a wide range of approaches to adaptation that seem to stretch the definition of adaptation to its limits.

  • Commonlit | the Pied Piper of Hamelin
    Name: Class: The Pied Piper of Hamelin By Robert Browning 1888 Robert Browning (1812-1889) was an English poet and playwright known for his dramatic verse. “The Pied Piper of Hamelin,” published in 1888, is a poetic retelling of the German legend from the Middle Ages in which a man is hired to lure rats away from a town with his magic pipe. As you read, take notes on the Piper's actions and motivations. [1] Hamelin town's in Brunswick, By famous Hanover city; The River Weser, deep and wide, Washes its wall on the southern side; [5] A pleasanter spot you never spied; But, when begins my ditty, Almost five hundred years ago, To see townsfolk suffer so From vermin, was a pity. [10] Rats! They fought the dogs, and killed the cats, And bit the babies in the cradles, And ate the cheeses out of the vats, And licked the soup from the cook's own ladles, [15] Split open the kegs of salted sprats,1 "Pied Piper with Children" by Kate Greenaway is in the public Made nests inside men's Sunday hats, domain. And even spoiled the women's chats, By drowning their speaking With shrieking and squeaking [20] In fifty different sharps and flats. 1. a small fish of the herring family 1 At last the people in a body To the Town Hall came flocking: "'Tis clear," cried they, "our Mayor's a noddy;2 And as for our Corporation—shocking [25] To think we buy gowns lined with ermine3 For dolts4 that can't or won't determine What's best to rid us of our vermin! You hope, because you're old and obese, To find in the furry civic robe ease? [30] Rouse up, sirs! Give your brains a racking To find the remedy we're lacking, Or, sure as fate, we'll send you packing!" At this the Mayor and Corporation Quaked with a mighty consternation.5 [35] An hour they sat in council, At length the Mayor broke silence: "For a guilder6 I'd my ermine gown sell, I wish I were a mile hence! It's easy to bid one rack one's brain — [40] I'm sure my poor head aches again I've scratched it so, and all in vain.

  • Red Fairy Book,The
    THE RED FAIRY BOOK Edited by ANDREW LANG TO MASTER BILLY TREMAYNE MILES A PROFOUND STUDENT YET AN AMIABLE CRITIC PREFACE IN a second gleaning of the fields of Fairy Land we cannot expect to find a second Perrault. But there are good stories enough left, and it is hoped that some in the Red Fairy Book may have the attraction of being less familiar than many of the old friends. The tales have been translated, or, in the case of those from Madame d'Aulnoy's long stories, adapted, by Mrs. Hunt from the Norse, by Miss Minnie Wright from Madame d'Aulnoy, by Mrs. Lang and Miss Bruce from other French sources, by Miss May Sellar, Miss Farquharson, and Miss Blackley from the German, while the story of `Sigurd' is condensed by the Editor from Mr. William Morris's prose version of the `Volsunga Saga.' The Editor has to thank his friend, M. Charles Marelles, for permission to reproduce his versions of the `Pied Piper,' of `Drakestail,' and of `Little Golden Hood' from the French, and M. Henri Carnoy for the same privilege in regard to `The Six Sillies' from La Tradition. Lady Frances Balfour has kindly copied an old version of `Jack and the Beanstalk,' and Messrs. Smith and Elder have permitted the publication of two of Mr. Ralston's versions from the Russian. A. L.

  • Beauties Vs Beasts by Tatar.Pdf
    Page 1 of 6 Title: Beauties vs. Beasts in the Grimms' Nursery and Household Tales Author(s): Maria M. Tatar Publication Details: The Brothers Grimm and Folktale. Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1988. Source: Short Story Criticism. Ed. Rachelle Mucha and Thomas J. Schoenberg. Vol. 88. Detroit: Gale, 2006. From Literature Resource Center. Document Type: Critical essay Full Text: COPYRIGHT 2006 Gale, COPYRIGHT 2007 Gale, Cengage Learning [(essay date 1988) In the following essay, Tatar examines the textual history of the Bluebeard folktale in Nursery and Household Tales, contrasting narrative elements of "Mary's Child" and "Fowler's Fowl."] Fairy-tale beauties may all be very much alike, but there are two quite different types of beasts in the Grimms' Nursery and Household Tales. First, there are the animal-grooms who make life unpleasant for many a female protagonist: these are the frogs, bears, hedgehogs, and other creatures that press themselves on attractive young girls. But these beasts invariably turn out to be handsome young princes in disguise and generally prove to be perfect gentlemen. The real fairy-tale beasts, even if they are beasts in only the figurative rather than the literal sense of the term, turn out to be murderers masquerading as civilized men: Bluebeard, the Robber Bridegroom (in the tale of that title), and the wizard in "Fowler's Fowl" ("Fitchers Vogel") are the most prominent examples in the Nursery and Household Tales. Bluebeard, the most infamous of this entire lot of beasts, entered the pages of the Grimms' collection, but only in its first edition. For the second, revised edition of 1819, the Grimms eliminated the tale, evidently because it was too close in both substance and verbal realization to its French source.

  • Rendering Culturally-Derived Humour in the New Normal
    New Voices in Translation Studies 11 (2014) The New Norm(al) in TV comedy: Rendering Culturally-Derived Humour in The New Normal Katerina Perdikaki University of Surrey, UNITED KINGDOM ABSTRACT This paper examines the translation of culturally-derived humour – i.e. humour that is created by means of extralinguistic culture-bound references (ECRs) – in the US- American TV series The New Normal (Adler and Murphy 2013). The data were culled from two episodes that were subtitled into Greek for the purposes of the present study. Both episodes feature a number of instances where assumptions associated with ECRs enhance the intended comic effect. Emphasis is placed on the most indicative examples, where the decision-making process was mainly directed towards facilitating the target audience’s understanding of the humour. The article investigates the identification, description and scholarly analysis of certain subtitling strategies that could contribute to a new model of humour translation in audiovisual texts. The employed strategies interact with factors pertinent to: a) the target audience’s sociocultural familiarity with ECRs and b) elements of characterization within the bounds of the TV programme. KEYWORDS: audiovisual translation, extralinguistic culture-bound references (ECRs), humour, The New Normal, translation strategies. 1. Introduction The aim of this paper is to examine humour translation in the Greek subtitled version of the US-American TV series The New Normal (Adler and Murphy 2013). Contrary to previous research which has mainly focused on verbal aspects of humour in audiovisual translation (Chiaro 1992; Zabalbeascoa 2005), this project aspires to shed light on what can be called culturally-derived humour, i.e.
