  • I'm a Sicilian American
    I’m a Sicilian American Dedicated to my parents Gaetano and Rosa Alessi Coniglio and my eldest brother Guy , who came to America in 1913 and 1914 from Serradifalco, SICILY . I’m a Sicilian American. I’m a Sicilian American. I’m the son of immigrants who left a land of history and beauty, of poets and dreamers, volcanoes and olive trees. A land that taught the world what a modern nation could be, before most modern nations existed. A land that formed the largest country, The Kingdom of the Two Sicilies , from Naples and Abruzzo to Messina and Palermo, that was subsumed into the new ‘Kingdom of Italy’ after the ‘unification’. My parents left because for all its lore and loveliness, and their fierce pride in it, Sicily was poor and demeaned, and could offer little hope for their family’s future. I’m a Sicilian American. My heritage includes mythical Persephone, Vulcan, and Icarus; Greek scholars Archimedes, Empedocles and Diodorus Siculus; composers Bellini and Scarlatti, and writers Verga and Sciascia. I’m a Sicilian American. I’m Antonio Crisafi. I came before there was a United States and in 1696 commanded the fort at Onondaga. I’m Padre Saverio Saetta, who died in 1695 while bringing Christianity to the New World. I’m Enrico Fardella, who fought against the Bourbons in Sicily, one of the first people’s revolutions in Europe, in 1848, and then became a brigadier general in America’s Civil War. I’m a Sicilian American. I’m a descendant of Southern Italian immigrants who formed 80% of the ‘Italians’ who came to America in the ‘Great Migration’ of the late 1800s and early 1900s, most, from the island of Sicily.

  • Význam Zobrazování Násilí Ve Filmech Davida Cronenberga
    Význam zobrazování násilí ve filmech Davida Cronenberga František Vaculík Bakalářská práce 2017 ABSTRAKT Ačkoliv je zobrazování násilí v médiích velmi populární, přetrvává názorový konflikt o škodlivosti a samoúčelnosti násilného obsahu v audiovizuálním médiu. Pro podporu me- diálního násilí lze zmínit skutečnost, že v mnoha případech se s násilným obsahem pracuje inteligentně a esteticky. To dokazuje současný filmový režisér kanadského původu, David Cronenberg. Má práce má na příkladu tohoto tvůrce analyzovat násilí v médiích z hlediska psychologického estetického a myšlenkového. Pro tuto analýzu jsem použil, jeden z jeho nejvýraznějších filmů Videodrome, ve kterém je mé téma velmi názorně obsaženo. Klíčová slova: David Cronenberg, násilí, psychologie, horor, sci-fi, Videodrome ABSTRACT Although the depiction of violence in the media is very popular, there is still an ideological conflict about the harmfulness and nonsensicality of violence content in audiovisual media. For the support of concept of medial violence is possible to say, that in many cases is worked with violence very intelligently and esthetically. The evidence of this fact is the film director David Cronenberg. My work should on his example analyze violence in the media from the esthetical and intellectual point of view. I used his most expressive movie Videodrome for this analysis. David Cronenberg, violence, psychology, horror, sci-fi, Videodrome Prohlašuji, že odevzdaná verze bakalářské/diplomové práce a verze elektronická nahraná do IS/STAG jsou totožné. Ve Zlíně,

  • Domestication in Contemporary Polish Dubbing Urszula Leszczyńska, University of Warsaw, and Agnieszka Szarkowska, University of Warsaw/University College London
    The Journal of Specialised Translation Issue 30 – July 2018 “I don't understand, but it makes me laugh.” Domestication in contemporary Polish dubbing Urszula Leszczyńska, University of Warsaw, and Agnieszka Szarkowska, University of Warsaw/University College London ABSTRACT Despite being (in)famous for its use of voice-over in fiction films, Poland also has a long- standing dubbing tradition. Contemporary Polish dubbing is largely domesticated: culture- bound items from the original are often replaced with elements of Polish culture, which is supposed to increase viewers’ enjoyment of the film. In this study, we examined whether Polish viewers can identify references to Polish culture in the contemporary Polish dubbing of foreign animated films and whether they enjoy them. With this goal in mind, we conducted an online survey and tested 201 participants. Given that many references relate to items from the near or distant past, we predicted that viewers may not fully understand them. The results show that, paradoxically, although viewers do not fully recognise references to Polish culture in contemporary Polish dubbing, they welcome such allusions, declaring that they make films more accessible. The most difficult category of cultural references to identify in our study turned out to be allusions to the canon of Polish literature, whereas the best scores were achieved in the case of references to social campaigns and films. Younger participants had more difficulties in recognising cultural allusions dating from before the 1990s compared to older participants. The vast majority of participants declared they enjoy domestication in contemporary Polish dubbing.
