  • 'Translating' Emotions: Nationalism in Contemporary Greek Cinema
    ‘Reading’ and ‘Translating’ Emotions: Nationalism in Contemporary Greek Cinema by Sophia Sakellis A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Research) Department of Modern Greek and Byzantine Studies The Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Sydney October 2016 ABSTRACT This study explores emotions related to nationalism, and their manifestations in contemporary Greek cinema. It also investigates the reasons and mechanisms giving rise to nationalism, and how it is perceived, expressed and ‘translated’ into other cultures. A core focus within the nationalist paradigm is the theme of national identity, with social exclusion ideologies such as racism operating in the background. Two contemporary Greek films have been chosen, which deal with themes of identity, nationalism, xenophobia, anger and fear in different contexts. The study is carried out by drawing on the theories of emotion, language, translation and cinema, to analyse the visual and audio components of the two films and ascertain their translatability to an Australian audience. Both films depict a similar milieu to each other, which is plagued by the lingering nature of all the unresolved political and national issues faced by the Greek nation, in addition to the economic crisis, a severe refugee crisis, and externally imposed policy issues, as well as numerous other social problems stemming from bureaucracy, red tape and widespread state-led corruption, which have resulted in massive rates of unemployment and financial hardship that have befallen a major part of the population. In spite of their topicality, the themes are universal and prevalent in a number of countries to varying degrees, as cultural borders become increasingly integrated, both socially and economically.

  • 82 Post-Editing of Machine Translation Output
    Matej Kovačević, Post-editing of MT output Hieronymus 1 (2014), 82-104 POST-EDITING OF MACHINE TRANSLATION OUTPUT WITH AND WITHOUT SOURCE TEXT Matej Kovačević Abstract Post-editing of machine translation output is a practice which aims to speed up translation production. There is still no agreement on whether post-editors should have access to the source text of the translations they are post-editing. The aim of this paper is to see how access to source text influences post-editors’ quality of work and their speed. An experiment was conducted among 22 graduate students of English, who post-edited two translations produced by Google Translate. The subjects were divided into two groups, with access to the source text for only one of the translations. Task duration and the number of corrected errors in the MT output were measured. Types of errors were further analysed. Contrary to expectations, access to source text was found not to have a considerable impact on speed. As expected, it did have an impact on the quality of the final translation. 1. Introduction Machine translation (MT) systems have been available to translators for 60 years, but they still cannot produce perfect translations. This is the reason why people are still apprehensive when it comes to using such systems. The development of MT systems has introduced a practice called post-editing of MT output whereby a machine translates the text and the translator (post-editor) revises the translation. This paper will explore that practice, more specifically the issue of whether the post-editor should have access to the source text (ST) when post-editing a translation.

It is based on contributions of end-users as well as scientific and scholarly communities from across borders, languages, nations, continents, and disciplines. It consists in collecting knowledge about all worldwide translations of one original work and sharing that data through a digital and interactive global knowledge map. Collected translations are processed in order to build multilingual parallel corpora for a large number of under-resourced languages as well as to highlight the transnational circulation of knowledge.

  • A Dictionary of Translation and Interpreting
    1 A DICTIONARY OF TRANSLATION AND INTERPRETING John Laver and Ian Mason 1 2 This dictionary began life as part of a much larger project: The Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Speech and Language (General Editors John Laver and Ron Asher), involving nearly 40 authors and covering all fields in any way related to speech or language. The project, which from conception to completion lasted some 25 years, was finally delivered to the publisher in 2013. A contract had been signed but unfortunately, during a period of ill health of editor-in- chief John Laver, the publisher withdrew from the contract and copyright reverted to each individual contributor. Translation Studies does not lack encyclopaedic information. Dictionaries, encyclopaedias, handbooks and readers abound, offering full coverage of the field. Nevertheless, it did seem that it would be a pity that the vast array of scholarship that went into The Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Speech and Language should come to nought. Consequently, we offer this small sub-part of the entire project as a free-to-use online resource in the hope that it will prove to be of some use, at least to undergraduate and postgraduate students of translation studies – and perhaps to others too. Each entry consists of a headword, followed by a grammatical categoriser and then a first sentence that is a definition of the headword. Entries are of variable length but an attempt is made to cover all areas of Translation Studies. At the end of many entries, cross-references (in SMALL CAPITALS) direct the reader to other, related entries. Clicking on these cross- references (highlight them and then use Control and right click) sends the reader directly to the corresponding headword.

  • Reconfiguring the Extraterritorial History, Language, and Identity in Selected Works by Edwidge Danticat and Junot Díaz
    Reconfiguring the Extraterritorial History, Language, and Identity in selected works by Edwidge Danticat and Junot Díaz by Camilo Chiappe Bejar A dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy UCL 1 I, Camilo Chiappe Bejar confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. ________________ 2 ABSTRACT This thesis argues for a reassessment of the concept of extraterritorial literature—a term coined by George Steiner in the late sixties to highlight the global approach of nomad authors who refused to belong to a single national tradition by means of linguistic experimentation. It does so by examining a variety of examples from the work of Edwidge Danticat and Junot Díaz, two authors born in separate nations within the same island (Hispaniola) who live in the United States and who write in a language strange yet adjacent to their countries of origin. Danticat and Díaz express their extraterritoriality through three different approaches: By reframing the ‘official’ historical discourse of Haiti and the Dominican Republic in the 20th century perpetuated by the military regimes of the Duvaliers and Trujillo; by diversifying theories of identity creation and the migrant’s role within and outside of his or her diaspora; and by reconfiguring the elocution of a new extraterritorial language which challenges pre-established parameters through the subversion of Core languages. On a larger scale, this thesis contends that, in an increasingly fluid contemporary world, extraterritorial literature can serve as a counterpoint to the insular concerns of canonical systems of classification and standardised concepts of national literature.

  • Evaluating the Acceptance and Usability of Kiswahili Localised Mobile Phone App in Kenya: a Case of M-Pesa App Alfred Sanday Wandera, Kenyatta University, Kenya
    The Journal of Specialised Translation Issue 24 – July 2015 Evaluating the acceptance and usability of Kiswahili localised mobile phone app in Kenya: a case of M-Pesa app Alfred Sanday Wandera, Kenyatta University, Kenya ABSTRACT Despite the efforts made in localising the M-Pesa app (a mobile money application) from English to Kiswahili, little had been done to evaluate the acceptance and usability of its translated Kiswahili menu in Kenya. During the pilot implementation of M-Pesa (started on October 11, 2005 and ended on May 2007), an extensive research conducted on its users depicted that most of them preferred using the English language menu of the application vis-à-vis the Kiswahili menu (International Finance Corporation 2011:9). Subsequent to that finding, Safaricom Company (the company that operates M-Pesa) is said to have altered the Kiswahili menu with the aim of making it less complex and hoping that it could in turn attract more acceptability and usability among its users. This paper sought to analyze the findings of a research conducted by Wandera (2014) on the acceptance and usability of the Kiswahili localised mobile phone application in Kenya. Accordingly, this paper aimed at investigating the public’s awareness, attitude and perception of the M-Pesa (mobile money application) Kiswahili menu. The study found out that generally, the level of acceptance and usability of Kiswahili language menu of M-Pesa app was low. This could be attributed to lack of awareness about the existence of the Kiswahili language menu on the M-Pesa app, use of hard and unfamiliar terms in the Kiswahili menu, and the negative attitude that the public have towards the Kiswahili language.
