Miller Comitato Scientifico: Susanna Bonaldi, Louann Haarman, Donna R. Miller, Paola Nobili, Eva-Maria Thüne Referee aggiuntivi per l’attuale volume: Ana Pano, María José Rodrigo Mora Sono lieta di presentare il secondo volume della serie di Atti di Convegno, collocati all’interno dei Quaderni del Centro di Studi Linguistico-Culturali (CeSLiC ), un centro di ricerca del quale sono responsabile scientifico e che opera nell’ambito del Dipartimento di Lingue e Letterature Straniere e Moderne dell’Alma Mater Studiorum – Università di Bologna. Colgo subito l’occasione per ricordare che Gli Atti dei Convegni del CeSLiC conta già il testo: • a cura di D. Londei, D.R. Miller, P. Puccini, Gli atti delle giornate di studio del CeSLiC del 17-18 GIUGNO 2005: Insegnare le lingue/culture oggi: Il contributo dell’interdisciplinarità , http://amsacta.cib.unibo.it/archive/00002055 disponibile anche in versione cartacea: Londei D., Miller D.R., Puccini P.(a cura di), 2006, Insegnare le lingue/culture oggi: Il contributo dell’interdisciplinarità , Quaderni del CeSLiC, Bologna, Edizioni Asterisco. e che, oltre a ciò, i Quaderni accolgono anche una serie di E-Libri che racchiudono (i) un insieme di manuali dal titolo, Functional Grammar Studies for Non-Native Speakers of English , che già vanta cinque volumi pubblicati e, (ii) gli Studi Grammaticali recentemente inaugurati con la pubblicazione nel 2008 del testo di: • Rieger, Marie Antoinette, Die Struktur des deutschen Satzes. Eine Einführung in die dependenzielle Verbgrammatik für Studierende mit Ausgangssprache Italienisch. Teil I: Der einfache Satz ,. Inoltre, i tanti pregevoli Occasional Papers del CeSLiC pubblicati dal 2005 sono tutti accessibili all'URL: http://amsacta.cib.unibo.it/view/series/Quaderni_del_CeSLiC._Occasional_papers.html 9 Questi nuovi Atti raccolgono una rigorosamente valutata selezione dei papers presentati al convegno svoltosi a Bologna, 4-5 dicembre 2008, sul tema: La geografia della mediazione linguistico-culturale (The Geography of Language and Cultural Mediation) I propositi e principi teorico-metodologici che hanno mosso le organizzatrici –la sottoscritta, insieme alle colleghe Paola Puccini e Mette Rudvin– nel proporre il convegno sono trattati nell’ Introduzione generale al volume che segue questa prefazione. La struttura dei contenuti del volume si scompone in tre sezioni: una dedicata ai contributi di carattere in prevalenza teorico; una che racchiude ‘applicazioni’ teoriche all’analisi di diverse varietà testuali, nonché alle professioni, e una che verte sull’indubbio valore dell’approccio mediatore nella didattica delle lingue e delle culture straniere. Ognuno dei molteplici contributi viene presentato a grandi linee con l’obiettivo di orientare il lettore non esperto, descrivendo gli approcci compresi nel volume. I lettori noteranno le evidenti differenze tra i contributi in termini di lunghezza e di forma. A nostro avviso, non si tratta solo di un fatto naturale, ma opportuno. Nel tentativo di delineare la topografia della mediazione, era d’obbligo raccogliere e giustapporre una pluralità di voci che potessero gettare luci sul fenomeno da varie angolazioni. In questa prospettiva, crediamo che il nostro traguardo sia stato raggiunto. Siamo fiduciose, dunque, che il trattamento ampio e variegato che il volume offre di questo tema della mediazione linguistico-culturale –tema sul quale il CeSLiC intende continuare ad indagare– possa stimolare i lettori ad una riflessione produttiva che, ce lo auguriamo, significa problematizzare, e pertanto arricchire e rinnovare, la teoria e prassi scientifiche adottate nei suoi confronti. Donna R. Miller Bologna, lì 15 settembre, 2009 10 Introduction to the Selected Proceedings of the International Conference on The Geography of Language and Cultural Mediation Why ‘mediation’? Donna R. Miller University of Bologna Some brief words on the reasons why our research center, CeSLiC, very much wanted this conference, need to be said; and they will be said in English –not because I espouse any form of ‘Linguistic Imperialism’ – let so much be clear!– but simply because this volume is aimed at a genuinely plurilinguistic audience and because such an audience warrants an introduction in a global lingua franca . ‘Mediation’ has of course become a bit of a ‘buzz-word’ in our recent postcolonial/ postmodern times. We use the term more and more, but often do so rather unthinkingly, uncritically. It is, I believe, worth stopping for a moment to ask ourselves what the word ‘means’ –or better, what we mean when we use it. If we address the etymology of the word, we note that the un qualified word in English, which is of late Latin origin, has meant since the late Middle Ages: Mediative action ; the process or action of mediating between parties in dispute to produce agreement or reconciliation ; [and also] intercession on behalf of another LME (NSOED CD-Rom, my emphasis ). I believe we can see, in the purpose clause above: i.e., to produce agreement or reconciliation , as well as in the phrase, on behalf of another , meanings which undeniably place the accent on the kind of practical and socially-necessary-and-useful mediation that we wanted to dedicate the second part of our conference to. At a diplomatic level, it also describes the kind of activity the Jimmy Carter’s of the world are dedicated to: extremely vital work of course, and well worth reflecting on as well. But every practice needs a theory to define itself against –and then to feed back into. And so it is that this conference was designed to be to a large extent devoted to contemplating just what this mediation ‘process’ consists in, pondering the notion of mediation in its philosophical and ethical derivations and ramifications. As our ‘rationale’ for the conference online announced, we intended to reflect on mediation –as a symbolic experience as well as a concrete, material one. In addition, we have the 11 ultimate aim of creating new paradigms for the study and practice of Mediation, paradigms that eschew the insidious rhetorics of oversimplification and marginality (Kachru 1994). The spatial metaphor of ‘linguistic hospitality’, or mediation as a ‘courtesy visit’ (after Ricoeur 2006), is a useful one for exploring the linguistic-cultural experience of mediation, not only in terms of the two ‘sides’, if you will, that are typically involved, but also with reference to the mediat or and to the very process of the mediation itself, including its potentially heuristic value to both Self and Other. This approach clearly requires a transdisciplinary perspective if it is to be dealt with seriously, and it was also with this need in mind that our speakers were ‘picked’, as it were, to help stimulate our thoughts on this first day. But such a transdisciplinary approach also requires an explicitly defined concept of ideology on the part of the scholar, though

  • Authorial and Editorial Voices in Translation
    Authorial and Editorial Voices in Translation Wednesday 2nd November 2011 - KUA Auditorium 23.0.49 Michelle Woods: Sense and Censorship: Authors and the Agents of Change In 1969, Milan Kundera sent an angry public denunciation of his English publishers to the Times Literary Supplement, comparing them to the "Moscow censors" who had delayed the publication of his first novel, The Joke, for two years, and who would ban all his work in Czechoslovakia in 1970. Kundera suggested that the substantial cuts to the text, and reworking of the novel's chronology, amounted to a form of market censorship by the editors and publisher. Kundera is well-known for his antipathy to translators, but in fact much of his ire focused on the editing of his translations, performed by people with no knowledge of the language or culture behind his work, and whose bottom line rested on selling a commercially viable product. To what extent can the work of those handling translations - editors, publishers, directors, producers - become a form of censorship? Is is possible, or even helpful, to speak of censorship when looking at the work done to translations, once the actual translation work has been completed? What kind of changes are made to translations before they are published or performed? Is there an ideological context behind those changes even in free and democratic societies? Are form and style a battleground in an increasingly homogenous notion of what good, commercially viable writing is? In this paper, I want to use the examples of two Czech writers: Milan Kundera and Václav Havel, to examine the pressures placed on translators and writers by those other agents (or, as Maria Tymoczko writes, "external constraints").

It’s an honor to open our campus to you as a resource. We’re proud of the breadth, depth and excellence of our scholarship and research in environmental sciences. UC Davis serves as a model of environmental sustainability, not only to our students, but also to industry and the public at large. The innovations coming out of our Institute of Transportation Studies have shaped the direction of clean-fuel policies and technologies in California and the nation. Our West Village housing community is the largest planned “zero net energy” community in the nation. In addition, our sustainable practices on campus earned UC Davis the “greenest-in-the-U.S.” ranking in the UI GreenMetric World University Rankings. We’re working hard to make UC Davis a completely zero-carbon campus by 2025. All of these things speak to our long-standing commitment to sustainability. This conference provides a forum for networking opportunities and crucial discussions to inform and invigorate our commitment to practices that are both environmentally sustainable and socially just. There’s never been a better time to engage our broader communities in conversations about these topics. I want to thank our UC Davis faculty, students and partners for hosting this important conference for scholars, educators and writers in environmental humanities. Enjoy the conference and take time to explore our beautiful campus.

  • Les Murray's Black Dog and Sunflowers Lames Tulip
    Les Murray's Black Dog and Sunflowers lames Tulip Les Murray, Australia's leading contemporary poet, has in recent years put on record the 'dark side' of human existence in a way that is both harrowing and creative. On the one hand, his poetry and prose from the late 1980s has depicted his own personal breakdown. On the other hand - and amazingly at the same time - he was writing poems of spiritual affirmation, his 'presence' poems, poems which in realistic and naturalistic terms glorify Nature through the poet's awareness of a world that is good. First, Murray's 'black dog'. It was a term he took from Winston Churchill who used it to refer to his own severe depression. Murray notes that the condition he calls his 'black dog' has been known for centuries: medieval demonologies list it, and Goethe's Faust has Mephistopheles acting it out in disguise. What happened with Murray was that from the late 1980s he began to suffer a long drawn-out breakdown, leading to a physical collapse and near-death experience from a liver abscess in 1996. Emergency surgery and a dramatic hundred kilometre dash from Taree to Newcastle made national and international news, and Murray found himself the centre of widespread attention and expressions of admiration and affection. The 'black dog', as if miraculously, disappeared with the trauma. Murray wrote about his experiences in Killing the Black Dog.l It is a book of prose followed by poems, and what is remarkable about it is not so much the quality of the writing as the way it fed into a more general creativity for him at this period.

  • Introduction 1 Cultural Translation
    Notes Introduction 1. Some of the criticism of these three poets is cited in the chapters on their work. There have also been studies confined within the framework of indi- vidual nations, such as works by Bruce King (on India) and Paul Kane (on Australia), which are cited in the chapters on Ramanujan, Wright and Murray and listed in the bibliography. Works which attempt to cross national bound- aries include Jahan Ramazani, The Hybrid Muse: Postcolonial Poetry in English (Chicago, IL: University of Chicago Press, 2001), Rajeev S. Patke, Postcolonial Poetry in English (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2006) and James Wieland, The Ensphering Mind: History, Myth and Fiction in the Poetry of Allen Curnow, Nissim Ezekiel, A. D. Hope, A. M. Klein, Christopher Okigbo, and Derek Walcott (Washington: Three Continents Press, 1988). Patke makes similar points about the place of postcolonial poetry in literary studies (p. vii). 2. My expression ‘colonial divide’ is a provisional way of speaking, since this whole book is in effect a study of how that divide is constantly being transgressed. 3. Mary Louise Pratt, Imperial Eyes: Travel Writing and Transculturation (London: Routledge, 1992), p. 6. 4. Seamus Heaney, An Open Letter (Derry: Field Day, 1983). The anthology in ques- tion was The Penguin Anthology of Contemporary British Poetry (Harmondsworth: Penguin, 1982). 5. Seamus Heaney, ‘Through-Other Places, Through-Other Times: The Irish Poet and Britain’, in Finders Keepers: Selected Prose 1971–2001 (London: Faber and Faber, 2002), pp. 364–82 (p. 368). 6.
