Humour is considered to be a universal human trait but at the same time, very subjective. The present research focuses on the comparative analysis of humour translation in the situational comedy The Simpsons. Humour is a problematic trait for translators because it depends not only on the language but also on the context and cultural information. Translators need to be well informed about important current cultural information, social stereotypes on professions, sex roles, races, intra- culturally connoted places or historical events. Translators need to be skilled enough and know about the different types of humour and translation strategies for various jokes. The translation is a decision-making process of choosing what to do with the form of expression and what the author wants to achieve by choosing one or the other forms. Created in the USA, the sitcom (an abbreviated version of the situation comedy) has always been an extremely popular genre of a television show. Broadcasted in many languages to various audiences around the world, The Simpsons is the longest-running animated sitcom. This article reveals differences between Russian and Lithuanian humour translations, found in the animated American sitcom The Simpsons. The identified humorous instances in the original version were selected and classified according to Zabalbeascoa’s (1996) classification of jokes. Keywords: humour, joke, translation, Simpsons. animated American sitcom The Simpsons; to assess Introduction the context and reasons for humour in the selected utterances; to examine the voice-over translation of Audiovisual translation has been continually the gathered examples and to compare both growing since the very beginning of the advance of analysed translations.

  • The Id, the Ego and the Superego of the Simpsons
    Hugvísindasvið The Id, the Ego and the Superego of The Simpsons B.A. Essay Stefán Birgir Stefánsson January 2013 University of Iceland School of Humanities Department of English The Id, the Ego and the Superego of The Simpsons B.A. Essay Stefán Birgir Stefánsson Kt.: 090285-2119 Supervisor: Anna Heiða Pálsdóttir January 2013 Abstract The purpose of this essay is to explore three main characters from the popular television series The Simpsons in regards to Sigmund Freud‟s theories in psychoanalytical analysis. This exploration is done because of great interest by the author and the lack of psychoanalytical analysis found connected to The Simpsons television show. The main aim is to show that these three characters, Homer Simpson, Marge Simpson and Ned Flanders, represent Freud‟s three parts of the psyche, the id, the ego and the superego, respectively. Other Freudian terms and ideas are also discussed. Those include: the reality principle, the pleasure principle, anxiety, repression and aggression. For this analysis English translations of Sigmund Freud‟s original texts and other written sources, including psychology textbooks, and a selection of The Simpsons episodes, are used. The character study is split into three chapters, one for each character. The first chapter, which is about Homer Simpson and his controlling id, his oral character, the Oedipus complex and his relationship with his parents, is the longest due to the subchapter on the relationship between him and Marge, the id and the ego. The second chapter is on Marge Simpson, her phobia, anxiety, aggression and repression. In the third and last chapter, Ned Flanders and his superego is studied, mainly through the religious aspect of the character.

  • State V. Maurice Szyslak
    STATE OF NEW JERSEY v. MAURICE SZYSLAK, Defendant - Appellant A-03-1234-T3 Superior Court, Appellate Division Submitted August 18, 2003 - Decided September 11, 2003 Before Judges GRIM, REAPER and MERCY. On appeal from Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Union County, Cr-03-123. Lionel Hutz argued the cause for appellant (Cobbler & Barrister, L.L.P., attorneys for defendant-appellant, Mr. Hutz, of counsel and on the brief). Nicole Riviera, Assistant Union County Prosecutor, for the State of New Jersey (Frank Grimes, Union County Prosecutor, attorney; Ms. Riviera, of counsel and on the brief). REAPER, J.A.D. joined by GRIM, J.A.D. On March 7, 2003, following a four-day jury trial in the Superior Court, Law Division, Union County, defendant Maurice Szyslak was convicted of first-degree murder in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:11-3a. He was sentenced on April 8, 2003, to a term of life imprisonment without the possibility of parole pursuant to N.J.S.A. 2C:11-3b. Prior to trial, defendant moved pursuant to N.J.R.E. 104(a) to have his confession excluded at trial and to suppress all statements and evidence relating to his interrogation while in police custody on grounds of involuntariness and unfair prejudice. In this appeal, defendant contends that the trial court erred when, on February 28, 2003, it denied defendant's motion. We disagree, and hold that the police lawfully elicited a voluntary confession from the defendant during his interrogation. Additionally we hold that statements, documents, and other evidence relating to defendant's interrogation and confession were properly admitted at trial.

This Is Not a Kwik-E-Mart! The Satire of Libraries, Librarians and Reference Desk Air-Hockey Tables Casey D. Hoeve Introduction Librarians are obsessed with stereotypes. Sometimes even so much so that, according to Gretchen Keer and Andrew Carlos, the fixation has become a stereotype within itself (63). The complexity of the library places the profession in a constant state of transition. Maintaining traditional organization systems while addressing new information trends distorts our image to the outside observer and leaves us vul- nerable to mislabeling and stereotypes. Perhaps our greatest fear in recognizing stereotypes is not that we appear invariable but that the public does not fully understand what services we can provide.
