For many years, the Research Centre for Specialised Translation and Intercultural Communication in UTCB has had the honour of being the main organiser of various national and international conferences, round tables, Authors’ Day events, summer and winter schools for students whereby experience and youth have had a chance to meet and learn from each other. Our events have been attended by celebrated academics from universities in Romania and abroad. We constantly appreciate these participations, as a guarantee for interesting projects of cooperation, for the purpose of extending the areas of specialised communication. Conference proceedings are published in separate volumes, while individual articles are published in our biannual Scientific Journal. The present volume, “Found in Translation” – Translations Are the Children of their Times, includes the contributions of participants in our third International Conference, celebrating 10 years of specialised translation and interpretation studies in our university. The main topics of the articles are translation studies, terminology and lexicography. All the studies herein have been blind peer-reviewed and comply with the international rules of originality and correct rendering of bibliographical sources. The in-depth analysis of various issues related to specialised translation along with terminological and lexicographical studies proves that these approaches are always rewarding for both researchers and the target readers and resulting debates are bound to enrich an area of research which has already proved its validity and value. We are proud to see that, under the auspices of the Research Centre for Specialised Translation and Intercultural Communication, young contributors are determined to leave their mark on contemporary research, thus ensuring 9 that Translation Studies, Cultural Studies and the field of Humanities have a bright future. The role of conference volumes is to ensure that ideas remain available for future readers, in a pool of wisdom, enthusiasm and creativity. We live in a world of constant human and technological development, in which, regardless of any fears, the role of culture and cultural mediators is secure and blooming. As part of this new multicultural world we are aware of our complex role as both trainers of future generations and gatekeepers of universal values. Assoc. Professor Carmen ARDELEAN Director of the Research Centre for Specialised Translation and Intercultural Communication 10 OVERCOMING THE MAJOR DIFFICULTIES IN TRANSLATING FIXED PHRASES FROM TURKISH TO ENGLISH AND VICE-VERSA Melih KARAKUZU Cristina NICOLAESCU Abstract: Our paper dwells on the difficulties of translating fixed phrases, such as idioms, expressions and proverbs from Turkish to English and vice-versa, focusing on their cultural understanding by the interpreters as well as linguistic major differences. The translation errors in/from these languages may be humorous or confusing due to their literal/non-literal uses or misinterpretations and distortions of meaning. Starting from the basic idea that words depend on the context, we propose some ways of overcoming those difficulties, based on our translating and teaching practice. First of all, cultural information carried by fixed phrases should prevail in this case, on the condition that the multiple equivalents possible provided by various translators will not create a further confusion due to false synonymy or incomprehensible polysemy. Another major point of our analysis is indeterminacy or untranslatability. Keywords: language, difficulties, idioms, language, translation Introduction This paper starts from the premise that for the languages spoken in the West and the East there is a stark difference in approaching translation theory and practice. On this account we situate English and Turkish to theoretical extremes so that the challenge of transferring meaning is more evident. Comparative linguistics provides the basis for differentiating particularities of grammar structures, which opens the “floodgates” to further discussions on translatability limits of fixed phrases according to long established factors such

This volume, containing lives of the last four Princesses of the royal house of Stuart, forms an appropriate sequel to our Lives of the Queens of England, or rather we should say of the Queens of Great Britain, into which our chain of royal female biographies expanded, on the succession of James VI. to the sovereignty of the Britannic Empire. The lives of Elizabeth, Queen of Bohemia, and her daughter Sophia, Electress of Hanover, on whose posterity the regal succession of these realms was settled by the last parliament of King William III., have already been given in the " Lives of the Queens of Scotland and Princesses connected with the regal succession of Great Britain." We have now the honour of introducing the mother of King William III. to the attention of our readers. She was the eldest daughter of King Charles I.

  • Marriage Patterns of Aristocratic British Women, 1485-2000 By
    Marrying by the Numbers: Marriage Patterns of Aristocratic British Women, 1485-2000 By: Kimberly F. Schutte Submitted to the graduate degree program in History and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Dr. Katherine Clark Chairperson Dr. Victor Bailey Dr. J.C.D. Clark Dr. Geraldo de Sousa Dr. Leslie Tuttle Date Defended: April 18, 2011 The Dissertation Committee for Kimberly F. Schutte certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Marrying by the Numbers: Marriage Patterns of Aristocratic British Women, 1485-2000 _________Katherine Clark_____ Chairperson Dr. Katherine Clark Date Approved: April 18, 2011 ii Abstract This project is a study of the marriage patterns of aristocratic British women over the more than five-century period between 1485 and 2000. It employs a two-fold evidentiary base, combining a demographic analysis with a more traditional analysis of primary sources such as letters, journals, and diaries. Together, the statistical and the written evidence provide a window into the intersection of marriage and rank among elite British women between the sixteenth and the twentieth centuries. As a result of this research, this dissertation argues that there was a remarkable level of consistency in rank identity among the British aristocracy despite great changes in government, religion, and society. iii Acknowledgements A project that has been a lifetime in the completion necessarily accumulates a number of debts, both professional and personal, debts that I gratefully acknowledge here. This work has been conducted under the painstaking guidance of my advisor, Dr.
