  • Found in Translation
    Found in Translation European children's fiction translated into English J. K. Rowling, Roald Dahl, Philip Pullman, Lewis Carroll, A. A. Milne, Julia Donaldson, Jacqueline Wilson… We’re fortunate in the UK to have so many great books for children to enjoy, created in English by writers from within these shores and abroad. So it's easy to forget the long tradition of equally wonderful children’s stories that come from mainland Europe and originally penned in other languages. Just think of Hans Christian Andersen, the Brothers Grimm and some of the names you’ll see on this list like Tove Jansson, Herge, Erich Kastner and Astrid Lindgren. This list, compiled to coincide with our promotion of European writing for children, offers a snapshot of fiction originally written by authors in another European language then translated into English. “Translated” is the key word here as it explains why some seemingly obvious names for inclusion are missing, such as Austria-Hungary born Ludwig Bemelmans, whose Madeline books were originally written in English, not in his native German, and French author Clementine Beauvais, whose work crosses the ages from 0-16 but writes so much of her work in English. The 70 titles here provide not only a mix across ages and countries, but show author versatility, different genres and formats, all-time classics (and potential future ones), plus some titles which, while familiar to the reader, may reveal a bit of a surprise. So, there’s the all-time classic Heidi first published in 1880 alongside potential future classics such as Magritte’s Apple.

By comparing three East-Berlin films with three thematically and chronologically corresponding West-Berlin films, this thesis investigates how cinema corresponded to the changing concepts in modernist architecture on the two sides of the wall. Whereas a competition between two world powers is carried out on a semiotic field condensing cultural, social, technological, and economic achievements - the city - this thesis shows that the diverging styles of government were struggling with similar possibilities and limitations in shaping their sections of Berlin. As opposed to Cold War films, the spatial analyses of post-Wende films show striking divergences.

  • Babar Has Come to England: Classic European Children’S Literature in Translation
    Classics Babar has come to England: Classic European Children’s Literature in Translation Edgardo Zaghini Children’s literature in translation enriches our lives because it provides a glimpse into the experiences and way of life of children from different parts of the world. It offers the opportunity to travel, in our imagination, to far away places and to learn about other cultures. The tradition of translating literature for children has a long history, particularly in Europe, and this article will show some of the major contributions that they have made. Germany has provided us with outstanding classic works of literature. The Nutcracker by E.T.A. Hoffman first appeared in German in 1816 – a story about nursery toys battling against a mouse army and the Nutcracker prince who has been enchanted by a mouse sorcerer. One of the best editions so far is the one illustrated by Italian artist, Roberto Innocenti. The Fairy Tales of the brothers Grimm are some of the best-known tales in translation – Rapunzel, The Frog Prince, Hansel and Gretel, Rumpelstiltskin are just a few of the tales which started to appear in the German language from 1822. Since then there have been innumerable collections and editions of Grimm fairy tales in many languages. Struwwelpeter, by Dr Heinrich Hoffmann, was first published in translation in 1848. It is a cautionary tale, highly educational and moralistic in content and with gruesome illustrations that caused uproar among contemporary readers at the time. Wilhelm Busch’s Max and Moritz (1865), a comic poem about two young pranksters who play tricks on the village people, can be considered the ancestor of modern comics.
