Avenues of Translation

Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Avenues of Translation

Winner of the 2020 SAMLA Studies Book Award — Edited Collection Cities both near and far communicate in a variety of ways. Travel between, through, and among urban centers initiates contact, and cities themselves are sites of ever-changing cultural and historical encounters. Predictable and surprising challenges and opportunities arise when city borders are crossed, voices meet, and artistic traditions find their counterparts. Using the Latin word for “translation,” translatio, or “to carry across,” as a point of departure, Avenues of Translation explores how translation perpetuates, diversifies, deepens, and expands the literary production of cities in their greater cultural context, and how translation shapes an understanding of and access to a city's past and present literary and cultural practices. Thinking about translation and the city is a way to tell the backstories of the cities, texts, and authors that are united by acts of translation. Published by Bucknell University Press. Distributed worldwide by Rutgers University Press.

Libro Arquitectura, naturaleza y diseño

Estos apuntes no son para ninguna materia en especial. Comenzaron como un ayuda-memoria para seguir o pautar una clase. Están desordenados, porque solamente se quisieron volcar algunas ideas básicas que permitiesen ir desarrollando el hilo del pensamiento. Por lo tanto, los conceptos son muy incompletos, algunas ideas deberían desarrollarse más para ser mejor comprendidas. Pero como toda cosa que se debe sintetizar para escribir, sola se fue acomodando para dejar entrever algunos conceptos más importantes. Casi todas las entradas fueron escritas y graficadas confiando en la memoria, y en ...
