Описание: In the nineteenth century a woman`s place was considered to be in the home. During the Risorgimento and the years following the Unification of Italy in 1861, economic, political and social changes enabled women to engage in pursuits that had previously been the exclusive domain of men. This book traces this shift in cultural perception.

Описание: In this book, Johnston and Mangat consider ways in which particular postcolonial and multicultural literary texts are able to provide a space of cultural mediation for readers from various backgrounds. The studies described in the five chapters of the book explore the spaces of convergence of identity, culture and literature with students and teachers in high school contexts and undergraduates in university settings. In each study, readers are responding to texts that are culturally distant from their own literary and experiential histories. An objective of each study was to consider the nature of the cultural locations of the reader and the text, and the interstitial spaces between these locations. The book interrogates readers’ attempts to negotiate cultural difference in literary contexts and questions how this negotiation requires reading practices traditionally ignored in North American classrooms. The book will offer educators at the secondary and post-secondary levels rich material to draw upon for a rethinking of the school curriculum and will be of interest to scholars of postcolonial and literary studies.

Описание: English Teaching and New Literacies Pedagogy: Interpreting and Authoring Digital Multimedia Narratives is about the fusion of media and narrative, and explores theoretical and practical dimensions of young people’s engagement with contemporary forms of text. It showcases a range of critical interpretative approaches for integrating multimedia narratives into English teaching contexts, including animated films such as Shaun Tan’s The Lost Thing, digital novels such as Inanimate Alice and 5 Haitis, and a virtual treatment of Shakespeare’s Macbeth. English teachers across grade levels will recognize the valuing of literature and will appreciate the practical pedagogy and fostering of creativity as students are encouraged to explore new forms of narrative. In the context of developing expertise in knowing how multimodal texts work, students can apply that knowledge in their own authoring of digital multimedia narratives.

Описание: Adaptations of canonical texts have played an important role throughout the history of children's literature and have been seen as an active and vital contributing force in establishing a common ground for intercultural communication across generations and borders. This collection analyses different examples of adapting canonical texts in or for children's literature encompassing adaptations of English classics for children and young adult readers and intercultural adaptations of children's classics across Europe. The international contributors assess both historical and transcultural adaptation in relation to historically and regionally contingent concepts of childhood. By assessing how texts move across age-specific or national borders, they examine the traces of a common literary and cultural heritage in European children's literature.

Описание: This volume of essays, which originated in the inaugural Dublin Gastronomy Symposium held in the Dublin Institute of Technology in June 2012, offers fascinating insights into the significant role played by gastronomy in Irish literature and culture.
The book opens with an exploration of food in literature, covering figures as varied as Maria Edgeworth, James Joyce, Charles Dickens, Enid Blyton, John McGahern and Sebastian Barry. Other chapters examine culinary practices among the Dublin working classes in the 1950s, offering a stark contrast to the haute cuisine served in the iconic Jammet’s Restaurant; new trends among Ireland’s ‘foodie’ generation; and the economic and tourism possibilities created by the development of a gastronomic nationalism. The volume concludes by looking at the sacramental aspects of the production and consumption of Guinness and examining the place where it is most often consumed: the Irish pub.

Описание: Este nuevo estudio del grupo BITRAGA completa el analisis sobre los flujos de traduccion (Traduccion de una cultura emergente, Peter Lang 2012). Aborda la importacion de la literatura extranjera y su incidencia en la cultura receptora. A partir de los datos del Catalogo da Traducion Galega se analizan las obras, los generos, las autorias, las combinaciones linguisticas, asi como las medidas institucionales de apoyo, el comportamiento de las personas que traducen y las tendencias historicas del fenomeno traductivo. Los datos construyen la reflexion traductologica y contribuyen a ponderar la importancia de la literatura extranjera en el desarrollo de una cultura en pie de igualdad con la creacion. De este modo, el ensayo cientifico conjuga el enfoque traductologico con el de la critica literaria. El estudio de las practicas de importacion permite visibilizar las estrategias mediante las cuales determinadas culturas ofrecen cierta resistencia a la hegemonia del mercado. El volumen cierra asi un circulo en el que se constata de forma cuantitativa y cualitativa la incidencia que han tenido los intercambios literarios en la fase de consolidacion de la literatura gallega contemporanea.

Описание: En las tres ultimas decadas la Traductologia centra su atencion en la relacion entre culturas, representadas por los grandes sistemas literarios. Al tiempo, una cultura minorizada casi milenaria multiplica exponencialmente sus relaciones literarias mediante la traduccion. En esta obra se analiza la traduccion en la cultura gallega desde un enfoque sociologico, se determina el papel de los actantes en el proceso y se aplican los conceptos de «actor-red» y de «laboratorio». La relacion se entiende como estrategia, resistencia, conflicto, tension y lucha que las autoras identifican en una cultura emergente. En la obra se buscan respuestas a preguntas como: ?Como se promociona y distribuye la literatura gallega en el exterior? ?Cual es su acogida en el extranjero? ?Como repercute en la afirmacion cultural? Mas alla de especulaciones, las autoras precisan que quieren medir, buscan los parametros y disenan como hacerlo. Presentan las herramientas de analisis creadas ad hoc y analizan los datos a traves de ejemplos (laboratorio). Esta materia prima permite ofrecer una informacion novedosa, fiable y con posibilidades de aplicacion en otras culturas.
