The Dao of Translation: An East-West Dialogue
ISBN: 9781138846562 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Dao of Translation sets up an East-West dialogue on the nature of language and translation, and specifically on the "unknown forces" that shape the act of translation. To that end it mobilizes two radically different readings of the Daodejing (formerly romanized as the Tao Te Ching): the traditional "mystical" reading according to which the Dao is a mysterious force that cannot be known, and a more recent reading put forward by Sinologists Roger T. Ames and David L. Hall, to the effect that the Dao is simply the way things happen. Key to Ames and Hall's reading...

Performative Linguistics: Speaking and Translating as Doing Things with Words
ISBN: 9780415753999 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this book, Douglas Robinson introduces a new distinction between 'constative' and 'performative' linguistics, arguing that Austin's distinction can be used to understand linguistic methodologies. Constative linguistics, Robinson suggests, includes methodologies aimed at 'freezing' language as an abstract sign system, while performative linguistics explores how language is used or 'performed' in those speech situations. Robinson then tests his hypothesis on the act of translation. Drawing on a range of language scholars and theorists, Performative Linguistics consolidates the many disparate...

The Deep Ecology of Rhetoric in Mencius and Aristotle: A Somatic Guide
ISBN: 9781438461069 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 337 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Mencius (385-303/302 BCE) and Aristotle (384-322 BCE) were contemporaries, but are often understood to represent opposite ends of the philosophical spectrum. Mencius is associated with the ecological, emergent, flowing, and connected; Artistotle with the rational, static, abstract, and binary. Douglas Robinson argues that in their conceptions of rhetoric, at least, Mencius and Aristotle are much more similar than different: both are powerfully socio-ecological, espousing and exploring collectivist thinking about the circulation of energy and social value through groups. The agent performing...

From the time of the first written sacred texts in the West, taboo has proscribed the act and art of translation.
