Preserving Femininity in Translation
ISBN: 9783838308340 / Angielski / Miękka / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1993, a dispute arose in the French literary press concerning the merits of the two French translations of Virginia Woolf's "The Waves," a translation by Marguerite Yourcenar, and a second version by Cecile Wajsbrot. Kathleen Shields explains that a critic had accused Wajsbrot of having rendered Woolf incomprehensible to the French reader. This is connected to the fact that, according to feminist translation scholars, the deletion of significant elements in key texts by women writers is a recurrent tendency. This, together with the latest trends in translation studies since the 1980's,...

The implicit grammar explanation reject the need for formal grammar analysis. Researchers argue that students can acquire language naturally if they are provided with sufficient...

Oral Development of Language Proficiency in Expository Presentations
ISBN: 9783838352312 / Angielski / Miękka / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Processing theories (Clahsen, 1984; Pienemann, 1997) have argued that the production of subordinate clauses is the last stage in the development of the second language learner. However, these theories did not refer to the relation between proficiency level and the production of complex syntax. Thus, more knowledge is required about the development of frequency and accuracy of complex syntax in EFL learners, and the relation between this development and proficiency level. Moreover, both second language and first language research (i.e. Salaberry& Lopez-Ortega, 1998) have revealed the impact of...
