Milton in Translation de Angelica Duran

Milton in Translation

Editat de Angelica Duran, Islam Issa, Jonathan R. Olson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 iul 2017

Acest volum colectiv, publicat de OUP OXFORD, reprezintă o monografie de referință ce documentează recepția internațională a lui John Milton din secolul al XVII-lea până în prezent. Observăm aici o colaborare fără precedent între cercetători consacrați și practicieni ai traducerii, menită să cartografieze modul în care poezia și proza miltoniană au depășit barierele lingvistice și culturale. Structura este riguros organizată: după o primă parte teoretică despre natura aurală a versurilor sale, lucrarea analizează succesiv traducerile influente (engleză, latină, germană, franceză), urmate de studii detaliate pe grupuri geografice, de la spațiul est-european la cel est-asiatic.

Descoperim în paginile acestui volum o analiză a modului în care Milton a fost adaptat în limbi precum estona, maghiara, persana sau japoneza, fiecare capitol oferind un studiu de caz aplicat. Cititorii familiarizați cu Milton Across Borders and Media de Islam Issa vor aprecia continuitatea cercetării, acest volum adâncind componenta strict lingvistică și procesul de transfer textual, spre deosebire de abordarea multimedia a lucrării anterioare. De asemenea, față de Milton's Languages de John K. Hale, care se concentrează pe multilingvismul autorului în procesul de creație, Milton in Translation mută focusul pe viața ulterioară a operelor în mâinile traducătorilor globali.

Tonul studiilor este academic și precis, oferind context critic pentru fiecare zonă lingvistică. Angelica Duran își continuă aici proiectul de cercetare a circulației ideilor renascentiste, integrând perspectivele din Milton Among Spaniards într-un cadru global mult mai vast. Această ediție paperback, de peste 500 de pagini, devine astfel un instrument indispensabil pentru înțelegerea impactului cultural al lui Milton dincolo de canonul anglo-saxon.

Descriere

Milton in Translation represents an unprecedented collaboration that demonstrates the breadth of John Milton's international reception, from the seventeenth century through today. This book collects in one volume new essays written on the translation of Milton's works written by an international roster of experts: stalwart and career-long Miltonists, scholars primarily of translation studies, and practitioners who have translated Milton's works. Chapters are grouped geographically but also, by and large, chronologically, given that Milton's works radiated further abroad over time. The chapters on the twenty-three individual languages showcased in this volume are framed by 'Part I: Approaches', consisting of an introduction and two major essays on the global reach and the aural nature of Milton's poetry, and by an epilogue. 'Part II: Influential Translations' features the most influential languages in translations of Milton's works (English, Latin, German, French). Then, accounts of Milton's afterlives in specific languages are provided in 'Part III. Western European and Latin American Translations' (Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, Icelandic, Italian, Portuguese, European Spanish, Latin American Spanish), 'Part IV: Central and Eastern European Translations' (Bulgarian, Czech, Hungarian, Polish, Serbian/Montenegrin, Serbo-Croatian languages), 'Part V: Middle Eastern Translations' (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian), and 'Part VI: East Asian Translations' (Chinese, Japanese, Korean). The chapters in Parts II through VI include historical and critical context, a brief history of translation in the language, and a case study on any single work or group of Milton's works in translation.

Recenzii

Winner of the Milton Society of America's Irene Samuel Memorial Award (2017)
[Milton in Translation] is important for bringing to notice the existence of over 300 translations of Milton into ?fty-seven languages, and the fact that there have been more such translations in the last thirty years than the preceding 300. It is fascinating to read, across a number of essays, of Milton's appropriation as a revolutionary in, for example, the Protestant colonies of North America (Thomas N. Corns), the Catholic colonies of postindependence Latin America (Mario Murgia), and in both Maoist and contemporary China (Bing Yan).
What Angelica Duran, Islam Issa, and Jonathan R. Olson have put together for Milton in Translation proves that translation continues to serve an important role in the interpretation of literature. Duran, Issa, and Olson also make an important contribution to Milton studies, despite the exhaustive corpus of literary studies devoted to John Milton's work ... Overall, the editors and contributors provide an engaging look at Milton studies through translation studies and a text that will appeal to scholars and students in both areas.
The volume creates an impressive panopticon of the diversity of target-language-specific reformulations of Milton's epic vision ... this [is a] marvelous insightful, and truly pioneering volume.
[Milton] would have approved of Milton in Translation...In total, twenty-three languages are represented in this fascinating volume, including Chinese, Korean, Bulgarian, Czech, Serbo-Croatian and the Finno-Ugric languages.
Fifty years ago, William Riley Parker opined that 'A good book on the translating of Milton into other languages (and his influence on other literatures) is long overdue.' Here is that book, appearing close to the 350th anniversary of the first appearance of Paradise Lost.
Milton in Translation (2017) offers an expansive and novel study of the global reach of John Milton through translations into twenty-three languages, bringing together a wealth of knowledge by a wide variety of specialists in their respective fields. Ranging from western Europe to Asia and the Americas, the volume strives to be as inclusive as possible. Given the rising interest in the combined approach of translation and literary studies, this volume demonstrates the potential fruitfulness of such research in both a historical and a more contemporary context.
This is an important collection of essays on the wide range of translations that have been made of Milton's works, encompassing several centuries of publication...The sheer number of translations that the collection manages to catalogue is breathtaking, ranging over the major European languages, through Latin and Hebrew, as well as noting cultural reception from South America to Asia...one can imagine Milton would have approved of the demonstration of this global engagement with his work.
A particularly important collection of essays...As a whole, this volume is a towering accomplishment, one whose numerous chapters provide a truly enriching education in Milton's presence across cultures and languages, offering in the process valuable dimensions of the many intellectual and cultural histories that have intersected with the dissemination of Milton's writings within numerous languages, regions, and countries...I recommend it highly as a watershed accomplishment for scholarship concerned with Milton's international reception.
