Abstract

The author turns his eye on the subject of translations and the problems the differences between cultures can cause. Fired by Eco's immense wit and erudition, this is an intriguing read that explores why a rat is sometimes a mouse, bachelors are a problem and where you can find "the plants of Shakespeare". - 'Translation is always a shift,not between two languages but between two cultures. A translator must take into account rules that are not strictly linguistic but, broadly speaking, cultural.' Umberto Eco is of the world's most brilliant and entertaining writers on literature and language. In this accessible and dazzling study, he turns his eye on the subject of translations and the problems the differences between cultures can cause. The book is full of little gems about mistranslations and misunderstandings. For example when you put 'Studies in the logic of Charles Sanders Peirce' through an internet translation machine, it becomes 'Studies in the logic of the Charles of sandpaper grinding machines Peirce'. In Italian 'ratto' has no connotation of 'contemptible person' but denotes speed ('you dirty rat' could take on a whole new meaning!) What could be a weighty subject is never dull, fired by Eco's immense wit and erudition, providing an entertaining read that illuminates the process of negotation that all translators must make.

Abstract

Der Begriff "kulturelle Differenz" provoziert und löst nicht erst seit Huntingtons umstrittenen Kulturkampfthesen kontroverse Diskussionen aus. Als soziale Tatsache ruft kulturelle Differenz je nach Akteursinteresse, Situation und gesellschaftlicher Rahmung unterschiedliche Wirkungen hervor. Den einen geht es vor allem um die Konstruktion kultureller Grenzziehung, den anderen eher um die Erforschung der sozialen und kulturellen Folgeerscheinungen. Die einen betonen das kreative Potential kultureller Differenz, die anderen nehmen vor allem die Vorurteilsproblematik und die Gefahr rassistischer Ausgrenzung in den Blick. Die Autoren in diesem Band gehen jenseits einseitiger Festlegungen empirisch fundiert, aus interkultureller Perspektive und auf der Basis unterschiedlicher Wissenschaftsdisziplinen der Frage nach, wie kulturelle Differenz in alltäglichen Handlungskontexten wie auch in wissenschaftlichen Diskursen konzeptualisiert wird. Die Beiträge eröffnen neue Perspektiven auf den Diskurs um kulturelle Differenz.
