Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What really happens in a translator's mind when they read a text? What unseen forces shape the choices they make? And why is no translation ever truly neutral or objective?In The Translator's Mind, Bruno Osimo-a renowned author, translator, and translation theorist-invites you on a fascinating journey beyond the surface of words. Moving far beyond the traditional view of translation as a simple "source-to-target" transfer, this groundbreaking work reveals the psychological and semiotic processes that lie at the heart of every translation act.Drawing on the profound insights of thinkers like Charles Sanders Peirce, Sigmund Freud, and Lev Vygotsky, Osimo challenges the notion of the translator as a neutral "black box" or a mere telegraph operator. Instead, he presents the translator as a deeply subjective interpreter, whose personal experiences, unconscious memories, and emotional landscapes inevitably infiltrate and shape the final text.Uncover the Hidden Dimensions of Translation: The Semiotic Web: Learn how every text is a sign to be interpreted, and how the translator's mind creates a "mental translation" long before any words are written on the page.The Language Within: Explore the concept of "inner speech" and discover how the lightning-fast speed of thought is translated into the slower, more structured language of words, revealing the "hypertextual" nature of our mental processes.The Unconscious Influence: Delve into the Freudian and psychoanalytic parallels of translation, understanding how the "primary process" of dream-like association plays a role in drafting a text, while the "secondary process" of revision works to create coherence and cohesion.The Illusion of Objectivity: Uncover the unavoidable "manipulation" that occurs as personal affects, sensations, and idiosyncrasies color every interpretation, making every translation an act of creative, and often unconscious, selection.The Interminable Process: Follow the journey of "unlimited semiosis," where each translation opens the door to endless new interpretations, and reflect on why the decision to finalize a text is, in itself, an arbitrary choice.The Translator's Mind doesn't just theorize-it revolutionizes. It redefines reading and writing as acts of intersemiotic translation, transforming graphic signs into mental material and then back again. It analyzes how translators interpret metaphors, resolve ambiguities, and overcome "automatisms" that can stifle creativity. And crucially, it examines the psychological "defenses" that come into play during revision and criticism, exploring why self-correction can be so difficult and why editors and critics often see a text in completely different ways.Who This Book Is For: Students of Translation: A vital addition to your curriculum that will change how you approach every text.Professional Translators: A profound mirror to your own experience, giving a name and a framework to the subtle psychological processes you navigate daily.Language and Literature Enthusiasts: A captivating exploration of how human psychology and semiotics shape the way we communicate and understand the world.A vital companion to contemporary semiotic and translation studies, The Translator's Mind is not just a book about translation; it is a book about the very nature of thought, communication, and the human mind's capacity to connect across languages and cultures.Unlock the secret life of language. Discover the mind behind the translation.Translation science is going through a preliminary stage of self-definition.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Un'originale esplorazione semiotica dei meccanismi di distorsione che attraversano mente, linguaggio e creazione poetica.Che cosa hanno in comune un errore di traduzione, un pensiero distorto e una metafora poetica? Secondo questo saggio innovativo di Bruno Osimo e Sofia Adelaide Osimo, molto piu di quanto si potrebbe immaginare.Cognitive Distortion, Translation Distortion, and Poetic Distortion as Semiotic Shifts propone un modello unificato per comprendere i processi di trasformazione che avvengono quando la realta viene filtrata dalla mente umana, tradotta in un'altra lingua o trasformata in poesia. Partendo dalla nozione di "shift" (spostamento) propria della critica della traduzione, gli autori estendono questo concetto ai campi della psicologia e della poetica, dimostrando come i tre processi - cognitivo, traduttivo e poetico - condividano una medesima struttura semiotica.Cosa troverai in questo volume: Un quadro teorico originale che applica la griglia di analisi degli shift traduttivi (modello Valutrad) alla cognizione e alla creazione poetica.Una classificazione delle distorsioni suddivisa in tre macro-categorie: distorsioni relazionali (intratesto, intertesto, stile personale, cadenza, deissi, registro), distorsioni della realta (aggiunta, omissione, modulazione, calchi semantici) e distorsioni della conoscenza (presunzione enciclopedica, ancoraggio, focalismo).Un'analisi comparata che esamina ogni categoria di distorsione nei tre ambiti - psicologia, traduttologia e poetica - rivelando sorprendenti analogie e differenze.Un ponte interdisciplinare tra semiotica, psicologia cognitiva, teoria della traduzione e critica letteraria.Perche leggere questo libro: Per studiosi e studenti di semiotica - offre un'applicazione concreta dei concetti peirceani e lotmaniani a problemi reali della comunicazione e della cognizione.Per traduttologi e traduttori - propone una riflessione approfondita sulla natura degli shift traduttivi e sul ruolo del traduttore come mediatore linguistico e culturale.Per psicologi e psicoterapeuti - fornisce una griglia semiotica per comprendere le distorsioni cognitive e i loro meccanismi sottostanti.Per poeti e critici letterari - illumina il rapporto tra creativita poetica e processi mentali, tra devianza linguistica e ricerca espressiva.La tesi centrale: Il volume dimostra che cio che in psicologia e in traduzione e considerato una "distorsione" (qualcosa da correggere o da evitare), in poesia diventa un tratto costitutivo, una caratteristica strutturale del testo. La poesia, in altre parole, abita volutamente il confine tra norma e devianza, tra razionalita ed emozione, tra realta e immaginazione.Gli autori si muovono con disinvoltura tra Charles Sanders Peirce, Jurij Lotman, Roman Jakobson, Lev Vygotskij e Anton Popovic, costruendo un dialogo fecondo tra tradizioni di pensiero spesso tenute separate."Qualsiasi qualita che in traduzione, o in psicologia, e una distorsione, in poesia e un tratto lirico."Questa e la conclusione che emerge dal confronto: la poesia non e un errore di traduzione della realta, ma una forma di traduzione che elegge la distorsione a principio costruttivo.Indice dei contenuti: Premesse teoriche: perche la poesia e un processo traduttivo e la traduzione e un processo mentaleDefinizioni operative di processo traduttivo, distorsione cognitiva e poesiaDistorsioni relazionali: intratesto, intertesto, realia, stile personale, cadenza, deissi, registroDistorsioni della real Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
