Descriere Translation and Transmediation of Shakespeares plays - Alexandra-Stefania Tiulescu

Describing the trans- and interdisciplinary methodological framework the author makes reference to the hybridization between the source and target text a phenomenon that we can recognise thus validating the research hypothesis and the property of the term in the entire contemporary reception of Shakespeare s plays. Regarding the importance that the translator should give to language in the specific socio-cultural context the author describes not only a trend in literary translation but also a feature of contemporary literary criticism and theory which has operated in recent decades a visible shift of emphasis from the text and its aesthetic appreciation towards the context the almost infinite range of cultural social political religious ideological mechanisms mentalities which makes a literary text or a work of art a product of its age. Professor habil. Dana Percec West University of Timisoara The book underpins an extremely complex scientific analysis in which the author emphasises the need for a theoretical and practical approach to the activity of translation and subtitling addressing the readers or spectators of William Shakespeare s plays. It is built along substantive research directions such as detailing the process by which a translator can obtain a version as close as possible to its ideal version demonstrating the literary value of subtitling and arguing in what way audio-visual translation can enable closeness between the spectator as a non-initiated reader and the literary works that are essential and sufficient to feature a cultivated reader. Associate Professor Adrian Radu Babes-Bolyai University of Cluj-Napoca We totally agree with the conclusion reached by the author namely that the translator of Shakespeare s plays into Romanian bears a huge responsibility that of eliminating cultural differences as much as possible and of providing a version as close as possible to the original meaning while not altering the artistic quality of the text the rhythm and musicality of the language.
