La traducción de los derivados diminutivos lituanos en las versiones inglesas y española de Las estaciones del año, de Kristijonas Donelaitis

Carmen Caro Dugo

Abstract: En el presente estudio se examina la traducción de un importante elemento estilístico del lituano: los sufijos diminutivos y sus derivados. La traducción de los significados denotados por estos sufijos es un reto, especialmente cuando se traduce a idiomas que no cuentan con tal variedad de sufijos o utilizan mucho menos este recurso morfológico. El estudio incluye un análisis de la versión española de la primera parte del poema Las estaciones del año, de K. Donelaitis (traducción de Carmen Caro Dugo, 2013), as… Show more

Lenguas, literaturas y nacionalidades en Lituania (y en el Báltico oriental)1 PIETRO U. DINI Abstract. Languages, literatures and nationalities in Lithunia (and in the East Baltic region). This article's focus is on Lithuania and its literature, but many considerations contained in it are also valid for the whole East Baltic cultural region.A preliminary distinction is made inside Lithuanian literature between Ortsgebundenheit and Sprachgebundenheit, in order to show and discuss the strong multilingualism which has characterized the Baltic region already in an early period. A short excursus follows, pointing out the possible importance the "national literary model" could have had in different epochs.Similarities with the situation in Latvia and Estonia, but also with other central European countries, are stressed concerning the delay in building sovereign states; a parallel is drawn especially with Catalonia. The importance and the role played by the language in all these cases is underlined and commented on. Other considerations regard the literature in exile and the new literary tendencies that have emerged after the identity protest movement at the end of the 1980s which led to the declaration(s) of independence.Finally, general thoughts are expressed concerning the concept of "national literature" in the case of countries whose history has been characterized by an intermittence of sovereignty (the case of the Baltic countries), and for other longer-established European countries. The supporters of Weltliteratur normally completely neglect these aspects. In the author's mind, however, they also should be attentively considered. Bolonia, Il Mulino, 2014, pp. 195-220).

The Equivalents of the Verbs of Activity in the Spanish Translation of “Metai” (“The Seasons”) by Kristijonas Donelaitis

The equivalence of translation has become a concern for many Lithuanian researchers. The term equivalence is described in the monograph “Contrastive Semantics” (2007) by AloyzasGudavičius. LionginasPažūsis (2014) discusses problems that arise from the lack of equivalence at word level. There are many articles on approaches or strategies of equivalence (D. Masaitienė 1996; A. Leonavičienė 2010; L. Černiuvienė 2013). Some scholars choose to examine the strategies applied in the translation of some linguistic items in novels (V. Končius& A. Nausėda 2006; C. Caro Dugo 2010, 2014, 2015, 2016; A. Cerri; I. Janavičienė 2016). However, there is a lack of research that analyses the Spanish translation of the poem “Metai” or a particular linguistic aspect of this Spanish text. Recent years saw several attempts to fill this gap(C. Caro Dugo 2014, 2015, 2016; A. Cerri 2015). The current research aims to examine the equivalents of the verbs of activity (VAs) in the Spanish translation of the poem. The paper focuses only on those VAs that express actions performed by persons. The VAs which denote actions performed by other living beings or forces of nature were excluded. The research covers 52 verses with verbs of activity, selected from the poem, and their equivalents in the translation into Spanish, which are subjected to qualitative content analysis and means ofcomparative methodology. 52 constructions that express the concepts of Work, Damaging, Speakon topic, Motion, Ingestion and Entertainment were selected applying the qualitative content analysis. The Spanish equivalents of these constructions are examined through the comparative methodology. The obtained results indicated that the translator is faithful to the original text. In order to preserve the expressiveness of the poem, the Spanish translation uses an abundance of verbal lexemes. It was noticed that the equivalents of the same meaning or verbs with a more general meaning specified by an additional lexeme or construction were the main strategies adopted in VA translation into Spanish. In one case only was a Lithuanian verb changed into a Spanish noun. Idioms and figurative words were also chosen as a VA translation strategy in several instances. Nonetheless, all of these lexemes, as derivative of verbs or verbal forms, preserve the verbal nature.This workshould be useful tothe semanticists and translators.

“¿Y hoy quíago? / Oh Lor, what’ll I do now?”: traducción al inglés de los rasgos orales de Cuentos del tío Lino

El objetivo de este artículo es analizar cómo se tradujeron al inglés los rasgos orales del willakuy en Cuentos del tío Lino desde una perspectiva pragmática. El objeto de estudio es la duodécima edición de la obra Cuentos del tío Lino publicada en 2016 por Lluvia Editores. Esta recopilación de cuentos de tradición oral retrata en la escritura la memoria colectiva de Contumazá mediante un estilo que transmite la cosmovisión andina, evoca la performance del willakuy y recrea el habla popular andina originado por el contacto del español con el quechua. El análisis comparativo demuestra que el estilo original cambia en el texto meta porque el uso de estructuras normativas y propias del lenguaje escrito convierte la traducción en un texto estandarizado que prioriza la legibilidad. Esta estandarización elimina la representación de la performatividad del willakuy y la función estética del texto fuente.
