Η απόδοση στα ελληνικά του τίτλου του μυθιστορήματος "Il Visconte Dimezzato" στην τριλογία "Οι Πρόγονοί μας" του Italo Calvino
No full textΌπως προκύπτει από το βιβλίο της Ζώζης Ζωγραφίδου Η παρουσία της ιταλικής λογοτεχνίας στην Ελλάδα (Ζωγραφίδου, 1999: 83-85) (στο βιβλίο καταγράφονται οι μεταφράσεις έργων της ιταλικής λογοτεχνίας στην Ελλάδα, από το 1900 έως το 1990), στη δεκαετία του ’80, παρατηρείται άνθηση των μεταφράσεων και υπάρχει έντονη μεταφραστική δραστηριότητα από τους εκδοτικούς οίκους Οδυσσέας, Ζαχαρόπουλος και Αστάρτη. Ο Οδυσσέας, επικεντρώνεται ειδικότερα σε έργα ιταλικής λογοτεχνίας (Ζωγραφίδου, 1999: 83-85). Στην παρούσα μελέτη αναλύεται η απόδοση στην ελληνική γλώσσα του τίτλου του μυθιστορήματος Il Visconte Dimezzato του Italo Calvino που συμπεριλαμβάνεται στην τριλογία Οι Πρόγονοι μας. Η πρώτη μετάφραση του συγκεκριμένου μυθιστορήματος πραγματοποιήθηκε από τη Ρούλα Στράτου (1981), η οποία αποφάσισε να δώσει τον τίτλο Ο Διχασμένος Υποκόμης. Η αναμετάφραση πραγματοποιήθηκε από τον Θεόδωρο Ιωαννίδη (2010), ο οποίος αποφάσισε να δώσει τον τίτλο Ο Διχοτομημένος Υποκόμης. Ο λόγος που πραγματοποιήθηκε η παρούσα μελέτη, είναι ότι παρουσιάζει ιδιαίτερο ενδιαφέρον το γεγονός ότι οι δύο μεταφραστές του μυθιστορήματος, αποδίδουν διαφορετικά τον τίτλο στα ελληνικά, βάσει της δικής τους ερμηνείας
Disrupting Eating Spaces in Isak Dinesen’s 'Babette’s Feast'
No full textUp until recently, the bilingual tales of Danish author Isak Dinesen have been critically appreciated and discussed mostly in relation to their narrative complexity and dramatic theatricality. Focusing on her well-known story “Babette’s Feast”, this essay draws on Jacques Derrida’s understanding of supplementarity, on feminist insights into embodiment and recent new materialist theories to address, instead, the place of enfleshed materiality in her revisionist articulations of gender and community. It calls attention to how food, as live matter, impacts through the organic process of eating, the subject’s movement in and perception of physical, social and gender spaces, contributing thus to recent scholarly engagement with the significance of corporeality and material agency for her fictions’ sexual and cultural politics. Implicit in her re-assertion of the material, as it is argued, is Dinesen’s sharp critique of the Protestant valorisation of spirit over matter and the masculinist assumptions built into this spatial configuration
Sound Design and Audiovisual Memory in the Instantiation of Digital Game Worlds: An Essay on Iconophonics
No full textThe article approaches the relationship between design, memory and technoculture through a conceptual discussion of audiovisual culture and the techno-aesthetic expressions of sound design in digital games. Hence, instead of describing it for its technical aspects, sound design is more broadly framed here as a technocultural practice deeply related to an audiovisual memory of media. The paper also presents the concept of iconophonics, by articulating this theoretical framework with an analysis of sound design features in five digital games: Jazzpunk (2014), Rayman: Legends (2011), South Park: Stick of Truth (2014), Inside (2016) and Spec Ops: The Line (2012)
The Emergence of School Podcasting in Times of Crisis: A Case Study of a Preschool Podcast during COVID-19
No full textPodcasts are a growing medium in continuing education and could be seen as a “parallel and informal higher educational system” (Shamburg 711). Even in kindergarten, podcasting constitutes a colorful creative process, ideal for the very young child who at this stage is developing both mentally and emotionally. The podcaster serves as a role model for young children and is also a figure they can connect to deeply and empathetically (Τheodosiadou, “Podcasting and Media Literacy”). Furthermore, the global coronavirus pandemic and resulting lockdown added new resonance to podcasts in the education field, and 2020 may be remembered “in history as the year of podcast teaching, and/or podcast learning” (Wake, Fox, and Strong, 30). This paper aims to map the growing significance of school podcasting as an empowering genre for very young children. A critical discourse analysis of four hours of a preschool podcast titled Perispomeni, as well as an ethnographic interview with the teacher-podcaster, highlights the way podcasts work to keep the relationships between the students and the school strong, as well as being a place of reference for children during difficult times, such as the pandemic
Parental linguistic input and language development in a Greek-speaking child with ASD: Results from a naturalistic intervention approach
No full textParental input is a critical factor in language development not only in for typically developing children but also in for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The aim of the intervention study presented here was twofold: a) to explore the grammatical characteristics of parental input in the case of a minimally verbal Greek-speaking child with ASD, and b) to examine changes in the verbal and non-verbal behaviour of the child. The findings indicate that parents need training on how to communicate with their child and that parent-child communication can benefit significantly from targeted language intervention programs
SLA and LCR synergies: Focusing on gender
No full textThe paper presents the results of a study on the acquisition of grammatical gender in the context of second language acquisition (SLA). Drawing from 196 written productions by adult Russian learners of Greek, this research explores the influence of the mother tongue (L1) in both lexical and syntactic dimensions. The data is sourced from the Greek Learner Corpus II (GLCII) and the findings are juxtaposed with those from a previous experimental study with a comparable design. By converging our methodologies, we elucidate the roles of both implicit and explicit grammar awareness and their influence on learner performance
Mining formulaicity in Greek Learner Corpus ΙΙ
No full textThis paper aims to present a methodology for extracting, analyzing and exploring both quantitatively and quantitatively Formulaic Speech, as this is annotated in the written productions of L2 Greek learners in the recently compiled Greek Learner Corpus II (GLCII)[1]. Through the implementation of one of the most relevant measures of association called Lexical Gravity (Daudaravičius Marcinkevičienė, 2004) collocations and by extension collocational chains of different lengths are extracted. Overall, the proportion of Formulaic Speech in second/foreign language is traced, a quantitative analysis of the extracted n-grams is presented and possible correlations between the occurrences of formulaic speech and various learners’ metadata are presented.[1] GLC is compiled within the framework of the research project Latent Aspects in L2 Acquisition. The research work was supported by the Hellenic Foundation for Research and Innovation (H.F.R.I.) (https://www.elidek.gr/en/call/6489/) under the “First Call for H.F.R.I. Research Projects to support Faculty members and Researchers and the procurement of high-cost research equipment grant” (Project Number: 3161)
Aribert Reimann’s and Mikis Theodorakis’ Opera Medea: Euripidean Medea Crossing Borders
No full textThis paper investigates two relatively recent adaptations of Medea’s myth by Aribert Reimann and Mikis Theodorakis for opera, in an attempt to find out the convergent and the divergent elements employed by the two composers who come from different cultural and music environments. The transformation of the dramatic text into the libretto in each case constitutes the central research question of the paper. On the one hand, it reveals the specific music-dramaturgical choices made, and on the other, it enlightens the way the two composers conceptualize musically the dramatic text. Moreover, the paper focuses on how the central dramaturgical motifs of the libretto are reflected through music. It will ultimately attempt to investigate, through the specific operatic works of the aforementioned composers, the path the myth of Medea has followed crossing diachronic and cultural borders from Euripides till our days
Hellenic Music across Borders during Geopolitical Relocations in the Balkans: Basile Gounaropoulos and the Hellenic Community of Varna
No full textNorthern Thrace was one of the primary financial centers of the Ottoman Empire in the 19th century. Hellenic communities in the region formed a financially robust urban class through handcrafted and industrialized production, commerce, and transportation. This economic power subsequently led to cultural growth. Especially in Varna, at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, numerous cultural associations operated by the Hellenic Community. Many of them had bands that gave concerts and participated in festivities, theatrical performances, and dances. Their repertoire included works of classical music, as well as folk songs. In the multicultural environment of Varna, the Hellenic community tried to establish itself by cultivating Hellenic education with the help of Athens and Constantinople.Basile Gounaropoulos contributed to the utmost in this “under cultural formation” environment. He studied in his homeland primarily and then at Athens Conservatoire. He became a music teacher in schools, and chanter in churches of the Hellenic Community of Varna, but also worked as a banker and editor of the daily press. As a composer, he published along with his compatriot, Themistoklis Theofanis, a music education handbook. His works were published in Varna and Constantinople. He also directed the Choir of the Varna Philharmonic Association. During nationalist riots in northern Thrace in the decade 1906-1916 Hellenic communities were exterminated. Gounaropoulos fled to Athens as a refugee. Sadly, he was killed during the period of the Hellenic National Schism. Balkan wars and the First World War had left their permanent mark on the Balkan Peninsula
