    Introduction - Translation as Interpretation (co-author: F. Camera, Uni Genova)

    No full text
    This brief introduction presents an issue of the journal "Jolma" devoted to the topic of translation, emphasizing that translation becomes an issue, indeed a necessity, when human beings are impacted by the opacity, heterogeneity and historicity of speech acts that bring with them disagreements and misunderstandings, as well as illuminating openings. For idioms are not aseptic verbal instruments; rather, idioms are language and therefore human ways of being-in-the-world; they are practical, culturally determined behaviours within the life-world, that dialogically clash and translate each other until they encounter the boundaries of the shareable. That's why translating is not an occasional task, nor a simple technical remedy for the accidental failure of some speakers to master a foreign language

    Deleuzian Lines: Intersections with Photography and Policy

    No full text
    This paper conceptualizes Deleuzian lines of thought through a photographic installation, “Entry Interrupted.” By exploring a plateau on which literary author F. Scott Fitzgerald, photographer Robert Ulmer, and poststructuralist philosopher Giles Deleuze converge, this paper explores how lines of break, crack, and rupture emanate within educational policy. Here, philosophy and photography illustrate thresholds through which teacher leaders enter educational policy discourse and development
