EU-High-Level Scientific Conference Series MuTra 2005 – Challenges of Multidimensional Translation : Conference Proceedings Henrik Gottlieb (Copenhagen) Multidimensional Translation: Semantics turned Semiotics Contents 1 Translation: more than just words 2 Textures of translation 3 Taxonomies of translation: Semiotics as perceived 4 Semiotic composition, perception and impact of screen translation 5 Ideals and realities in translation 6 Translation types compared 7 Conclusion: the human factor in translation 8 References Abstract This paper seeks to expand the notion of translation in order to accommodate not only polysemiotic text types, e.g. film and TV, but also nonverbal types of communication. Without denying the importance of the spoken or written word, our aim is to promote a wider, ’multidimensional’ understanding of translation. As a means to that end, conceptual tools are provided for dealing systematically with any type of translation encountered today, by establishing a semiotically-based taxonomy of translation. In addition to the strictly semiotic distinctions between various types of translation, a main distinction is found between inspirational translation (e.g. audio description) and conventionalized translation (subtitling and dubbing, for instance), yielding a total of 30 types of translation. 1 Translation: more than just words Reflecting the ever-increasing communicational output – from cellphone text messages to live multi-media presentations – is the growing need for translation. Mass-media products as well as acts of communication with more limited audiences are being translated in unprecedented numbers, and recent decades have also witnessed a growing scholarly interest in the field of translation. New media require new methods of translation, and audiovisual media, in particular, represent challenges to the translator not known before the invention of sound film back in 1927. But still, what we translate – whether we work as literary translators, interpret at conferences, localize computer software, or subtitle films for DVD – is, basically, words. A primary aim of this paper is to expand the notion of translation in order to accommodate not only the nonverbal channels present in much modern communication, but also the types of communication not involving language in a traditional sense. Although much has been written on translation in recent decades, very few titles (e.g. Poyatos (ed.) 1997; Gambier and Gottlieb (eds) 2001) have been concerned with nonverbal factors in (verbal) translation, let alone nonverbal translation as such. However, it is not my intention to diminish the importance of the spoken or written word, neither in original texts nor in translations. All I wish to accomplish is to contribute to a wider © Copyright 2005-2007 by MuTra 33
