Synedoche and Translation

Simultaneous translation is used as the basis for a study of the transmission of meaning in the process of translation and in that of oral communication. The fact that most utterances give only a hint of an idea to express the entire thought is the foundation of the study. (Text is in French.) (AMH)

Lost in Translation: EU Law & The Official Languages

By Andrej Glézl

"This article deals with the problem of interpretation of Community2 law from the perspective of the

language in which the relevant source of Community law3 is expressed. The first part of the article

defines the legal basis causing the problem in interpretation of Community law, which is caused by

the fact that it is expressed in many languages, all of which are official and legal instruments

expressed in them are deemed to be authentic."

Heidegger and Translation Studies

ZISSELSBERGER Markus , The Claim and Use of Language in Translation : Heidegger (and) Übersetzen

Résumé / Abstract

Starting from the premise that what calls for and happens in the work and thinking of translation is inseparable from the experience of reading Heidegger's philosophy, this article suggests that translation in Heidegger's work is a philosophical problem fundamentally implicated in the thinking of Being. The article first examines Heidegger's distinction between Übersetzen-a form of translation that seeks correspondences between words of different languages, and Übersetzen-a translation within one's own language that seeks to respond to the "claim" of language itself. The second part of the article links translation with Heidegger's later reflections on language in Unterwegs zur Sprache, arguing that what is at stake in the work of translation is a thinking of our relation to language. Focusing on the notion of "usage/Brauch", it concludes with the suggestion that insofar as thinking translation according to (and with) Heidegger requires a"response"to the claim of language,it also calls for a more sustained engagement with the question of how the human is claimed and used by language.
