授業の内容や構成
Course Content / Plan | | In the first half of this course, participants will read and discuss essays about translation, including those written by Walter Benjamin and Eugene Nida. In the second half, we will read and discuss some of the works that utilize translation by poets and writers in the Modernist tradition, such as Ezra Pound and Basil Bunting.
Every week participants will be assigned reading materials shown in the class schedule (to be given in the first meeting of the class). One participant will be selected as the designated commentator for a particular text. He or she will write a comment paper about the assigned text and post it on the NUCT website one day before the meeting of the class. The other participants will read the assigned texts and the comment paper posted by the designated commentator before coming to the classroom. In the classroom the designated commentator will introduce the author and the background of the text, give its summary and start a discussion by presenting his/her comments orally. |
