Translating Japanese Texts

Translating Japanese Texts


Translating Japanese Texts is a practical textbook and a precise introduction to problems of, and strategies for, translating Japanese texts. The book is designed for both students and teachers of translation, as well as professional translators. The theoretical foundation is that texts are created by means of interplay between different levels of linguistic material and pragmatic, cognitive, and cultural mechanisms. The book points out that all translation should hence take such factors into consideration. It focuses on Japanese and English and highlights systematic differences between these two languages, but it will also be useful when translating Japanese into other languages, as well as for translation in general. The book will be of interest not only for students and professionals of translation and language studies, but also for people generally interested in Asian languages, cultures, and worlds of thought, all seen through the lens of translation from Japanese into English.

Woman Critiqued: Translated Essays on Japanese Women's Writing

Woman Critiqued: Translated Essays on Japanese Women's Writing


Over the past thirty years translations of Japanese women’s writing and biographies of women writers have enriched and expanded our understanding of modern Japanese literature. But how have women writers been received and read in Japan? To appreciate the subterfuges, strategies, and choices that the modern Japanese woman writer has faced, readers must consider the criticisms leveled against her, the expectations and admonitions that have been whispered in her ear, and pay attention to the way she herself has responded. What did it mean to be a woman writer in twentieth-century Japan? How was she defined and how did this definition limit her artistic sphere?Woman Critiqued builds on existing scholarship by offering English-language readers access to some of the more salient critiques that have been directed at women writers, on the one hand, and reactions to these by women writers, on the other. The grouping of the essays into chapters organized by theme clarifies how the discussion in Japan has been framed by certain assumptions and how women have repeatedly tried to intervene by playing with, undercutting, or attempting to exceed these assumptions. Chapter introductions contextualize the translated essays historically and draw out aspects that warrant particular scrutiny or explication.Although the translators do not cover all aspects or genres identified with women’s literary endeavors in the twentieth-century, they provide a significant understanding of the evaluative systems under which Japanese women writers have worked. Woman Critiqued will be eagerly read by specialists in modern Japanese literature and those interested in comparative literature, women’s studies, gender studies, and history.

Rise, Ye Sea Slugs!

Rise, Ye Sea Slugs!


Rise, Ye Sea Slugs! is a book of many faces. (1) It is a book of translated haiku and contains over 900 of these short Japanese poems in the original (smoothly inserted in the main body), with phonetic and literal renditions, as well as the author’s English translations and explanations. All but a dozen or two of the haiku are translated for the first time. There is an index of poets, poems and a bibliography. (2) It is a book of sea slug haiku, for all of the poems are about holothurians, which scientists prefer to call "sea cucumbers." (The word "cucumber" is long for haiku and not metaphorically suitable for many poems, so poetic license was taken.) With this book, the namako, as the sea cucumber is called in Japanese, becomes the most translated single subject in haiku, surpassing the harvest moon, the snow, the cuckoo, butterflies and even cherry blossoms. (3) It is a book of original haiku. While the author’s original intent was to include only genuine old haiku (dating back to the 17th century), modern haiku were added and, eventually, Keigu (the author’s haiku name) composed about a hundred of his own to help fill out gaps in the metaphorical museum. For many if not most of the modern haiku taken from the web, it is also their first time in print! (4) It is a book of metaphor. How may we arrange hundreds of poems on a single theme? Rise divides the poems into 21 main metaphors including the Cold Sea Slug, the Mystic Sea Slug, the Helpless Sea Slug, the Slippery Sea Slug, the Silent Sea Slug, and the Melancholy Sea Slug, giving each a chapter, within which the metaphors may be further subdivided, and throws in an additional hundred pages of Sundry Sea Slugs (scores of varieties including monster, spam, flying, urban myth, and exploding). (5) It is a book on haiku. Editors usually select only the best haiku, but, Rise includes good and bad haiku by everyone from the 17th century haiku master to the anonymous haiku "rejected" in some internet contest. This is not to say all poems found were included, but that the standard was along more taxonomic or encyclopedic lines: poems that filled in a metaphorical or sub-metaphorical gap were always welcome. Also, the author tries to show there is more than one type of "good" haiku. These are new ways to approach haiku. (6) It is a book on translation. There are approximately 2 translations per haiku, and some boast a dozen. These are arranged in mixed single, double and triple-column clusters which make each reading seem a different aspect of a singular, almost crystalline whole. The author’s aim is to demonstrate that multiple reading (such as found in Hofstadter’s Le Ton Beau de Marot) is not only a fun game but a bona fide method of translating, especially useful for translating poetry between exotic tongues. (7) It is a book of nature writing, natural history or metaphysics (in the Emersonian sense). The author tried to compile relevant or interesting (not necessarily both) historical -- this includes the sea slug in literature, English or Japanese, and in folklore -- and scientific facts to read haiku in their light or, conversely, bring or wring out science from haiku. Unlike most nature writers, the author admits to doing no fieldwork. He sluggishly stays put and relies upon reports from more mobile souls. (8) It is a book about food symbolism. The sea cucumber is noticed by Japanese because they eat it; the eating itself involves physical difficulties (slipperiness and hardness) and pleasures from overcoming them. It is also identified with a state of mind, where "you are what you eat" takes on psychological dimensions not found in the food literature of the West. (9) It is a book about Japanese culture. The author does not set out to explain Japan, and the sea slug itself is silent, but the collection of poems and their explanations, which include analysis by poets who responded to the author’s que

The Split Tongue Sparrow: a traditional Japanese folktale (English and Japanese Edition)

The Split Tongue Sparrow: a traditional Japanese folktale (English and Japanese Edition)


In 1988 at the Olympic Games in Seoul, South Korea, Jan Hayes first heard the story of the Split Tongue Sparrow. She asked for the story to be written in Kanji and later requested someone at the Japanese Center of Middle Tennessee State University to roughly translate the folktale. Hayes has put her own artistic flair into the retelling, adding haikus to the beginning and end and presenting the entire story in a way reflective of the traditional Japanese folktale style. For the publication, Eri Redfern translated the story back into Kanji, which is included in the back of the book. Bobby Dawson s artwork makes this heartwarming narrative about the blessings of kindness a true masterpiece.

A DOLPHIN IN THE WOODS Composite Translation, Paraversing & Distilling Prose

A DOLPHIN IN THE WOODS Composite Translation, Paraversing & Distilling Prose


Robin D. Gill, author of seven books in Japanese, is best known in the English-speaking world for thematic books of translated Japanese poetry. From Rise, Ye Sea Slugs! (haiku) to The Woman Without a Hole (senryu) and, most recently, Mad In Translation (kyoka), he developed multiple readings to prevent or compensate for loss of wit and style in translation between exotic tongues. Readings varying far enough from the original to become separate poems came to be called "paraverses." Readings combined into a single cluster to English Japanese poems of Joycean density untranslatable as single poems came to be called "composite translations." While this book essays the translation of poetry and glances at other books of multiple translation, it is mostly an exhibition of the art not only intended for serious students or scholars of translation but all word-lovers. While the author hates "how to" books, writing the last chapter, he came to realize that not only translators, but monolingual readers who find it hard to compose poems or do not know how to get other people to do so, might find it instructive. He dreams of millions of people working out their own poems - or variations on others' work - rather than crossword puzzles. A crossword solved ends up in the trash; with a poem, you can have your cake and not only eat it, too, but serve it up for others to eat. Any major newspaper or magazine editor with brains who reads this book should be able to figure out how to make that a reality. A DOLPHIN has 8 punning pictures by Thomas Hood (1799-1845), and no index but a dual Table of Contents, one ordinal and one categorical. The main title is part of a phrase from Horace who warned those who played with words and variation in translation to take care lest they end up with a dolphin in the woods and a boar in the flood (delphinum sylvis appingit, fluctibus aprum). Sample of ORDINAL Table of Contents: 01 The Way of Ways, or count the ways to translate the first 6 characters of the Tao-Te-Ching. 02 Rise, Ye Sea Slugs! or the miraculous birth of elegant composite translation clusters. 03 "Still to be neat," "The Essay on Man" and other challenges for metaphysical paraverse. 04 God without turns demon within, or how aphorisms may be multiplied to no end. Sample of CATEGORICAL Table: I Multiple Translations: Watts/Tao-Te-Ching; Sato/Bashô's Frog; Mostow/100-poets, Hofstadter/Le Ton Beau de Marot, Weinberger/Nineteen Ways ch. 1, 5, 9, 13, 17. & my own 20, 21, 22.
