This book studies and evaluates the different translations of the Mu'allaqāt, seven canonical pre-Islamic odes, from Arabic into English and French. First, it introduces the Mu'allaqāt and the chief controversies related to their study in both Eastern and Western scholarship. It then presents the translators of the Mu'allaqāt and their translations and closes with two typologies of the translations and translators presented. A number of criteria for the evaluation of translations of poetry are developed. The book provides a comparative study of the English and French translations of the Mu'allaqāt with a focus on a number of communicative priorities in the source text, based on stylistic devices that require a sound awareness of the culture of pre-Islamic Arabia, the main setting of the Mu'allaqāt. The author assesses the reliability of the criteria of evaluation and the translatability of the Mu'allaqāt as a text that is remote from its translators in time, in place, and with respect to literary tradition.

What is Sufism? Contemporary views vary tremendously, even among Sufis themselves. Contemporary Sufism: Piety, Politics, and Popular Culture brings to light the religious frameworks that shape the views of Sufism’s friends, adversaries, admirers, and detractors and, in the process, helps readers better understand the diversity of contemporary Sufism, the pressures and cultural openings to which it responds, and the many divergent opinions about contemporary Sufism’s relationship to Islam. The three main themes: piety, politics, and popular culture are explored in relation to the Islamic and Western contexts that shape them, as well as to the historical conditions that frame contemporary debates. This book is split into three parts: • Sufism and anti-Sufism in contemporary contexts; • Contemporary Sufism in the West: Poetic influences and popular manifestations; • Gendering Sufism: Tradition and transformation. This book will fascinate anyone interested in the challenges of contemporary Sufism as well as its relationship to Islam, gender, and the West. It offers an ideal starting point from which undergraduate and postgraduate students, teachers and lecturers can explore Sufism today.

Pacifist Invasions is about what happens to the contemporary French lyric in the translingual Arabic context. Drawing on lyric theory, comparative poetics, and linguistics, it reveals three generic modes of translating Arabic poetics into French in works by Habib Tengour (Algeria), Edmond Jabès (Egypt), Salah Stétié (Lebanon), Abdelwahab Meddeb (Tunisia), and Ryoko Sekiguchi (Japan).

Popular and multimodal forms of cultural products are becoming increasingly visible within translation studies research. Interest in translation and music, however, has so far been relatively limited, mainly because translation of musical material has been considered somewhat outside the limits of translation studies, as traditionally conceived. Difficulties associated with issues such as the 'musicality' of lyrics, the fuzzy boundaries between translation, adaptation and rewriting, and the pervasiveness of covert or unacknowledged translations of musical elements in a variety of settings have generally limited the research in this area to overt and canonized translations such as those done for the opera. Yet the intersection of translation and music can be a fascinating field to explore, and one which can enrich our understanding of what translation is and how it relates to other forms of expression. This special issue is an attempt to open up the field of translation and music to a wider audience within translation studies, and to an extent, within musicology and cultural studies. The volume includes contributions from a wide range of musical genres and languages: from those that investigate translation and code-switching in North African rap and rai, and the intertextual and intersemiotic translations revolving around Mahler's lieder in Chinese, to the appropriation and after-life of Kurdish folk songs in Turkish, and the emergence of rock'n roll in Russian. Other papers examine the reception of Anglo-American stage musicals and musical films in Italy and Spain, the concept of 'singability' with examples from Scandinavian languages, and the French dubbing of musical episodes of TV series. The volume also offers an annotated bibliography on opera translation and a general bibliography on translation and music.

Wüsten, Trockengebiete und Steppen der Erde breiten sich aus, jedes Jahr um eine Fläche, die ungefähr der Größe Deutschlands entspricht. Die fortschreitende Wüstenbildung führt zur Flucht der ansässigen Bevölkerung, zum Teil mit spürbaren Auswirkungen auf das Leben in Europa. Auch sonst erzwingt Wüste als Landschaft und Schauplatz historischer Entwicklungen immer stärker unsere Teilnahme. Das Buch des bekannten Schriftstellers Chaim Noll hält anhand literarischer Texte von der Entstehung der Schrift bis zur Gegenwart Themen und Leitmotive einer Urlandschaft des Menschen überblicksartig fest. Viele der alten Hochkulturen entstanden, wo Wüste auf besiedelbares Land trifft. Als zentrales Motiv erweist sich die Widersprüchlichkeit der Wüste: Sie steht zugleich für Dürre und Aufblühen, für Mangel an Wasser und Überfülle an Sonne, für Niedergang und Erneuerung, für deprimierende Einförmigkeit und spirituellen Höhenflug, für Tod und Leben, Gut und Böse, Realität und Mythos.

هناك صعوبة بالغة تواجه مترجم النصوص الأدبية، خاصة الشعرية منها، لما تحويه هذه النصوص من وزن وقافية، وصور فنية، تأثر فيها الشاعر – في الغالب– ببيئته وثقافته، اللتين تختلفان عن بيئة المترجم وثقافته. أضف إلى ذلك اختلاف اللغات في التركيب والدلالة وظلال المعاني، واختلاف الأدباء في أساليب الكتابة. ولقد تُرجمت المعلقات ترجمات عديدة إلى اللغة الإنجليزية وغيرها، منذ القرن الثامن عشر حتى القرن الحادي والعشرين، ولذلك ينبغي أن تُدرس دراسات مقارنة متعددة، تتوافق وترجماتها المختلفة، ومن هنا كان هذا الموضوع: المعلقات السبع بين الأصل العربي والترجمة الإنجليزية "دراسة مقارنة".

Val Plumwood was an eminent environmental philosopher and activist who was prominent in the development of radical ecophilosophy from the early 1970s until her death in 2008. Her book Feminism and the Mastery of Nature (1992) has become a classic. In 1985 she was attacked by a crocodile while kayaking alone in the Kakadu national park in the Northern Territory. She was death rolled three times before being released from the crocodile’s jaws. She crawled for hours through swamp with appalling injuries before being rescued. The experience made her well placed to write about cultural responses to death and predation. The first section of The Eye of the Crocodile consists of chapters intended for a book on crocodiles that remained unfinished at the time of Val’s death. The remaining chapters are previously published papers brought together to form an overview of Val’s ideas on death, predation and nature.
