From Utterances to Speech Acts

By Mikhail Kissine

"Kissine offers a new theory of speech acts which is philosophically sophisticated and builds on work in cognitive science, formal semantics, and linguistic typology. This highly readable, brilliant essay is a major contribution to the field."

--François Recanati, Institut Jean-Nicod

Title: Écrire et traduire pour les enfants – Writing and Translating for Children
Subtitle: Voix, images et mots – Voices, Images and Texts
Edited By: Elena Di Giovanni
Chiara Elefante
Roberta Pederzoli
Series Title: Recherches comparatives sur les livres et le multimédia d'enfance - Volume 3
Description:

The first section of this volume features a variety of essays on writing for children, ranging from studies of classic authors to an analysis of the role of pictures in children's books, to an examination of comics and theatre for the young.

Subjects addressed in the second section include the intersemiotic nature of translating for children, the question of the translator's voice, the theoretical principles that best aid translators in the field of children's literature, as well as chapters exploring the idea of national literatures for the young. The third and final section offers insights into audiovisual translation for children. These contributions focus on theories and models for this kind of translational activity, as well as addressing a number of real-life cases and their reception.

The volume features contributions in three languages: French, English and Italian.
