A Gendered Voice in Translation: Translating Like a Feminist

This paper addresses some of the challenges inherent in finding and showing a gendered voice in translation. The starting point is my own experience as a feminist translator of both feminist and non-feminist texts. Textual practices like translating necessarily interact with current theoretical debates. In turn, theoretical writing on feminism enriches and informs one’s translating activity. This interplay between theoretical models and textual practices was particularly made evident to me as I rendered Essentially speaking, by Diana Fuss, into Catalan. In this article I intend to transcend anecdotes of translating individual texts and consider how translating equals rewriting oneself; it involves rethinking writing practices. I will specifically address the rethinking of (1) one’s identity when translating ‘like’ a feminist, (2) performativity in gender and in translation, and (3) agency and (In)visibility.

Estudio sobre la construcción autorregulada del portafolio en el grado de Enfermería

Introduction. This study presents the results of the implementation process of portfolio in the course of four consecutive years. The plan includes three phases (initiation, development and consolidation). The sample is 480 students studying the first year of nursing at the University of Girona. The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of the instrument and achieve its construction in a self-regulated process. Subjects and methods. The proposed methodology is based on the sequential triangulation between methods. The study of the same empirical unit it’s used two investigation strategies, quantitative and qualitative. Study 1: quantitative, descriptive, longitudinal and prospective. The statistical analysis of paired data for continuous variables that follow a normaldistribution is made with t Student-Fisher test. The correlation between two numerical variables is used the Pearson correlation index. Study 2: qualitative, uses the discussion groups and topics. For textual data analysis is used Atlas.ti. Results. The final score for students who prepare the portfolio is higher (7.78) than the score who do not prepare (7) (p ≤ 0.001). A significant correlation exists between the portfolio score and final score (p ≤ 0.001). The trend study showsa greater sensitivity of the instrument assessment. Conclusion. The final design of the portfolio is characterized by mixed, flexible and encourages the student reflection and empowers the reflection on the continuum of learning

Los géneros discursivos desde la perspectiva del ELE

Afrontar el proceso de adquisición de una lengua extranjera supone unatarea global que culmina en el dominio de la misma en múltiples variablessituacionales. En el siguiente trabajo proponemos una incipientecaracterización de la conversación telefónica como subgénero discursivo quese enmarca en el ámbito del desarrollo de las destrezas orales. Pretendemoscon ello acotar un marco específico en el que las característicasinteraccionales propias de los textos conversacionales aparecen en algunosaspectos dislocadas, así como proponer una aplicación didáctica mediante laimbricación de este género textual con el uso de ciertos recursos cinematográficos en la clase de ELE.
