The 3rd Schizophrenia International Research Society Conference, 14-18 April 2012, Florence, Italy: Summaries of oral sessions

The 3rd Schizophrenia International Research Society Conference was held in Florence, Italy, April 14-18, 2012 and this year had as its emphasis, "The Globalization of Research". Student travel awardees served as rapporteurs for each oral session and focused their summaries on the most significant findings that emerged and the discussions that followed. The following report is a composite of these summaries. We hope that it will provide an overview for those who were present, but could not participate in all sessions, and those who did not have the opportunity to attend, but who would be interested in an update on current investigations ongoing in the field of schizophrenia research.

La figure de Méduse. Réécritures ovidiennes entre XVIe et XVIIe siècle

Starting from an original assumption that Ovid is one of the most influential and studied European mythographers from ancient times till at least the end of the XVII century, my research is about rediscovering Medusa's myth which has been brought to us from Metamorphosis during the period of time between the mid XVI and the last years of the XVII century. The main thread that leads the research trough English, French, Spanish and Italian Literatures gets particularly clarified in the crucial crux that binds the image of Gorgon, the protector of hight mysteries, tightly correlated to the goddess of knowledge, Minerva, and the attraction/dismay for knowing so far considered inaccessible but now perceived as possible (so more attractive than before) thanks to the scientific and geographic discoveries of the Renaissance.

La traduction des textes de théatre. Analyse comparée des réalités contemporaines française et italienne

The aim of the present study is to address contemporary drama translation by comparing two different scenarios, namely France and Italy. For each country, the following areas are described: publications of translated drama texts, their promotion and dissemination, the legal framework concerning copyright in publication and performance contracts. Moreover, the analysis highlights that the translation process of drama texts is part of a working cycle networking different professional figures, such as dramatic authors, directors, actors and publishers. Within this cycle, the translator is in a middle and central position at the same time, a sort of border zone between different contexts, i.e. the source language and culture and the target language and culture. As regards translation-related issues, on the basis of theoretical approaches that can be applied to drama translation, a number of translators’ opinions, statements, positions and practices are compared, thus highlighting an idea of drama translation wavering between translation and adaptation. Drama translators seem to follow these two orientations simultaneously, in compliance with translation ethics and the functional needs of target texts. Such ambivalence is due to the desire and difficulty of translating the specific nature of drama texts, i.e. translating textual elements that are linked, eventually, to stage performance. Indeed, the notion of text or form fidelity is replaced by the notion of fidelity to the theatrical value of a text, in terms of fidelity to its theatrical nature and rhythmical tension. The analysis reveals that drama translators work together with theatre operators, and that in many cases translators are authors, directors or actors themselves. These drama skills enable translators to apply relevant strategies when translating elements that generate rhythm, thus choosing from deleting, reproducing or recreating.

Le proverbe: une approche contrastive franco-italienne la notion de temps proverbial

Dans un contexte de communication, des bonnes compétences linguistiques ne suffisent pas puisque la connaissance approfondie de la culture cible s’avère également une question fondamentale. Il est donc nécessaire d’adopter une attitude communicative adéquate pour que le message puisse être reçu correctement. Parmi les aspects culturels auxquels le parlant doit accorder une grande importance figurent les proverbes. Les proverbes sont des énoncés d’origine populaire qui recèlent un contenu moral et éthique dont la visée est apprendre aux hommes à bien vivre en société. Les messages véhiculés par les proverbes sont l’héritage de l’expérience des ancêtres dont il faut faire trésor pour comprendre les mœurs, le mode de vie et la pensée d’une communauté donnée : voilà donc pourquoi les proverbes ont été dénommés «sagesse des nations». Depuis la nuit de temps, les proverbes sont transmis de père en fils par voie orale : l’usage quotidien et l’apprentissage par cœur en ont fait des formules fixées dont la structure binaire rimique et rythmique facilite la mémorisation. Par ailleurs, les proverbes sont souvent à interpréter en clé métaphorique, le figement étant l’un des traits définitoires de ce genre du discours. Si les proverbes, énoncés de sagesse populaire, étaient autrefois des sources d’autorité morale, aujourd’hui, au contraire, ils ont perdu leur valeur éthique et sont en train de tomber en désuétude en tant que forme de littérature de deuxième rang, véhiculant des contenus stéréotypés. Néanmoins, les proverbes représentent toujours une clé de lecture pour étudier les sociétés dont ils constituent une partie très importante du patrimoine linguistique et culturel, ce que l’on nomme « patrimoine immatériel ». Le travail que nous allons proposer se penche sur le rôle et l’importance des proverbes, en présentant une approche à l’analyse contrastive des proverbes concernant la notion de temps en langue italienne et française.
