Rendre les stéréotypes dans le film "Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au bon Dieu?": transposition ou traduction ?

Le rôle du traducteur est de permettre le dialogue entre deux « mondes autres », de connaître les éléments qui les différencient et de transmettre le message le plus fidèlement possible. Tout dans un texte peut résister à la traduction (vocabulaire, syntaxe, culture). Le but de la traduction est de recréer l’original, tout en sachant que la traduction a ses limites. Quelles sont les limites de la traduction ? Est-il suffisant de bien maîtriser une langue pour pouvoir la traduire ? Est-ce que tous nos mots ont une équivalence dans les autres langues ? Pouvons-nous faire rire l'autre avec les mêmes traits d’humour ? Une traduction, peut-elle transmettre au lecteur ou au spectateur cible toutes les nuances présentes dans le texte ou le film de départ ? Le film français Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au bon Dieu ?3 sera l'objet de notre analyse. Tout comme le film de Dany Boon, il a eu beaucoup de succès en France et il a également été doublé en italien. Il s'agit ici aussi d'un film humoristique qui joue sur les stéréotypes que nous avons sur l'autre, d'où le choix de commenter le doublage et d'imaginer une piste de transposition italienne. Ce mémoire se propose de répondre aux questions posées ci-dessus, tout en proposant des commentaires de traduction et des pistes de transposition. Nous allons développer trois parties : tout d'abord, nous allons voir comment notre vision du monde influence notre langue et, vice versa, comment notre langue crée un ordre dans le monde. Ensuite, nous allons nous concentrer sur l'intraduisible verbal et non verbal, sur la traduction et l'adaptation de l'humour. Enfin, la troisième et dernière partie sera consacrée au thème de la transposition et, plus particulièrement, à la piste transposition du film Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au bon Dieu ?.

Analisi del film L'appartamento spagnolo: multilinguismo e comunicazione interculturale

The present research study focuses on intercultural communication and how its dynamics are portrayed in the Italian version of the movie L’appartamento spagnolo (original title: L’auberge espagnol) by Cédric Klapisch. The first chapter introduces the movie in all its main features, such as plot, setting, characters, languages, main themes, and sequels. The second chapter focuses on the dynamics of intercultural communication through the analysis of the most representative scenes of the movie. It is worth noting that the notion of intercultural communication comprises a lot of different kinds of communication, meaning not only communication among people coming from different countries and speaking a different language, but also among different generations, people with different social backgrounds, with a different social status, etc. However, language is indeed crucial to mutual understanding and it plays a fundamental role in communication. For this reason, the third chapter focuses on the multilingual dimension of the movie, since the issue of intercultural communication is also conveyed through a variety of languages. The aim is to analyze the different strategies used in the Italian dubbed version in order to manage the presence of different languages and to examine how such strategies affect the overall consistency of the dialogues and the effect achieved on the audience.

Il sottotitolaggio per i film festival: due esperienze pratiche

This dissertation aims to examine the field of film festival subtitling by means of the analysis of two subtitling experiences. These experiences will be approached both on a methodological and on a practical level in order to analyse how subtitlers put theory into practice. This approach will also help underline the existing differences in work methodology as far as different work experiences are concerned. The subtitling experiences examined in this dissertation are part of my internships as a subtitler in two Italian film festivals, namely “Umbria Film Festival” and “900 Fest”. In this dissertation, I chose to focus on the subtitling of two of the audiovisual products I translated. These products are a German documentary titled Befreier und Befreite and a Danish fiction film titled Stille Hjerte. This dissertation is divided into five chapters. Chapter 1 describes audiovisual translation at its most theoretical level, focusing on subtitling criteria and strategies. Chapter 2 examines the concept of film translation, focusing on the distinctive features of documentary translation as a specific genre. This chapter also presents the concept of film festival and provides information concerning the translation policies of festivals. Chapter 3 presents the festivals I worked for and details my internship experiences. Chapter 4 focuses on the German documentary and proposes a number of solutions to its main translation problems. Chapter 5 focuses on the Danish film and offers solutions to its translation problems. At the end of the dissertation, I will provide some comments on my internship experiences as well as on the practice of film festival subtitling.

Extraordinary transmission through a single coaxial aperture in a thin metal film

We investigate experimentally the transmission properties of single sub-wavelength coaxial apertures in thin metal films (t = 110 nm). Enhanced transmission through a single sub-wavelength coaxial aperture illuminated with a strongly focused radially polarized light beam is reported. In our experiments we achieved up to four times enhanced transmission through a single coaxial aperture as compared to a (hollow) circular aperture with the same outer diameter.We attribute this enhancement of transmission to the excitation of a TEM-mode for illumination with radially polarized light inside the single coaxial aperture. A strong polarization contrast is observed between the transmission for radially and azimuthally polarized illumination. Furthermore, the observed transmission through a single coaxial aperture can be strongly reduced if surface plasmons are excited. The experimental results are in good agreement with finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations.
