Learning outcomes
Students will develop a good knowledge of linguistic and discursive structures of the Polish language, in both synchronic and diachronic terms, and will be able to apply them profitably to textual analysis and translation. Through classroom practice, their communicative skills (both active and passive) will progress towards the C2 level of the Common European Framework.
Course contents
The course will combine a theoretical and a practical approach to translation between Polish and Italian. It will start by considering in a diachronic perspective the reflections about translation in Polish culture and by pointing out the specificity of the "Polish school" of Translation Studies. Then translated texts will be analysed in order to recognize and discuss translation problems and strategies. Students will be asked to translate some texts individually and together.
