Notes on Translating and Translations

"The Dragons of Eden: Speculations on the Evolution of Human Intelligence by Carl Sagan (1977), recounts a story, probably fictional, about the lack of accuracy in text translation programs.  A deputation that included an American Senator was proudly led to a demonstration of a translation program. The Senator suggested a phrase to be translated, "Out of sight, out of mind". The machine printed Chinese characters and these were then entered into the machine to be translated back to English. The visitors were all astonished when the machine printed the phrase "invisible idiot" on the paper. The computer had literally translated the separate expressions "out of sight" and "out of mind". The anecdote and the phrase "invisible idiot" have entered popular culture."  -  Wikipedia, Dragons of Eden

-  Richard Carter

 

"The first assignment for Daisetz "Great Simplicity" T. Suzuki in 1898 was to help Paul Carus with the Tao Te Ching.  Dr. Carus knew no Chinese, but he wanted this translation to a scholarly one and he had Suzuki supply a character by character gloss, as best he could, but Suzuki found himself unable to check Carus's use of Teutonic abstractions.  "The Chinese are masters in reproducing the most subtle changes in their innermost feelings," Suzuki wrote of his first collaboration with Carus, "thus, in order to translate passages from Lao Tzu, I had to explain to Dr. Carus the feeling behind each Chinese term.  But being himself a German writing in English, he translated these Chinese ideas into abstract conceptual terms.  If only I had been more intellectually equipped then," he thought later, "I might have been better able to help him understand the original meaning."
In order to supply a corresponding Chinese text, Suzuki cut out the Chinese characters from Chinese and Japanese books, and pasted them in the proper places on the manuscript pages, which where then reproduced photographically [and then printed in 1913]."
-  "How the Swans Came to the Lake," by Rick Fields, 1981, p. 139

 

"Translation," as T. S. Eliot wrote of the Fennollosa-Pound version of Noh plays, "is valuable by a double power of fertilizing a literature: by importing new elements which may be assimilated, and by restoring the essentials which have been forgotten in traditional literary method.  There occurs, in the process, a happy fusion between the spirit of the original and the mind of the translator: the result is not exoticism by rejuvenation."
-  "How the Swans Came to the Lake," by Rick Fields, 1981, p. 165

 

Is That a Fish in Your Ear?: Translation and the Meaning of Everything  By David Bellos.  New York, Faber and Faber, 2011.  Index, notes, 393 pages.  ISBN: 9780865478763. VSCL.

Tao Te Ching Spanish Indexing/Concordance Project

Indexing (Concordance) for the Spanish language terms in each of the 81 Chapters of the Tao Te Ching
was first completed during 2014-2015 by Michael P. Garofalo.  Version 2.1 in 9/2015. 

Currently, from February to December, 2021, I am upgrading both the Concordance and 81 Chapter webpages.
I am aiming for Version 4.1. in March of 2022. 

I did not include the masculine and feminine articles for Spanish nouns in the subject index.
Some Spanish diacritical marks are missing.   
I did not italicize any Spanish or English words.  I did italicize the Chinese (Wade-Giles romanization) words. 
I hope these changes will make searching in the Daodejing 81 Concordance efficient. 

Since I, Michael Garofalo, am not formally educated in the Spanish language, I welcome email suggestions, revisions, corrections, comments,
or collaboration regarding the Spanish language translations or the Spanish Language indexing of the Tao Te Ching that I have created and shared. 

All contributors to this project will be acknowledged.

Supplementary Reading Materials in Spanish

Children's Books in Spanish

Online Newspapers in Spanish

Children's Books in Spanish from Amazon

Biblia Bilingüe (Español - Inglés): Parallel Bible (Spanish - English) 

I use the English/Spanish display of this book on my Kindle Paperwhite.  A one sentence at at time presentation of the English sentence, and then side-by-side, the Spanish translation of that previous sentence.  Read, reread, study both English and Spanish grammatical structure, translate, reread, retranslate, say words in Spanish over 75% of study time on a sentence, learning by reading and repeating, etc.  Words in the mouth become words in the brain, reading and translating reprograms consciousness, reading expands one's webs of linguistic and literary cosmopolitanism.  The Bible, as content, has much relevance in Spanish speaking countries.  The Catholic Church, as I know well from personal educational experience, is muy popular amongst ELA Latinos.
