Roman Jakobson was a famous Russian linguist who emigrated to Czechoslovakia and the United States. He was a leading figure of the Moscow Linguistic Circle and co-founder of the Prague Linguistic Circle. In his 1959 essay "On Linguistic Aspects of Translation," Jakobson defined three types of translation: intralingual translation within one language, interlingual translation between two languages, and intersemiotic translation from verbal language to nonverbal sign systems.
Zenon Fajfer coins the term "liberature" to describe literary works that integrate the text with the physical form of the book into a unified whole. Liberature works evade traditional literary categories because they consider elements like typography, paper material, and book design. Fajfer provides examples like Sterne's Tristram Shandy and Joyce's Finnegans Wake that challenge conventional criticism due to their unconventional material forms. He argues liberature distinguishes these works from categories in other fields and belongs within the scope of literature. Research on liberature has begun in Poland to develop tools to analyze these works and introduce readers to this genre.
Roman Jakobson was one of the most influential linguists of the 20th century. He was born in Russia and helped develop structural linguistics and revolutionary techniques for analyzing linguistic systems. Jakobson defined six key functions of language: referential, emotive, conative, poetic, metalingual, and phatic. He taught at universities including Harvard and MIT, and made significant contributions to structuralism, semiotics, and poetics through his analysis of linguistic sounds and communication functions. Jakobson had a prolific career influencing the fields of linguistics, semiotics and literary theory.
Comparative Literature is the study and comparison of literature across linguistic and national boundaries. Some key points:
- It was first coined in 1848 to refer to studying different national literatures. It aims to provide broader perspectives than isolating single national literatures.
- It involves examining literary texts in multiple languages through investigating contrasts, analogies, influences between literary groups.
- Comparing works helps appreciate individual authors and genres more fully by placing them in wider contexts. Understanding multilingual writers requires comparing works in different languages.
- It plays a role in constructing literary theory by recognizing excellence and originality across canons. Comparisons illustrate connections and provide more balanced views than isolated analyses.
The document discusses the author's love of literature that started with books connecting external events to inner thoughts. The author is interested in psychology and how literature relates to one's life and beliefs. Immersing in other authors' works has helped the author develop their own ideas and inspire their writing. Literature also challenges society, debates controversial topics, and the author is intrigued by historical novels that explore real events. The skills developed in school through leadership roles and the author's drive to learn more about literature's constant transformation motivates their desire to study English Literature further.
