Bhashantara Jijnase, Pratyakshike
₹395.00Author: N T Bhat
“ಭಾಷಾಂತರವೆಂದರೆ ಎರಡು ಭಾಷಿಕರ ನಡುವೆ ಸಂವಹನವನ್ನು ಏರ್ಪಡಿಸುವ ಕಾರ್ಯವಿಧಾನ. ಒಂದು ಭಾಷೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕಥಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ವಿವರಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ಸಂಭಾಷಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ಭಾವನೆಗಳನ್ನು ವ್ಯಕ್ತಪಡಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ವಿಶ್ಲೇಷಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ವರ್ಣಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು, ವಾದಿಸಿದ್ದನ್ನು ಅದಕ್ಕನುಗುಣವಾಗಿ ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ಭಾಷೆಗೆ ಪರಿವರ್ತಿಸುವುದು ಭಾಷಾಂತರವೆಂಬ ಪ್ರಕ್ರಿಯೆ. ಒಂದು ಭಾಷೆಯಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಭಾವಲಹರಿ, ವಿಚಾರಧಾರೆಗಳನ್ನು ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ಭಾಷೆಗೆ ಸ್ಥಳಾಂತರಮಾಡುವುದು ಭಾಷಾಂತರವೆಂದು ಸ್ಥೂಲವಾಗಿ ತಿಳಿದುಕೊಳ್ಳಬಹುದು.”
“ಪ್ರಪಂಚದ ಒಂದು ಮೂಲೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕಂಡುಕೊಂಡ ಹೊಸ ಸಿದ್ಧಾಂತಗಳು, ಆವಿಷ್ಕಾರಗಳು ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ಮೂಲೆಯ ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ಭಾಷೆಯನ್ನಾಡುವ ಜನರಿಗೆ ತಲುಪಿದಾಗ ಅವುಗಳ ಪ್ರಯೋಜನವನ್ನು ಪಡೆಯುವ ಜನರ ಸಂಖ್ಯೆ ಸ್ವಾಭಾವಿಕವಾಗಿಯೇ ಹೆಚ್ಚುತ್ತದೆ. ಪ್ರಪಂಚದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಭಾಷೆಗಳನ್ನು ಕಲಿಸಿದಷ್ಟೂ ಭಾಷಾಂತರದ ಅಗತ್ಯ ಕೆಲವು ಸ್ತರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಕಡಿಮೆಯಾದೀತು. ಆದರೆ, ಅದರಿಂದಾಗಿ ಭಾಷಾಂತರಗಳಿಗೆ ಅವಕಾಶ ಹೆಚ್ಚುತ್ತಾ ಹೋಗುತ್ತದೆ.’’

Reliving the memories of an Indian forester: Memoir of S Shyam Sunder
₹450.00Editor: Shiv Someshwar
Shyam Sunder’s memoir is a series of vignettes, from numerous comedic to a tragic few. The life narrated is varied and never short of excitement – being ten yards from a charging tusker or a foot away from a King Cobra; defying orders of the chief minister; being hauled up for contempt of the high court, and discussing with Indira Gandhi the best way to eat avocados. Possessed of wit and passion, the narration lays bare the hubris of popular discourse on noble forest livelihoods, and unflinchingly narrates neglect of rural communities, as well as of forests, at times by the callous imposition of rules and regulations.
