Le Millionnaire

This volume brings together the ideas put forward at an international conference on Metaphor and Translation held at the University of Toulon, France, in June 2017. The bilingual nature of the contributions here provides an insight into recent linguistic theories from both the English- and French-speaking worlds. This diversified approach is further enhanced by contributors being based in a large number of countries worldwide and working on different language combinations. The kinds of problem areas investigated here include a wide range of themes. They cover aspects ranging from methodological and theoretical issues to specialist areas such as literature, culture and the economy. Whatever the theoretical approach applied, the findings come up with interesting and useful conclusions as to how metaphor is translated in the types of discourse analysis proposed. As a result, this volume will be of interest to both scholars and students involved in metaphor studies and translation, as well as to professional translators wishing to keep track of recent theories and practical issues in the field.

Au carrefour des mondes turc, iranien et russe qui l’ont façonné à travers les siècles, le Caucase resurgit sur la scène internationale et focalise les attentions à bien des égards depuis que la dernière puissance impériale qui l’a dominé, l’Union soviétique, s’est effacée. L’objectif du présent ouvrage collectif est d’explorer les facteurs d’analyse des renouveaux religieux, chrétien et musulman mais aussi juif, yezidi, molokane ou bahai dans l’ensemble de la Transcaucasie et du Nord Caucase. Ces renouveaux religieux sont analysés dans leurs principales composantes et leurs sources locales à la lumière des influences extérieures et nombreuses interactions multiformes qui lient les deux phénomènes. Il s’agit aussi d’observer comment le politique, héritier souvent laïque d’un ancien régime athéiste, se positionne en matière religieuse pour comprendre les nouvelles politiques identitaires nationales.
