Antoine Berman ,,Translation and the Trial of the foreign" Resümee Läbiv teema Antoine Berman´i essees on "tõlkimine kui võõra proovilepanek" (comme épreuve de l´étranger), kuid mõlema, nii lähte- kui sihtkultuuri proovilepanek tõlkimisprotsessi käigus. Räägitakse sellest, kuidas tõlkimine on üha enam võõrapärase edasiandmiselt liikumas teksti ,,kodustamise" suunas. Bermani väitel peab iga tõlge tähendama küll teksti mingil määral kodustamist, ent peaks seejuures siiski säilitama oma võõrapärasuse ja sellest tulenevalt ka teatava komplekssuse. Bermani hinnangul kaasneb teksti liigse kodustamisega ka soovimatu lihtsustamine, mis paratamatult kulmineerub sellega, et originaal kaotab oma isikupära. Ta arvab, et tänapäeva tõlge, ennekõike proosatõlge, võib olla algtekstile sageli kahjustavaks tõlkimine on ennekõike tähenduse säilitamine; vaadeldes teksti moonutamise suundumusi, toob välja selle 12 erinevat viisi: 1.

Kontserdiarvustus Kuna olen olnud Tanel Padar and The Sun'i pikaajaline austaja,siis otsustasin seada sammud 5.detsembril Tallinna kultuurikatlasse. Kontsert oli ühteaegu mõeldud rockbändi Tanel Padar and The Sun uue plaadi ,,Unisex" esmaesitluseks. Peaesineja soojenduseks oli palutud esinema Soome eksperimentaalrockansambel Cleaning Women, bänd siiski naistest ei koosnenud. Cleaning Women oli väga omapärane ja huvitav bänd, sest mehed ei kasutanud muusika loomiseks mitte tavalisi instrumente, vaid majapidamisasju, näiteks kõiksugused potid pannid ja muu säärane oli laval kasutuses. Alguses, kui soojendusbänd lavale tuli tundus nende muusika veidi ebaharilik ja oli kõrvadele üsna harjumatu, kuid lõpupoole, muutus see juba üsna huvitavaks ja tekkis tahtmine bändist rohkem teada saada. Cleaning Women oli laval tund aega, bänd sai aja sisustamisega ja soojendamisega hästi hakkama, kuid siiski oli minu põhitäh...
About Peter I House Museum Emperor Peter I (1672-1725) expanded the borders of the Russian Empire in the course of the Northern War and managed to annex the whole Estonian territory by the year 1710. Therefore the protection of the new border areas became the priority of the ruler and he paid a lot of attention to the reconstruction of ports in Tallinn and Paldiski and visited Tallinn several times. Together with the site of the would-be palace, a summer estate and a 17th-century cottage that had belonged to town councillor von Drenteln were purchased for the emperor's use in 1713. The small cottage was enlarged with a wing and the outcome was a building with a hall, a kitchen and four rooms. The small summer residence was in use until the emperor's death. The succeeding rulers used the Palace of Kadriorg that had been completed only after Peter's death and the small building was neglected. The building was ...
Miks just nemad? Minu lemmik bänd on The Bird And The Bee(Lind ja Mesilane), kuna nende laulud ja nende tehtav muusika on väga lõõgastav ja hea kuulata, igas laulus võib välja lugeda mõne mõtte. Laulude puhul meeldivad mulle kõige enam sõnad laulu tekst on neil üldiselt väga lihtne, aga kui jääda tähelepanelikult kuulama on need, ometi nii lihtsad sõnad, äärmiselt sügavamõttelised. The Bird And The Bee tehtav muusika on täpselt selline nagu mulle meeldib mõnus, mahe, lihtne, arusaadav, ei mingit mõttetut loba ja mis hea muusika puhul kõige tähtsam, ei mingit röökimist. Mina olen arusaanud, et kui laulja laulda ei oska hakkab ta hästi kõvasti röökides laulma, mis minu kõrvale on liig :D. Mis siis on minu lemmikmuusika? minu lemmikmuusika on midagi jazzi, popi, rocki, alternatiivi ja indie vahepealset. See ei ole eriti rütmikas muusika, aga see eest on ta selline mahe ja voogav ja rahulik, lühemalt öeldes siis selline muusika mida ...

The Great Guild Liisbeth Kallakmaa The Great Guild Medieval Tallinn's social institutions were guilds and brotherhoods, whose main function was to provide members with social interactions and ensure their rights, but also played an important political and economic role. Tallinn had three important guilds - The Great Guild, St. Canute's Guild and St. Olaf's guild. The Great Guild was the youngest among them, founded in the 14th century, but soon became the biggest and most important. It was founded as an organization of the wealthiest merchants and shipowners. The name of the Great Guild was introduced in the late 15th century. There were close ties between the guild and the town rules: only members of the Great Guild had the right to belong to the town council and could be elected for mayor. Tallinn's small coat of arms is also the Great Guild's coat of arms. Guild was led by Alderman, with the assistance of t...
Should smart devices be banned in the classroom? Now days smart phones are inseparable part our lives, we can see them everywhere. Students have them all over the world. The disadvantages of banning smart devices are several. Cellphones can be very useful if used for the right purposes. When smart devices are banned then students can’t use their smart phones for looking up information, or knowing what homework is and can’t use them for dictionaries or calculators. The advantages of banning smart devices are more than advantages. When tabs, smart phones or computers are banned then also students could not cheat on a test by looking for information on the Internet and they could not get distracted on their devices by being socially active by texting on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram or playing games. In my opinion of banning smart devices is a good idea because students will be a more alert to be awar...

Britain and the sea The sea has always attracted people. It is beautiful, it offers them food, and it carries them to different places round the world. Both countries lost many people in the long series of battles. Seaman suffering from illnesses and hunger died in the streets of coastal villages even several months after returning to land. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the number of ships increased more than four times as trade between Britain and other countries was growing. The ships were small and they were needed in great numbers to carry all the cargoes. Hundreds of then were wrecked off the coasts of the British Isles.

The good and bad points of working and going to school at the same time Everyone has the right to the higher education, but for some people it`s more difficult than to the others. To leave your parents` home for the first time brings a lot of unexpected outgoings. Students have a issues with the payment of rent and utility bills and they need to go to the work and attend college at the same time. Working and going to school at the same time has good and bad points. The good points of it are certainly the new and intrestings experiences. Students get used to the pressure and studying to handle the stress. The bad points of it are that some people can`t handle the pressure. Students have no time to study and forgot that the first priority have to be studying. I strongly belive that stundying and working at the same time isn`t that bad. In my opinion it`s learning from life. You just need to find the...
Kelly Ilp 10. D Good morning to everybody! My name is Kelly. The topic of my presentation is technology, the Internet and the influence on the society. I have divided my talk into three parts.

Secondly, I am going to talk about the drawbacks of the modern life technology and in the last part of my presentation I want to point out the main problems and give a solution or two on how to avoid the dark sides of the Internet. Well, let's start the first part which is the bright side of computers and web. Nowadays, the Internet is probably most famous for the ability to spread information, fact or fiction.

Essay Online news portals will make the newspapers a thing of the past Technics and scient achievements are newing all the time. For that reason people get more and more comfortable and lazier. Old traditions and values are disappearing from people´s lives. For example- films are now in 3D and 4D, people can shop online, they don´t have to go to the library to borrow books- they can just get them for free or buy from internet E-books. And what´s main- newspapers are also disappearing, people read them online. Online news portals are eating newspapers out: they are comfortable, internet is accessible and fast and ofcourse, when something important happens on another side of the world, people can read information about it after 5-10 minutes, not like with newspapers, where information is available on the next day morning. I can say that, not like others, I prefer old-fashioned newspapers, ...

A Movie Review of "Moliere" In 2007, a wonderful surprise "Moliere", enchanted the romantics and critics all over Europe. An historical love story, surrounded by affairs and intrigues, now retold in new colours, gained popularity amongst young and elderly, connecting those who prefer theatre, good humour and a little bit of sadness. It can be said that the play of the actors was one of the most successful challenges performed in front of the camera. They lived in the seventeenth century, talking and feeling everything as naturally as if they had been born around that time. The humour mostly gentle, sometimes cruel, described and criticised perfectly every aspect of the complicated society, the naïve King and the women who had secret love affairs. It is clear that the actors gave their best while filming the movie and got the result they may be proud of. As for more, the story itself is catching. The m...

Simple and small ways affect the enviroment for the better Everyone can do something for the enviroment. All of us should do something, because enviroment is very important to people. Our planet is changing and we need to help it change for the better. One way how to help the enviroment is saving energy. You should switch off anything, that uses electricity. If you’re not using it, then turn it off, it’s simple. This goes for lights, televisions and so on. Also try unplugging if possible, because even when an appliance is turned off, it still may use power. You could switch your light bulbs to LED light bulbs, because these are using less energy and even last longer. If you use renewable energy sources, you won’t cause burning fossil fuels, that causes pollution. Another way how to help the enviroment would be saving water. Turn off the water, when you’re not using it. People often leave water running, when they’re br...
Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie is a British Indian novelist and essayist. He is born on 19. June 1947. He is the only son of Anis Ahmed Rushdie and Negin Bhatt, a teacher. Rushdie was born in Bombay, India, into a Muslim family of Kashmiri descent.[10][11][12] He was educated at Cathedral and John Connon School in Mumbai, Rugby School, and King's College, University of Cambridge, where he studied history. Rushdie's first career was as a copywriter, working for the advertising agency Ogilvy & Mather. It was while he was at Ogilvy that he wrote Midnight's Children, before becoming a full-time writer. His first novel, Grimus, a part-science fiction tale, was generally ignored by the public and literary critics. His next novel, Midnight's Children, catapulted him to literary notability. It is regarded by many as one of the great books of the last 100 years. This work won the 1981 Booker Prize and, in 1993 and 2008, was awarded the Best of the Boo...
The advantages and disadvantages of being a vegetarian Nowadays, vegetarianism has become a trend for people who are in search of a healthier life. Comparing with the past, the variety of different nonanimal products available has increased considerably and is sufficient to provide a healthy diet. However, it can be said there are both advantages and disadvantages for deciding to be a vegetarian. Firstly, vegetarians feel that there are certain advantages to be gained by not eating meat. They consider substitute foods such as soya, cereals and vegetables to be an even better source of protein than meat. It is maintained that such foods are low in fat and cholesterol, therefore promoting better health. Finally, by avoiding meat, vegetarians believe they are not eating contaminated food which is often a source of many illnesses. ...
Essay: Modern electronic games Electronic games have become very popular among people of all ages nowadays due to the easy access to computers, consoles and internet. They are mostly frowned upon by adults, because they do not seem to find any positive aspects about them. But are electronic games really that bad for you? Of course, like anything else, video games can be addictive, which may lead to eye damage. The impact of excessive visual medium is evident as a large number of children these days start wearing spectacles from an early age. Long hours of playing can also result in headaches and dizziness. When played moderately, video games have many benefits. The activities and actions on the screen provide a lot of mental stimulation, improving coordination, concentration and problem-solving skills. Online gaming enables many players to engage in a particular game simultaneously. There is const...

My house would be in the middle of them, so i could see the sea from one side and the mountains from the other side of the house.

St. James Park History St James’s Park is the oldest Royal Park in London. On James I's accession to the throne in 1603, he ordered that the park be drained and landscaped, and kept exotic animals in the park, includingcamels, crocodiles, and an elephant, as well as aviaries of exotic birds along the south. Charles II opened the park to the public, as well as using the area to entertain guests. On his desire had the park redesigned in a more formal style, probably by the French landscaper André Mollet. At the end of the 17th century and early 18th century were the cows in the park and could to buy fresh milk in "Lactarian". Location: The park is located in central London. This is 23 hectare large.

The foundation stones The Island Britain has a mild climate due to the Gulf Stream which brings warm waters from the Gulf of Mexico. The northern part of the island in average 5'C cooler and it's mountainous or hilly and that's why the south has been more populated.. Britain became an island only 5000 years BC after the Ice Age ended. Britain's prehistory The first evidence of human life on the island are dated back to 250 000 BC. 50 000 BC in a milder Ice Age period Britain became habitable again. People from that time were the ancestors of the modern British. 10 000 BC ige age ended and Britain became inhabited by small groups of hunters who probably followed herds of deer. 5000BC Britain became an island and deer died out. 3000BC the Neolithic people came (probably from Spanish peninsula or even North African ...
EKTODERMI ARENG: KESKNÄRVISÜSTEEM JA EPIDERMIS 1 SARNANE NÄRVIKOE ERISTUMINE Putukate ja selgroogsete närvisüsteemidel paistab olevat väga vähe ühist, ometi molekulaarsed juhised närviketi areng suunamiseks ja kindlate osade spetsialiseerumiseks, näivad olevat sarnased. Sellist sarnasust on näha mitmetes närvisüsteemi arengu etappides. 1.1 Neuraalse ekstodermi eristumine: BMP/Dpp ja chordin/Sonik rajad Nii putukad kui selgroogsed formeerivad vastavad närviketid BMP signaale välimises lootelehes takistades. Rajad mida mööda need valgud liiguvad on samuti putukatel ja selgroogsetel sarnased.

The Internet and Social Order KAROLIN PETERSON The Internet is, as of today, a fairly unrestricted medium where all sorts of information can be published and accessed. Do I think there should be any restrictions and censorship imposed relating to inappropriate or potentially dangerous content that could pose a threat to public safety? In my opinion there shouldn't be any kind of information that could danger people available online e.g you can easily find instructions how to build a bomb (smoke bomb, atomic bomb) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUakUPkbpU checking in online (e.g on facebook) shows where you are at the moment and that makes it easy for the burglars to know when you're away from home. Do I think the government has any right or reason to monitor people's online activity? The government should find out about potential threats online but should still let people keep their priva...

London - The City and Beyond The statue of a bronze dragon on Fleet Street is the entrance to the City of London. This is where the Romans founded Londinium almost two thousand years ago. The City covers about 2,6 square km (1 square mile) and is often called the Square Mile. Today, the City of London is one of the world's most important business and financial centres, with over 500 banks. Over 400 000 people work within the Square Mile during weekdays and it is a crowded and noisy place. The Barbican Centre is a very big complex of buildings, towers, garages and walkways. It was built in the 70s and most Londoners don't like the way it looks. It is the largest performing arts centre in Europe and home to two symphony orchestras, and art gallery and the amazing Museum of London. Fleet Street once was a road between the City and Westminster. Then it became the centre of publishing and newspaper business for centuries. The Dail...
Kevin Kohjus Ewert and the two dragons 16. septembril toimus Viljandi Pärimusmuusika aidas Ewert and The Two Dragonsi kontsert. Bänd kes on saanud tuntuks oma muusika stiiliga peaaegu kõikjas riikides, on tegemas suurt tegu maailmas. Valisin nende kontsertile mineku ühel suurel põhjusel, nimelt mulle väga meeldib nende muusika, ning kuidas nad seda esitavad läbi oma emotsioonide. Viljandis pole tõesti nad varem käinud, seega ei saanud sellist head võimalust käest lasta. Ostsin esimesel võimalus piletid ära, ning mõne ajapärast olid piletid väljamüüdud, see juba näitab kui populaarne võib üks bänd olla. Kontsertile läksin heameeleoluga, ning seadsin endale suured ootused bändi suhtes, ning pean tunnistama, et ma polnud pettunud, mida mulle pakuti. Kui süveneda rohkem bändi muusikasse, siis on tegu akustilise indie rock'iga, kasutatakse instrumentaa...
Names with and without the. A/ We do not use 'the' with names of most streets/roads/squares/parks etc.: Union Street (not 'the...') / Fifth Avenue/ Piccadilly Circus/ Hyde Park Blackrock Road/ Broadway/ Times Square/ Waterloo Bridge Many names (especially names of important buildings and institutions) are two words: Kennedy Airport/ Cambridge University The first word is usually the name of a person ('Kennedy') or a place ('Cambridge').

Some more examples: Victoria Station (not 'the...') / Edinburgh Castle/ London Zoo/ Westminster Abbey/ Buckingham Palace/ Canterbury Cathedral But we say 'the White House', 'the Royal Palace', because 'white' and 'royal' are not names like 'Kennedy' and 'Cambridge'. This is only a general rule and there are exceptions. B/ Most other names (of places, buildings etc.) have names with the: These places usually have names w...
