A Journey into Jane Austen’s World

On an overcast Friday morning in the middle of April, I found myself wandering down the main street in an English village named Chawton.  There were no sidewalks, so I walked along the side of the narrow road, constantly checking over my shoulder to ensure I didn’t get clipped by a passing car.  My anxiety […] Continue reading

Experiencing the Art of David Lynch

Weird. Disturbing. Repulsive. Twisted. Uncomfortable. Darkly comedic. No, I’m not talking about Thanksgiving with my family. I’m talking about David Lynch’s new art exhibit “The Unified Field” at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine… Continue reading Continue reading

A Trip to the Middle of the Mountains

Starting the Journey. I wake up early in the morning. It is Sunday, the perfect day to rest and enjoy Mendoza’s landscape. Today we are heading towards Valle del Sol, in Potrerillos. The night is slowly moving away giving place to the rising Sun that wants to become the owner of the sky, as it […] Continue reading

Dickinson College’s Stained-Glass

Dennis Akin’s beautiful stained-glass windows that spot the Dickinson campus deserve admiration. Many Dickinson students and Carlisle residents are not aware of the art around them—they have grown accustomed to their surroundings. Akin’s stained-glass installations are featured on 7 Dickinson buildings: East College, Bosler, Stern, Weiss, Asbell Center, Montgomery House, and the Kline Athletic Center. Akin […] Continue reading

Top 3 Big Ten Heisman Trophy Candidates

Since 2000, the Big Ten has only produced one Heisman Trophy winner, which was Troy Smith out of Ohio State in 2006, largely because the conference does not have the same flashy athletes to compete with the SEC and other big conferences.  But times are changing and the Big Ten is starting to recruit further […] Continue reading

Today’s Run: Gravel, and butterflies, and SURPRISE! Oh, my!

Being the lovely 70 degree, humid tuesday it was—quite different from the cold, dismal weather we have been having—I decided that I would take advantage and go for a nice long, relaxing run.

Not only did I my pass my driver’s license test with flying colors, but I also got my braces off (a little too soon, according to my orthodontist) and I left the country for the very first time.

During my freshmen year in the English- Spanish Translation Program, one of my teachers introduced us to this saying, which made me think about translation, but I still didn’t fully grasp its meaning. Why would translators purposefully … Continue reading Traduttore, Tradittore: Translation Ethics and Mistranslations Continue reading
