31 impression
•• impressionistic, impressionist, impression
•• * Даже в наиболее полных словарях (в том числе Новом БАРСе) слово impressionistic описано не полностью. Перевод везде отсылает к художникам-импрессионистам (кстати, у нас под словом «импрессионизм» чаще всего подразумевают французских художников конца XIX века, американцы же говорят о них French Impressionists и могут сказать impressionistic artist о современном художнике). Но вот это слово в контексте, не имеющем отношения к искусству:
•• Statistics on this controversial subject are scarce, and most of the evidence is impressionistic and anecdotal. (Richard Pipes) (О слове anecdotal cм. в «Моем несистематическом словаре»).
•• Это употребление impressionistic не отражено и в известных мне английских толковых словарях. В Webster’s Third New International Dictionary есть определение и пример на слово impressionism: a vague and subjective response ( as to a work of art).
•• Her attack is almost always human, rather than critical, highly personal, degenerating occasionally into vague impressionism. (Mark Scherer)
•• Идя от этого определения, можно искать контекстуальный перевод impressionistic «на пересечении» слов субъективный, отрывочный, неполный, разрозненный (как видим, значения слов impressionistic и anecdotal в данном случае сближаются) и т.д. Можно развернуть в основанный на субъективных впечатлениях.
•• Интересное употребление слова impressionistic в сочетании с factors:
•• But the competition over which candidate will score better on one of the most common questions asked by pollsters – who “ understands the problems of people like you” - is influenced by many factors. Some are economic, others more impressionistic. (Washington Post)
•• Видимо, единственно верный перевод – субъективные. Встречается не только impressionistic, но и impressionist – в значении, в зависимости от контекста, субъективный или эскизный:
•• At its best, Fahrenheit 9/11 is an impressionist burlesque of contemporary American politics that culminates in a somber lament for lives lost in Iraq. (Wall Street Journal) - В своих лучших проявлениях « Фаренгейт 9/11» - субъективное, гротескное изображение политической жизни сегодняшней Америки, кульминацией которого становится плач о погибших в Ираке.
•• В англо-русских словарях (и многих толковых словарях английского языка) отсутствует и значение слова impressionist – entertainer, theater or television performer who mimics the way well-known people speak and behave, usually in a humorous and exaggerated way – комик-пародист. Первоисточник этого значения – impression как пародия, имитация и даже звукоподражание. Определение в American Heritage Dictionary: A humorous imitation of the voice and mannerisms of a famous person done by an entertainer. Сочетаемость: he does impressions of X/Y/Z. Еще это называется takeoff (определение в AHD: an imitative caricature or burlesque) и sendup (чаще в глагольной форме, опять-таки см. в AHD: to make a parody of: “grandiloquently eccentric but witty verbiage...that would send up the nastiness of suburban London.”( New York))
•• А вот слово parody, хотя и существует в английском языке, но употребляется редко, а в переносном смысле («пародия на правосудие», например) говорят travesty – a travesty of justice. В общем, многие из этих слов – в той или иной мере «ложные друзья».
