67 irrelevant
•• Irrelevant not relevant to; not connected with (A.S. Hornby).
•• На первый взгляд, слово «безразмерной семантики», во всяком случае так может показаться по обилию контекстов, в которых оно встречается (как и его антоним relevant), и возможных переводов. Англичане и американцы, однако, воспринимают эти слова как весьма конкретные, и словари определяют их очень сжато. Например, в Oxford American Dictionary relevant – related to the matter in hand. Irrelevant – not relevant. И все. Переводчику от этого, конечно, не легче. Распространенность этих слов я связываю с прагматическим характером англосаксонской интеллектуальной традиции. О чем бы ни заходил разговор, англичанин или американец невольно подсознательно задает себе вопрос, который по-русски можно сформулировать примерно так: А это «из той оперы»? Разумеется, это сугубо разговорное, ироническое выражение в переводе чаще всего неприменимо, но оно лучше приоткрывает смысл слов relevant и irrelevant, чем многие словарные рекомендации. В реальных переводческих ситуациях следует стремиться к максимальной гибкости высказывания (вспомним о широком понимании синонимии!), не цепляться за ту или иную часть речи, скажем, существительное или прилагательное.
•• Интересно, что эти слова очень часто встречаются в текстах такого столпа американского внешнеполитического прагматизма, как Генри Киссинджер. Вот лишь несколько примеров из книги Diplomacy:
•• 1. Did [this] mean that American recommendations were not being correctly applied, or that these recommendations were simply not relevant? – Означало ли это, что американские рекомендации неумело реализовывались, или же сами эти рекомендации были неудачными (плохо соотносились с реальной действительностью)?
•• 2. ...the irrelevance of traditional categories of thought when applied to Vietnam. –...неприменимость традиционных категорий мышления к вьетнамской проблеме (в применении к вьетнамской проблеме традиционные категории мышления не работали);
•• 3. Nixon’s critics acted as if the international environment were somehow irrelevant, as if American preferences could be imposed unilaterally. – Критики Никсона вели себя так, как будто на международные последствия можно не обращать внимания, как будто американский подход можно навязать в одностороннем порядке.
•• Несколько примеров из других источников:
•• 4. As a rabbi, I find religiously irrelevant the question of whether events described in the Bible represent historical fact (Time). – Как раввин, я считаю, что вопрос о том, имели ли место в истории события, описанные в Библии, не имеет принципиального значения. Кстати, простую фразу This is irrelevant часто можно перевести русским Это непринципиально (не имеет принципиального значения);
•• 5. Britain’s handling of a Protestant parade... has undermined the position of the IRA’s political wing, Sinn Fein, and rendered the current British-Irish peace irrelevant (Reuters). – Действия британских властей в отношении демонстрации протестантов подорвали позиции политического крыла ИРА – Шинн фейн и лишили смысла нынешнее британско-ирландское перемирие;
•• 6. This meeting had much the flavor of the original Earth Summit. To wit: empty promises, hollow rhetoric,...and irrelevant initiatives (Time). – Эта конференция сильно напоминала первый экологический саммит – пустые обещания, бессодержательная риторика и никому не нужные/бессмысленные инициативы.
•• Слово relevant обычно вызывает меньше трудностей в переводе, но и здесь нередко приходится проявить изобретательность: President Jacques Chirac, a conservative who shares power with Mr. Jospin and who is fighting to remain relevant... (Washington Post). Перевод здесь – во многом дело вкуса или трактовки: ...пытается сохранить политическое влияние/остаться значимой фигурой или даже остаться на плаву. Интересен пример из устной речи (цитата из высказывания вновь избранного президента Американской ассоциации юристов в газете USA Today): It’s important for the association to be relevant, to say that it is speaking for all lawyers. Здесь может подойти большой спектр вариантов, в том числе модное сейчас русское слово востребованность. Я предпочел бы такой перевод: Важно, чтобы наша ассоциация не отставала от жизни, чтобы она могла выступать от имени всех юристов.
