    Tango music and dance had its origins in the poor quarters of Buenos Aires in the late nineteenth century. It sprang from the interaction between local rhythms, including Afro-Cuban elements, and the European influences brought by immigrants, especially from Spain and Italy. In its early stages, tango was rooted in the working-class life of Buenos Aires, just like “lunfardo”, the linguistic melting pot that is the dialect of tango culture. Tango later gained wider acceptance, especially after it was developed into a ballroom dance in Paris, and it was popularized in songs dealing with the life and loves of the common man, and the ups and downs of city life. The greatest singer of these songs was Carlos Gardel (1890-1935), who also starred in numerous tango-themed films. Astor Piazzolla (1921-92) was one of the most outstanding players of the “bandoneón”, the accordion so characteristic of tango music. Among women singers, Tita Merello (1904-2002) was remarkable for the feisty defiance of her songs. The tango, in its many manifestations, is the living portrait of the River Plate area in general, and of Buenos Aires and its people in particular.

  • 80 empower

    •• empower, empowering, empowerment

    •• Empower to give power or authority to (Oxford American Dictionary).
    •• Многие считают, что это не более чем модное словечко, за которым мало что стоит. Я думаю, что это не совсем так. Видимо, слово вошло в широкое употребление взамен гораздо более простого help. Говорю так потому, что почти всегда глагол to empower можно заменить глаголом to help, и «смысловой катастрофы» не произойдет. Но в то же время ясно, что не всем нравится быть в положении стороны, которой помогают. И это следует учитывать при переводе. Поэтому, например, одной из целей конференции ООН по положению женщин объявлялось empowering women at the grass roots level, а рекламная брошюра одного из кенийских банков называется Empowering the Common Man: Cooperative Bank of Kenya. По-настоящему удачных переводов этого слова мне не встречалось, а заимствование его русским языком затруднительно (дело в том, что русский язык легче ассимилирует слова греко-латинского происхождения, чем англосаксонские, особенно многосложные). Пробовались разные варианты, особенно для слова empowerment: предоставление возможностей, повышение роли, даже обретение своей (достойной) роли, своего места и т.п. Все это довольно неуклюже, хотя смысл в общем передает.
    •• Мне кажется, что в основе, в глубинном значении слова empowerment лежит идея самостоятельности (или, как раньше говорили, самодеятельности) – обретения самостоятельной роли или содействия в достижении самостоятельности. В английском языке нет слова, адекватно выражающего отличие формальной, политической независимости (independence) или технической автономии (autonomy) от самостоятельности как способности «стоять самому». До некоторой степени этот пробел восполняет слово self-reliance (опора на собственные силы). Исподволь ту же роль выполняет и слово empowerment. Если согласиться с такой трактовкой, то легче понять и перевести такую, например, фразу: When I speak in urban grade schools, their No. 1 issue is rain forest! That is disempowering, when these communities are surrounded by incinerators and toxic dumps (Time). Пожалуй, говорящий упрекает школьников в отсутствии самостоятельного мышления, просто в несамостоятельности.
    •• Итак, сегодня это слово в моде. Как будет дальше – мне неведомо. Может быть, оно просто выйдет из моды. В устном переводе не грех иногда пойти на упрощение («жертву качества») и просто сказать помощь. А глагол to empower совсем не обязательно «терминологичен» и в конкретном контексте легко поддается переводу. Вот пример из статьи в журнале Newsweek, посвященной католической монахине матери Терезе: In order to pull people out of poverty, it is important first to empower them with the hope that change is possible. В этом контексте вполне адекватен такой, например, вариант перевода: Для того чтобы избавить людей от бедности, важно сначала окрылить их надеждой на то, что перемены возможны.
