This paper presents an ongoing PhD research to examine, from a descriptive viewpoint, and hence annotate, the translational norms of the socio-culturally marked discourse of racism, and the shifts remarked during the discourse transfer from a source language (EN) to two target-languages (EL&ES). Our aim is to present problems and impediments that arise during the annotation process applied in this study. Our work so far reveals issues related both to the annotation methodology and schemata and the implementation of the annotation process in the software utilised.

More specifically , the study is an in-depth examination of the main traits attributed to Golden Dawn by eleven Greek and European newspapers, of the causes to which the phenomenon is linked, and of the solutions proposed for it in the Press. Such an examination is pursued using analysis of key lexemes and by critically and contrastively tracing their co-articulation into meaningful discourse units in the journalistic corpus. In other words, this study addresses a simple, yet to date unanswered and perhaps not even evoked question: how are the traits and the political aims of Golden Dawn, as well as its discourse, perceived by society, through media?

The underlying hypothesis is that how the issue of migration is presented by the media reflects and/or triggers social attitudes and mainstream stances, in terms of solidarity and/or racism, and that such attitudes and stances may be subject to marked shifts, or changes, consistent with the development and escalation of the migrant crisis. To the extent that they can be observed, such variations merit attention and critical analysis, considering both the importance and the scale of the crisis, on a national, regional and European level. The critical explanatory frame used in this study draws on detailed corpus-driven findings.

nationalist discourse, and specifically aims to demarcate the discoursal and rhetorical premises on which Golden Dawn, Greece’s extreme right political party, elaborates its ideological and theoretical space. Golden Dawn has historically been considered an extremist political party, with a neo-Nazi political and social direction. Its political appeal is sharply and steadily on the rise, especially since the start of the Greek recession in 2009, and its discourse is highly influential. Our analysis profiles the lexical semantics of the organisation’s discourse, by also categorising its main concepts, and charts its intratextual coherence structures, in order to demarcate the principal topoi of its polarised and emotionally-loaded rhetoric. The latter is shown to exhibit all the traits that make up an ideological edifice. Finally, the intertextuality of Golden Dawn’s discourse, i.e. its direct connection with Nazi discourse, is explored by contrasting it to Hitler’s Mein Kampf and Goebbels’s texts and transcribed speeches. This comparison is also corpus-driven and is done on the levels of lexis, of mottoes and of rhetorical propositions (topoi).

It presents preliminary, as yet on-exhaustive, findings and aims to ultimately formulate explanatory hypotheses concerning the emerging norms. Our methodological approach is placed in the framework of descriptive Translation Studies (Toury 2012; Chesterman 2008) and in the school of Critical Discourse Analysis (Fairclough 1985; 1992), relying on Appraisal Theory (Martin & White 2005) to provide and analyse a taxonomy of the racism-elated utterances examined.

Our aim is thus to quantitatively investigate and then socially and register-wise interpret observed patterns (e.g., Mouka et al. 2015) in the translation of Bad Language Words (BLWs, McEnery 2006), in an as yet relatively under-researched area, that of film translation.
In line with McEnery’s remark, in relation to English, that spontaneous spoken discourse is a “much more secure basis for the study of bad language” (2006: 28), and considering that in corpus-wise under-resourced languages such as Greek, the compilation and study of a systematic film corpus is perhaps the only reasonable resource for studying specific traits of oral discourse. Film discourse can in fact usefully represent the oral varieties of a language (Frochini 2012: 90).
In the field of AVT, previous research on the perception and transfer of “bad language” is, for the most part, qualitative (see, e.g., the work of Díaz-Cintas [2001] on the rendition of expressions with a sexual connotation, of Chen [2004] on the Hong Kong Chinese subtitling of English swearwords, of Scandura [2004] on (self-) censorship in subtitling, of Pujol [2006] on the transfer of fuck into Catalan, of Fong [2009] on the translation of vulgarisms and sexually-oriented language, of Greenall [2011] on the non-translation of swearing in subtitling as an example of loss of social implicature, and of Baines [2015] on the use of cues of register for triggering audience reactions to taboo language). This body of research seems to concur to the assumption that this type of language is often omitted or weakened in AVT (Fawcett 1997: 119; Díaz-Cintas & Ramael 2007: 195), accounting for and exemplified on grounds of technical (time and target-text length) contraints (e.g., Díaz-Cintas & Ramael 2007), or as a result of intersemiotic shift on the level of politeness, from an oral to a written mode (e.g., Gambier 2002, in Baines 2015: 437); one that implies downplaying or perhaps censoring “bad language”, which in written discourse is presumably more striking than it is in an oral text: this is the case with film subtitles (see, e.g., Mayoral 1993: 57, in Díaz-Cintas 2001: 51).
By contrast, our work draws on McEnery’s (2006: 1) postulate that “bad language” (and hence, its transfer into another socio-linguistic context, as is the case with AVT) should be investigated systematically, based on ample linguistic evidence, and be considered as a complex social phenomenon, so as to be able to explain “both the source of the undoubted power of bad language and the processes whereby inferences are drawn about speakers using it” (ibid.).
For this purpose, we have compiled: (a) a corpus of transcribed dialogues of four contemporary American films; (b) a corpus of their DVD (i.e. commercial) Greek subtitles; (c) a corpus of their Greek “fansubs” (a genre that is less or not at all subject to self-censorship and technical constraints); and (d) a reference corpus of transcribed dialogues of four contemporary Greek films with a marked use of “bad” language.
Corpora (a), (b) and (c) were aligned, with the aim to statistically investigate BLW-related findings. English BLWs, their corresponding renditions into Greek, and Greek BLWs from the original film corpus (d) have been annotated using McEnery’s (2006: 27) categorisation schema. BWLs in the four annotated corpora have been quantitatively analysed (collocation- and concordance-wise), so as to assess:
(a) the tendency towards a more “standard”, i.e. less “abusive” language in the rendition of BWLs in translated film language, i.e. in the two translation sub-corpora (b and c);
(b) the impact of (self-) censorship on film translation, by statistically comparing and interpreting the corresponding findings from corpora (b) and (c); and
(c) the “status” of translated film language in relation to original film language, by comparing the statistics and the classification of BLWs from corpora (b) and (c) with those of the original film corpus (d).
Not surprisingly, translated film language is found to be more “neutralised” when compared to “natural” film discourse. Thus, self-restriction (or self-censorship) is, indeed, a general pattern, which is to some extent eliminated in the case of fansubs, where subtitlers are not bound by the restraints of the text genre and of the AVT industry. However, research findings suggest that in film translation, the rendition of “bad language” is a considerably more intricate phenomenon. The lexico-grammatical and discourse profiling of Greek subtitles in contrast to original film language suggests that Pym’s (2012: 108) “safety” postulate seems to be at play here, when there are no “ready-made” correspondences. In other words, sociolinguistically, this profiling suggests a reluctance on the part of translators, one that significantly suppresses the source text’s interpersonal metafunction (Munday 2012; Saridakis 2015: 206).

Αφορμές για αυτό αποτέλεσαν κυρίως (α) η έκνομη δράση μελών του κόμματος της Χρυσής Αυγής, και (β) η ψήφιση από το ελληνικό Κοινοβούλιο του νόμου 4285/2014 («καταπολέμηση ορισμένων μορφών και εκδηλώσεων ρατσισμού και ξενοφοβίας μέσω του ποινικού δικαίου»). Αν και η ένταση του δημόσιου διαλόγου για τον προσδιορισμό αυτόν έχει έκτοτε αποκλιμακωθεί σημαντικά, ο εθνικιστικός, ρατσιστικός και ξενοφοβικός λόγος αυτός καθαυτός παρουσιάζει έξαρση. Αποτελεί, κατά την έννοια αυτή, ζητούμενο η συστηματική χαρτογράφηση, στο μέτρο του δυνατού, του λόγου μίσους των ακραίων εθνικιστικών ομάδων.
Στην εργασία μας διερευνούμε τις λεξικές σχηματοποιήσεις του μίσους στον εθνικιστικό λόγο του ελληνικού διαδικτύου. Έχοντας ως υπόθεση εργασίας ότι ο ακραίος εθνικιστικός λόγος είναι έμφορτος με λεξικά στοιχεία αρνητικού χαρακτηρισμού και προσδιορισμού του εκάστοτε Άλλου (Gingrich & Banks 2006), τόσο μέσω της σημασιολογικής προτίμησης όσο και μέσω της σημασιολογικής προσωδίας, συγκροτήσαμε, με τεχνικές web crawling, εκτενές σώμα κειμένων από το ελληνικό διαδίκτυο, και συγκεκριμένα από ιστότοπους, ιστολόγια και φόρουμ συζητήσεων που αυτοπροσδιορίζονται ως «εθνικιστικά». Χρησιμοποιώντας τεχνικές της Γλωσσολογίας Σωμάτων Κειμένων διερευνούμε:
(α) τα λεξικά παραθέματα (collocates) των κομβικών στον εθνικιστικό λόγο λεξημάτων (πχ. Τούρκος, Εβραίος, μουσουλμάνος),
(β) τις κύριες λέξεις-κλειδιά με τις οποίες εννοιολογείται το μίσος, τα παραθέματά τους και τις κύριες συμφράσεις τους.
Περαιτέρω, εξετάζουμε την παραθετική ισχύ (collocational strength) και παρουσιάζουμε κριτικά τα σημαντικότερα παραθετικά σχήματα (collocational shapes) (Baker 2016) των κύριων ευρημάτων της λεξιλογικής ανάλυσης ανά εννοιολογική ομάδα.
