"Se avessi le ali, sicuramente lo farei Perderei il mio cuore per un uccello o per il sole nel cielo. Mi concederei a una folata di vento, e Disturberei i giardini dove volano gli angeli.

Potrei allontanarmi dal mio mondo, Andrei a ballare su una nuvola d'argento. Immergendo me stesso nei venti che turbinano; Ascoltando mentre fischiano ad alta voce.

Quando pioverà sarò lì a ridere, Cascata tra le gocce che cadono. Andrò, e sarò lì a cantare, Il tuono, i miei tamburi, per sostenermi.

In tempi tranquilli, spiegherei le mie ali, Galleggiando, addormentato, ancora sulle brezze. Senza mai pensare all'amore o all'odio, Questo Nuovo Mondo sarebbe la mia completezza..."

~ Noah Chen ******************* "If I had wings, I sure would I'd lose my heart to a bird or the sun in the sky. I would give myself to a gust of wind, e I would disturb the gardens where angels fly.

I could walk away from my world, I would go dancing on a silver cloud. Immersing myself in the swirling winds; Listening as they whistle loudly.

When it rains I'll be there laughing, Waterfall among the falling drops. I'll go, and I'll be there to sing, Thunder, my drums, to back me up.

In quiet times, I'd spread my wings, Floating, asleep, still on the breezes. Never thinking of love or hate, This New World would be my completeness..."

Il nome Hazel

Mi sono sempre chiesta cosa significasse, etimologicamente parlando, il nome “Hazel” e oggi ho scoperto (casualmente devo dire la verità) la sua origine.

[QUESTION]: Earlier on Minekura Sensei’s blog, it said “Hazel’s name originated in a combination of the saké name Beisun and the word angel, ‘enzeru’.” Did you think of Hazel’s full name, Hazel Grouse, as referencing a hazel grouse (ezoraichou in Japanese)? I thought they sounded alike somehow, so I wondered if they were connected. (Penname Yellow Adder, Tokyo City) [Minekura]: Wow, you noticed! When I decided on Hazel’s name, I decided to make a pun off the grouse. Now I can say that I’d already decided he would have a connection to Ukoku, so I thought a bird name would be good. Basically, in my manga there are a lot of bird names (laughs).

fonte: http://saiyuki.wikia.com/wiki/Saiyuki:_Saiyuubito_Q%26A_%28p73%29

Lo traduco per chi non fosse molto abile nell'inglese:

[DOMANDA]: In precedenza sul blog della Sensei Minekura si è detto che il nome “Hazel” è originato dalla combinazione del nome del saké Beisun con la parola angelo “enzeru”. Ha mai pensato al nome intero di Hazel, Hazel Grouse, come a un riferimento al francolino di monte (ezoraichou in Giapponese)? Ho pensato che suonavano simili in qualche modo, quindi mi chiedevo se fossero collegati. (Nome di penna Yellow Adder, città di Tokyo) [Minekura]: Wow l'hai notato! Quando ho deciso sul nome di Hazel, ho deciso di fare un gioco di parole sul tetraone. Ora posso dire che avevo già deciso che avrebbe avuto una connessione con Ukoku, così ho pensato che un nome di uccello sarebbe stato buono. In sostanza, nel  mio manga ci sono un sacco di nomi di uccelli (ride).

Interessante davvero! Questa cosa non la sapevo proprio,io pensavo fosse,eventualmente,di origine ebraica perché la fine del nome “Hazel” termina con “el” e in ebraico vuol dire “D-o” (non ho messo la “i” per rispetto alla tradizione ebraica,ma avete già capito a chi mi riferisco),in origine indicava un dio del pantheon dell'area semitica siro-palestinese e mesopotamica,ma nell'Ebraismo è uno dei tanti epiteti di D-o. Pensavo che la cosa fosse rafforzata anche dal simbolo che medaglione che porta Hazel (mi riferisco al Manga,dove è palesemente un stella di David),ma la cosa è più semplice XD XD bene ora so come disegnare Hazel nella sua forma animale.

Se vi state chiedendo com'è il francolino di monte ecco una sua immagine:

The Vouivre [medieval French folklore]

Also called Guivres, Vouivres are monsters from medieval French mythology. They are monstrous snakes (‘Vouivre’ is derived from the Latin ‘vipera’ which means serpent) with the head, wings and hind legs of a dragon and horns on the forehead (which are absent in some descriptions). It was not uncommon for medieval illustrators to portray snakes with one pair of wings and one pair of legs, especially in early medieval bestiaria (for example, my profile image, which depicts a mythical emorrosis snake from the Royal MS 12C XIX bestiary). Although those often featured feathered, bird-like wings whereas the vouivre had leathery wings, much like the ones dragons usually have in modern fiction and late medieval illustrations. 

Extremely aggressive creatures, they are known to attack people without provocation. Vouivres are semi-aquatic and spend most of their time in pools or ponds. They cannot stand the sight of naked humans, so they will flee if you take off your clothes. 

Basically, this creature was a precursor to the wyverns of modern fiction.

About SMT Nocturne’s Italian localization

(This post was initially meant to be a submission for @eirikrjs, then I realized that making my own post would give me less of an headache with the added pictures, so here it is. This might very well just be my first and last post on Tumblr)

Yesterday some SMT III previews dropped, and since the only thing I care about regarding that game is its localization, mostly the Italian one, I immediately looked at that. There's some interesting stuff, I swear.

First of all, about MegaTen and Italian: if we aren't counting Catherine, Persona 5 Royal was the first game in the series that got translated. French and Germans got "Lucifer's Call" (which afaik didn't have a great translation either), but we weren't so lucky, so the only translations we got are P5R and P5S'. Both of them are definitely based on the English script, even if I wouldn't rule out the chance they actually checked the Japanese script for some minor stuff.

About P5R's translation... it's mostly fine. It's got some typos and whatnot, but for a game that massive it's nothing unusual. As for the "mythological department", it doesn't look like they did much research on their own. The two most interesting things are Alilat which got changed to Allat (and the translated description has an added "also known as Alilat", which is nice) and Thunderbird which got changed to Wakinyan, probably because "Uccello del tuono" didn't fit. One thing I will never get about P5R though is what happened to エル・ジハード, the Electricity skill. It was Narukami in Persona 4, then Jihad in Persona 4 Golden, then Wild Thunder in Persona 5 and Royal... but in Italian it's "Dio del tuono" (God of Thunder). Really, that's still a mystery to me. Plus, Izanagi-no-Okami’s Myriad Truths became Verità letali (Lethal Truths) and the “ARM PC” DLC accessory became DECK. Don’t ask me what that means.

There really isn't much to say about P5S. Since the game is smaller the translation got better, there's just some typos here and there and some minor slip-ups but nothing major. It didn't add much mythologically-wise, so, moving on.

Now, Nocturne is the first mainline SMT game that gets the treatment, so I was pretty interested in how they would change the demon races (or species, as they're called in Italian apparently). I was pretty sure they'd just get the English->Italian treatment and that's exactly what happened, but there's still interesting stuff that happened, such as...

Brute: Orco (Ogre). I'm not sure how I feel about this one yet. It sure is... interesting. It kinda fits, since the onis are "japanese ogres", but at the same time I don't feel like it's "generic" enough to be the name of a whole race of demons. It's basically the reason I'm making this post. Plus, "Orco" is also Orcus’ italian name.

Fiend: Diavolo (Devil). Just like the English term, it's used both for the Devil and, well, devils, mostly of the christian kind.

Night: Oscuro (Dark). This one just missed the point, since they're supposed to be "night demons". Oh well. I guess night is dark.

Yoma: Yoma (Yoma). Yeah.

Wilder: Selvaggio (Wild). Not much to say. I like it better than the English one.

Fallen: Caduto (Fallen). It's the same term we use for "fallen angel" (angelo caduto), so it was pretty much the obvious and obviously correct choice.

Fairy: Fata (Fairy). It's pretty much only used for female entities, personally I think Folletto would've been more fitting. It refers to (mostly) mischievious little creatures (mostly) from european folklore.

Haunt: Spettro (Specter). Works fine.

That's all the races I could find. Orco definitely steals the spotlight for how interesting it is, but there's some more food for thought in there. I didn’t even consider the original Japanese names since the translation is based on the English script and we all know (?) how different the English names for races are from their Japanese counterparts.

Here's some more stuff unrelated to races:

Reason: Visione (Vision). I know it's not kotowari, but it works better than a more literal translation like Ragione would have. It's meant to be Vision as "an idea for the future". If I had to choose a term, I think I'd go with Principio, which means "beginning" and is also used for "moral principles". I really like Visione though.

Will o' Wisp: Will o' Wisp (Will o' Wisp). Dunno why they didn't change its name to "Fuoco fatuo", which is literally "Ignis fatuus" and is commonly used. Pretty weird. Plus, Jack-o'-Lantern has dashes. Will o' Wisp does not. I am going mad.

Demi-fiend: Mezzo-diavolo (lit. Half-devil). Obviously, they thought that the "Fiend" in Demi-fiend is the same as the Fiend race, and who wouldn't, just by looking at the English script? As for the "Mezzo": the "demi" in Demi-fiend comes from demigod, demi+god, which in Italian is semidio, semi+dio. Our "semi", however, is much more commonly used than the English "demi", so Semi-diavolo, Semi-demone or whatever would be nowhere near as "special" as Demi-fiend is. Mezzo-diavolo, on the other hand, loses that mythological appeal, but that "zz" makes it sound kinda derogatory, which I think is pretty fitting. It reminds me of mezzosangue (half-blood). I've seen some Italian fans hating this term with burning passion, but most of them would've probably hated every other choice as well.

In conclusion, I'm really glad we're finally getting translations, and so far they've been pretty good imho. I'd like them better if they were translated from the Japanese script, but that wouldn't really be an issue if the English translations were closer to the source material. In a post like this I'm obviously focusing on the "bad stuff", but all things considered, even if I wish we got something better, I'm pretty satisfied with the end result.

"IO SO PERCHE' CANTA L'UCCELLO IN GABBIA" di Maya Angelou

(Poco conosciuta in Italia, in America Maya Angelou è diventata un vero mito, una paladina dei diritti umani, portavoce del grido di dolore della popolazione afroamericane, le donne in particolare.)

So perché canta l’uccello chiuso in gabbia

 Un uccello libero salta sulla schiena

 del vento e fluttua fino a valle,

 alla fine della corrente, e intinge un’ala

 nell’arancione dei raggi del sole

 e osa rivendicare il cielo.

 Ma un uccello che si trova nella sua stretta gabbia

 può vedere raramente attraverso le sue sbarre di rabbia

 le sue ali sono tagliate e le sue zampe legate

così apre la gola per cantare.

 L’uccello in gabbia canta con un temibile trillo

 di cose sconosciute ma ancora sospirate

 e la sua melodia si sente sulla collina distante perché

 l’uccello in gabbia canta la libertà.

 L’uccello libero pensa a un’altra brezza

 e agli alisei delicati attraverso

 i sospiri degli alberi

 e ai vermi grassi che aspettano scintillante d’alba

 un prato e lui nomina il cielo come suo.

 Ma un uccello in gabbia si erge sulla tomba dei sogni

 la sua ombra grida sopra un urlo da incubo

 le sue ali sono tagliate e le sue zampe legate

 così apre la gola per cantare.

 L’uccello in gabbia canta con

 un temibile trillo di cose sconosciute

 ma ancora sospirate e la sua

 melodia si sente sulla collina distante

 perché l’uccello in gabbia

 canta la libertà.

"Immaginate di essere uno spirito. Fate mentalmente un passo di lato, staccatevi dal corpo fisico, dai vostri problemi ed emozioni. Siete uno spirito, maestoso, leggero, potente ed onnipresente.

Immaginate di ingrandire le vostre dimensioni, riempite la stanza, il palazzo, la strada, la città...

Non ci sono frontiere per uno spirito, non ci sta nelle misure terrene, può essere ovunque nello stesso momento. Anche voi, potete essere grande quanto l'Universo, potete viaggiare, mutare la forma.

Immaginate di toccare le stelle con la testa. Crescete, crescete... Potete contenere tutte le stelle. Brillano dentro di voi, diventano la vostra forza. Ora, a secondo della vostra volontà, potete rimpicciolirvi o ingigantirvi, e mutare la forma.

Immaginate di trasformarvi in una fonte di luce, in una sorta di arcobaleno, che può assumere la forma di un uccello, un fiore o di un angelo.

Come un raggio di luce, cambiando forma, correte... nell'Universo.

Immaginate di essere arrivati alla fonte centrale dell'Universo: è un gigantesco sole che occupa tutto lo spazio davanti a voi. La sua energia è chiara, calma, irradia la saggezza e l'amore. Respirate questa energia. E' vostra.

Immaginate di rimpicciolirvi gradualmente e di ritornare sulla Terra, nel vostro corpo. Sentite la densità e le frontiere del corpo. Avvertire il pavimento con i piedi.

Fate alcuni respiri profondi e aprite gli occhi. Vi sentire riposati e pieni di forza."

SCIAMANO BAHRAH *********************** "Imagine that you are a spirit. Mentally step aside, detach yourself from the physical body, from your problems and emotions. You are a spirit, majestic, light, powerful and omnipresent.

Imagine enlarging your dimensions, filling the room, the building, the street, the city...

There are no borders for a spirit, it doesn't fit in earthly measures, it can be anywhere at the same time. You too, can be as big as the Universe, you can travel, shapeshift.

Imagine touching the stars with your head. Grow, grow... You can contain all the stars. They shine within you, they become your strength. Now, according to your will, you can shrink or grow bigger, and change the shape.

Imagine transforming yourself into a source of light, a sort of rainbow, which can take the form of a bird, a flower or an angel.

Like a ray of light, changing shape, you run... in the Universe.

Imagine that you have arrived at the central source of the Universe: it is a gigantic sun that occupies all the space in front of you. His energy is clear, calm, radiates wisdom and love. Breathe in this energy. It's yours.

Imagine gradually shrinking and returning to Earth, in your body. Feel the density and boundaries of the body. Feel the floor with your feet.

Take a few deep breaths and open your eyes. You feel refreshed and full of strength."

SHAMAN BAHRAH

Richard Armitage reads from The Garden of Angels

The Garden of Angels is David Hewson's latest novel, a story set mostly in Venice during World War Two, but also moving to later generations. The narrator is Richard Armitage whose collaboration with David on an adaptation of Romeo and Juliet won an Audie in 2018. Here Richard reads the opening of the book in which a young Nico Uccello is listening to his grandfather, Paolo.
