Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Few people realize exactly how complicated the translation of children’s poetry is. Translators do not only have to adhere to the young readers’ desires and satisfy the adult critics, but are constantly confronted with choices concerning the translation of the ‘play-element’ (structure) and the ‘visual element’ (content) of children’s verses, i.e. the translation of cultural elements, figurative language, pun, nonce words, onomatopoeia, alliteration, rhyme and meter. In addition, their translation strategies are continually

The final version of the epic, generally known as the standard version, was produced about 1200 B.C. in the Babylonian dialect of Akkadian by a priest and scribe named Sin-leqi-unninni. The cuneiform tablets upon which the epic was recorded, were rediscovered during the nineteenth century when European archaeologists started digging in the ancient cities of the Middle East, especially Nineveh.

This research resulted from a concern for serious, authentic texts and the quality of adaptations. This brought the problematics surrounding the Bible and children's Bibles to the fore.

In chapter 2 the logical and magical dimensions of the word (as art) are examined. Chapter 3 is an attempt to define the Bible in literary semantic terms.

In this book, Carroll parodies the accepted style of children’s books of the Victorian Age by mocking the moralistic and realistic expectations. All the poems in the book are parodies of once familiar nursery rhymes, which often conveyed a moral lesson. Translating Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is a challengi

Since the late 1990s there has been an increasing interest in the representation of Balkan culture in the literary works of authors writing in English. Scholars (Bakić-Hayden 1995, Todorova 1997, Goldsworthy 1998, Norris 1999, Hammond 2010) have shown how literary representations of the Balkans have reflected and reinforced its stereotypical construction as Europe’s “dark and untamed Other. However, the contribution of translated literature in the representation of these images has rarely been considered, and in particular that of children’s literature has been seriously neglected.

Abstract:

兒童文學故事經典Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (以下簡稱Alice)創作於1865年的英國。在原著作者路易斯·卡羅爾（Lewis Carroll）筆下，故事主角愛麗絲展現了好奇勇敢、能思善辯、富有主見的兒童形象，她的漫遊奇遇詮釋了她由脆弱被動到強勢自主的形象轉變。1922年，愛麗絲藉由趙元任的Alice華文譯本第一次進入華文語境，由此展開她在華文地區（中國大陸地區、港澳台地區、新加坡和馬來西亞華人地區）迄今長達93年的旅行。旅程中，隨著譯本出現時間和地域的不同，被構建出的愛麗絲華文形象互不相同，構建這些華文形象的成人譯者亦扮演著不盡相同的角色。本研究以文學理論家愛德華·賽義德（Edward Said）的「旅行四階段」和「歷史與情境」論為基本理論框架，並融入比較文學形象學（Imagology）中「自我--他者」這一核心概念帶來的啟示，由此推導出符合「歷史與情境」且強調人為因素的關鍵概念，即由成人自我構建出的他者「兒童形象」概念。在上述理論架構引導下，本研究首先對1922--2014年間的338個Alice華文譯本的譯本特點和出現原因進行分析和闡述，勾畫出愛麗絲在四個華文地區兩段旅程五條路線的旅行全景，再以四個華文地區中的6個Alice華文譯本為個案代表，深入探討成人譯者在構建愛麗絲華語形象過程中採取的翻譯策略、方法和來自其他參與者（如出版者、繪圖師

The emotive connotations of diminutives in English are a source of controversy among scholars, while the Slavic languages of Polish and Russian are considered ‘diminutive-rich’ with diminutives that convey diverse nuances.

However, an analysis of Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland and several of its translations into Polish and Russian shows that English has many diminutives, some of which are ‘untranslatable’, while many diminutives can be easily translat
