Abstract:

This thesis considers the practice of Bible translation from the perspective of contemporary translation studies and provides a fresh translation and accompanying commentary of aspects of Paul's Letter to the Romans. The emergence of functionalism, particularly skopos theory, in the latter part of the 20th century is seen as a key moment in the development of translation theory. The thesis argues that it has significant advantages over source text orientated approaches which have traditionally dominated Bible translation practice. An essential history documents this evolution of theoretical de

Abstract:

La Skopos Theory è una teoria introdotta nel mondo della traduzione dal linguista tedesco Hans Joseph Vermeer. Skopos è una parola di derivazione greca che significa “fine” o “scopo”. La teoria elaborata da Vermeer si basa sull’idea che ogni testo abbia uno skopos che determina i metodi e le strategie secondo le quali esso debba essere tradotto. Oltre alla Skopos Theory, che sarà la base della tesi, i testi a seguire verranno analizzati seguendo altri autori, quali Mona Baker e Laurence Venuti, che si rifanno all’idea di skopos e analizzano molto dettagliatamente la figura del traduttore come

Abstract:

After thousands of years of medical practice, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has developed into a unique medical theoretical system. As a result of the deepening exchanges between China and foreign countries and the extensive spread of TCM therapies and health culture, an increasing number of people are longing to develop a deeper understanding of TCM. TCM is imbued with Chinese cultural and historical elements, and its nomenclature and treatment methods are very different from Western medicine. Due to the lack of systematic theoretical guidance, translators resort to varying translation s

This study investigates the translation of song lyrics and presents an analysis of translation outcomes. While the majority of previous studies regarding song translation focuses on the translation of lyrics from musicals and operas, this study focuses on the translation of popular song lyrics. The lyrics of eight German songs and their English versions were analysed using the approximation approach (Franzon 2009) which divides smaller textual units into the categories paraphrase, metaphrase and addition. The target texts (henceforth TT) were also categorised according to Peter Low’s (2013) so

Abstract:

In un contesto di lingue minoritarie, come nel caso del gaelico scozzese, la traduzione letteraria verso lingue maggioritarie può avere una natura ambivalente: se da un lato garantisce la diffusione di una letteratura altrimenti isolata, dall’altro potrebbe perpetuare degli squilibri di potere che spesso caratterizzano i rapporti tra la cultura dominante e la cultura minoritaria. Se questo è specialmente vero nella traduzione dal gaelico all’inglese, lingua la cui espansione è avvenuta a scapito della cultura gaelica, è possibile che anche nelle traduzioni italiane, prodotte generalmente trami

ABSTRACT This essay deals with translation issues, mainly in regard to text function and text norms, which arose during the transfer of a German source text, situated within the field of tourism, into a Swedish target text. Special attention was paid to anglicisms, a typical feature of German marketing language and also a key stylistic feature of the source text at hand. A challenge to translators in general is which textual and cultural considerations, besides considerations of language, should be taken into account in the translation process.

In order to attract the customers’ first sight, most of traders rack their brains trying to come up with gimmicks for their goods. For this reason, when translators translate slogans of commercial products or advertising scripts, they need to help the consumers grasp the information of the products quickly and effectively－such as functions and the purposes of the products－to achieve the aim of p

The conventional understanding of the liaison interpreter views the professional as a language broker between two or more individuals not speaking the same language. The manner in which this language gap is bridged, according to the conventional understanding, is through copying verbatim what is said in one language (the source language) and pasting it (into the target language). The conventional understanding of the profession and its professionals neglects the multi-faceted nature of the profession along with the many challenges with which its professionals are faced.

Through comparing the two Chinese translations, the current study aims to find out the differences and the translation strategies of children’s literature. Translating for children is different from translating for adults in two aspects: children’s social status and development. In addition, children have limited language proficiency and life experience, and th

The theoretical part presents the concept of translation norms (a starting point for reconstructing the translation method chosen), Skopos theory, the theory of metatexts, phenomena pertaining to self-translation (the new concept of "self-non-translation", i.e. the decision of an author-translator not to translate their own work) and Popovič's (1975, 1983) "typology of stylistic

This is because the development of responsibility is usually associated with the aims of the education process and the attainment of adulthood.

Abstract:

This master thesis presents a theory of distribution of alcohol consumption by a Norwegian sociologist Ole-Jørgen Skog (1985), which has had an influence on many alcohol policies. Skog's theory described the relationship between the average alcohol consumption in the population and the consumption at all levels of consumption (from light to heavy drinkers). A change in the average consumption of the population is always followed by a change at each level of consumption; Skog describes this relationship as log-linear (multiple) and argues that the largest changes appears at the level of light d
