Translating Children's Literature: Some Insights from Corpus Stylistics

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In this article I explore the potential of a corpus stylistic approach to the study of literary translation. The study focuses on translation of children&apos;s literature with its specific constrains, and illustrates with two corpus linguistic techniques: keyword and cluster analysis - specific cases of repetition. So in a broader sense the article discusses the phenomenon of repetition in different literary (stylistic) traditions. These are illustrated by examples from two children&apos;s classics aimed at two different age groups: the Harry Potter and the Winnie the Pooh books - and their translations into Czech. Various shifts in translation, especially in the translation of children&apos;s literature, are often explained by the operation of so-called &quot;translation universals&quot;. Though &quot;repetition&quot; as such does not belong to the commonly discussed set of translation universals, the stylistic norms opposing repetition seem to be a strong explanation for the translation shifts identified.
