Zooming in on What Tymoczko Has Enlarged: English-to-Czech Literary Translation and the Holistic approach to Translating Culture

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In her project on Enlarging Translation, Empowering Translators, M. Tymoczko has proposed a holistic approach to translating culture, pointing out shortcomings of what she calls linear approaches (2007, 232-249). The paper explores how Tymoczko?s more comprehensive and strategic approach, whose advantages are easy to see, interacts with current literary translation from English, the most translated language into Czech, both theoretically and on the level of specific texts. The paper focuses on two areasof translation of fiction from English to Czech: firstly, on contemporary literary fiction originating in those parts of the world which have left its mark on the current globalized world and constitute, consequently, cultures the gap between which andthe Czech culture is rather small; and secondly, on translation of English texts mediating native, and more distant, cultures and sensibilities to the Czech readership.
