Translation Strategies and the analysis of meaning


A. Translation Strategies

According to Roman Jakobson, "All cognitive experience and it's classification is conveyable in any existing language." (Jakobson 1959:238)

According to Roman, only poetry cannot be translated because it is in the form of poetry where the word form in the poem contributes to the construction of the meaning of the text.

The sense may be translated, where the form often cannot.

Literal and Free

Where translating word for word and free of origin does not differ from meaning.


B. The Analysis of Meaning 

Referential meaning (denotation) which related to word as sign or symbol and Connotative Meaning (connotation) the emotional reaction caused to the reader by word.

Chapter 13 : Texts On Speech and Writing

-
 This chapter differentiates between discourse analysis and critical discourse analysis, and reviews the impact and possible uses of both for translation studies. Its key notions are text and genre, and its key areas of investigation are the analysis and description of different genres, text structure and composition, text grammar and text semantics. CDA is interested in how discourse constructs and reflects sociopolitical issues, how discourse reproduces social relations and the performance and negotiation of power, and how ideologies are encoded in discourse. Topics range from gendered discourse and heteronormatively, stereotyping, othering or racist discourse towards the discursive incriptions of socioeconomic conditions, e.g. in view of globalization, poverty or economic crisis. CDA, in turn, has emphasized the role of cognition in theorizing the relation between discourse and context, and the role of metaphor in discourse, especially concerning the potential of pervasive metaphors

(Lefevere 1992a:9)  There are three factors described by Lefevere, namely: Professionalism in the literary system, Patronage outside the dominant literary and poetic system.  There are two components in dominant poetry:  (a) Literary devices: These include the range of genres, symbols, leitmotifs and prototypical  situations and characters.  (b) The concept of the role of literature: This is the relation of literature to the social system in  which it exists  2.

CHAPTER 6 : Discourse and Register Analysis Approaches

 Chapter 6 Discourse and Register Analysis Approaches A. The Hallidayan Model of language and discourse which comprises three variable elements: 1) field: what is being written about, example : a delivery of goods; 2) tenor: who is communicating and to whom, example:  a sales representative to a customer; 3) mode: the form of communication, example:  written. B. House’s Model of Translation Quality Assessment House‟s model operates as follows: (1) A profile is produced of the ST register. (2) To this is added a description of the ST genre realized by the register. (3) Together, this allows a statement of function to be made for the ST, including the ideational and interpersonal component of that function (in other words, what information is being conveyed and what the relationship is between sender and receiver). (4) The same descriptive process is then carried out for the TT. (5) The TT profile is compared to the ST profile and a statement of mismatches orr errors is produced, categor
