THEORETICAL VIEWS ON TRANSLATION IN THE PREFACES OF UKRAINIAN 17th-CENTURY BOOKS
Journal Title: Закарпатські філологічні студії - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
The aim of the paper is to study the theoretical consideration of translation, its process and strategies from the perspective of the reconstructed Ukrainian 17th-century translation theory and criticism. Ukrainian authors voiced their ideas about the necessity, demands and strategies of translations in the prefaces, dedications and afterwords, mainly in the translations of religious texts, but also in some grammars and dictionaries. The theoretical system of perceiving and assessing translation is reconstructed on the basis of synonymic terms. The reconstruction makes it possible to state that Ukrainian 17th-century authors had a rather elaborated system of writing about and judging on translations. However, their principles were not summarized in a separate philological treatise. Text was interpreted as a holistic phenomenon, whose target-language form was due to changing because of the practices of its usage (pronouncing and singing). The main criteria of the successful rendering of the original were linguistic norms and contextual contents, though the translators also paid attention to the aesthetic features of texts.
