Essays on Translation

Multilingual Issues

TRANSLATOLOGIE – Studien zur Übersetzungswissenschaft

There are no easy answers to one of the most complex exercises man can face, as the English critic F. R. Leavis argued. Since the early 1980’s A. Lefevere, who has been a major theoretical influence for most translators, in the last few years, insisted on the role of the translator as an interpreter, to the extent that, far from being an objective act, translating should never attempt the goal of objectiveness if it also claims honesty.

The Representation and Function of Christmas in English Literature of the 19^th and 20^th Centuries

Studien zur Anglistik und Amerikanistik

Christmas is the most popular annual holiday in the Western world. Its popularity is reflected in English literature by the continual publication of Christmas poems, stories and carols, both old and new, as well as scholarly works on its cultural history and its social and psychological aspects. Considering this „Christmas boom“, the neglect of Christmas in literary studies is quite striking.
