Citation
Description A review of a monograph by Klaudia Bednárová-Gibová (2012) focused on translation procedures. Comparing a non-literary text (a legal text of EU directives) and a literary text (fiction, a Christian novel), the study seeks to answer the question if different genres require different translation procedures. The author outlines the most influential text typologies and theories of translation procedures (Nord, Reiss; Newmark, Vinay and Darbelnet, Schreiber). The corpus of texts is subjected to quantitative text analysis, identifying the employed translation procedures.
