THE PROBLEM OF RENDERING ANTHROPONYMS ‘SPEAKING NAMES’ IN LITERARY TRANSLATION
Journal Title: Записки з ономастики - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue 18
Abstract
The article dwells on the peculiarities of rendering anthroponyms-chracteronyms in English literary translations of Russian and Ukrainian classical prose works. The research tackles different approaches to the study of proper names in onomastics, stylistics and translation theory. It is aimed at distinguishing the most adequate and appropriate translator’s strategies and tactics in the complex rendering of the specific features of various anthroponyms in literary texts. The research was conducted on the basis of the English translations of the literary classical works «The History of a Town» by M. E. Saltykov-Shchedrin and «Chasing Two Hares» by M. Starytskyi. The perspectives of further investigation are seen as the extension of the factual literary basis with the addition of the literary works in the non-Slavic languages.
