This book explores the various options and techniques available to and used by translators when translating from English to Japanese. The work is rich in both the theory and practice of translation and contains numerous examples from popular texts, ranging from classics to detective novels to science fiction. Drawing on these case studies, the author concludes that the translation of popular fiction has evolved in recent decades and developed as a new text type with its own textual and thematic characteristics. First among these is the preservation of cultural otherness and its representation in a way that is enriching to readers and translators alike"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 211-223) and indexes. 505 0 $a The traditional discussion of equivalence and its relevance to Japanese context -- Particular challenges in dealing with translation between English and Japanese -- Methodology of the investigation and the importance of a systematic text comparison in popular fiction -- Textual analysis (1): linguistic domestication and foreignisation -- Textual analysis (2): cultural domestication and foreignisation -- Stylistic feature of the texts -- Cultural implications. 650 0 $a Translating and interpreting $z Japan. 650 0 $a Fiction genres. 651 0 $a Japan $x Foreign influences. 650 7 $a Fiction genres. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00923772 650 7 $a Translating and interpreting. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01154795 651 7 $a Japan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204082 830 0 $a New trends in translation studies ; $v v. 22. $x 1664-249X 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20190212020141.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=97A4E4FCE96D11E8978F920F97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
