Abstract
This graduation thesis aims to provide a translation of a chapter from Kazuo Ishiguro's novel An Artist of the Floating World, as well as the analysis of categories that are of particular interest (idiomatic expressions, culture-specific words, loan words and intertextuality). The theoretical part contains literary translation guidelines and an explanation of translation procedures, as well as the biographical facts about the author and his literary style. The practical part contains the translation of the chapter and the analysis of 95 examples divided into the categories as mentioned above. The “recommended” procedure for idiomatic expressions is, according to Vinay and Darbelnet (1995), equivalence. This, however, was not always possible due to English having more idiomatic expressions than Croatian. As for culture-specific words and loan words, the best procedures turned out to be calque and borrowing. There were only two examples of intertextuality, and due to context and target culture, adaptation was not necessary and literal translation proved to be adequate.
Abstract (croatian)
Cilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je prevesti poglavlje iz romana Kazua Ishigura „An Artist of the Floating World“ te analizirati sljedeće kategorije: idiomatske izraze, kulturospecifične riječi, posuđenice i intertekstualnost. Prvi dio ovog rada sadržava teorijsku podlogu koja uključuje smjernice za književno prevođenje, tehnike prevođenja i biografske podatke o autoru i njegovom književnom stilu. U drugom dijelu rada nalazi se prijevod poglavlja i analiza 95 primjera podijeljenih prema navedenim kategorijama. Vinay i Darbelnet (1995) navode da je najbolja tehnika prevođenja za idiomatske izraze ekvivalencija, no ona nije uvijek moguća jer engleski jezik ima više idiomatskih izraza nego hrvatski. Kulturospecifične riječi i posuđenice prevedene su služeći se posuđivanjem i kalkovima. U prijevodu su nađena samo dva primjera intertekstualnosti koja zbog konteksta i ciljne kulture nisu prilagođena nego prevedena doslovno.
