Incredible Adam Spark. Between translation and transformation
Náprstek, Marek ; Ženíšek, Jakub (advisor) ; Matuchová, Klára (referee)
This BA thesis is concerned with the translation of a part of the novel The Incredible Adam Spark written by a Scottish author Alan Bissett and its consequent stylistic analysis. This thesis deals mainly with the question of reproduction of a literary work in a different socio-cultural environment that it was created in, it discuses the achievable degree of objectivity and authenticity during the process of translation and finally it concentrates on the role of a translator as a mediator between the writer and the reader. One of the examined fields is also the question of the translator's involvement in the reformulation of the translated material, in other words, his role as a partial co-author, who is incapable of depersonalized transmission of information between the writer of the source text and its recipient. The thesis itself is divided into three main parts. First part provides theoretical framework dealing with the general question of the process of translation and its principles. Second part consists of the translation of a part of the text in question. Third part concludes by analysing the chosen procedures and encountered problems in relation to the theoretical framework mentioned above.

Baštová, Kateřina ; Tobrmanová, Šárka (advisor) ; Jettmarová, Zuzana (referee)
This bachelor thesis comprises a translation of a part of a book called Translation and Identity by Michael Cronin, published in 2006 and a commentary on the translation.

Nord and the translation method was inspired by translation theory of J. Levý and partly also by the theory of P. Newmark. The translation shifts were based on the theory of A. Popovič. The translated text inquires into the interconnection of the modern and constantly changing society.

In relation to this it explores the place of an individual and a group in the complex global society and the differences in...
