Vom 1. bis zum 8. April 2019 fand im Übersetzerhaus Looren die erste Tschechisch-Slowakisch-Deutsche Übersetzerwerkstatt statt. Sie wurde im Rahmen der "ViceVersa"-Reihe des Programms TOLEDO veranstaltet. Neben dem Deutschen Übersetzerfonds und der Robert
Bosch Stiftung wurde die Veranstaltung vom Auswärtigen Amt, der Schweizer Kulturstiftung Pro Helvetia, dem České literární centrum und dem Literárne informačné centrum gefördert.
Im vorliegenden Beitrag werden die Ergebnisse einer Studie präsentiert, die in ausgewählten Märchen die Entwicklung der substantivischen Diminutiva im Deutschen und im Tschechischen von der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts bis zur Gegenwart untersucht hat. Im Fokus der Analyse stand vor allem die Wortbildung, in Verbindung mit ihrem Kontext wurden gleichzeitig auch die Funktionen der Diminutiva im Untersuchungszeitraum verfolgt.
This paper has the double objective of introducing the reader to a derivational and comparative valency dictionary compiled from 2015 to 2018 at Masaryk University in Brno and of analyzing certain cross‑linguistic contrasts between German and Czech nominal derivation that are apparent from the material covered in the dictionary. The analysis suggests that there are fewer restrictions on forming verbal nominals in Czech than there are on forming nominalized infinitives in German.
Translation is a complex activity which does not involve merely the translation of the given text from the source language to the target one, but also means observing many other aspects which need to be preserved in translation. What is more, every type of text has different requirements, depending on stylistic norms, cultural aspects etc. This paper focuses on popular science literature for children. In this area, the precision of the translation is not the sole criterion, but also the degree of equivalence in the comprehension of the source and target language texts plays a substantial role. Taking the example of a popular science book entitled "Tiere im Hohen Norden" by Hensel and Thiemeyer (1994) and its translation into Czech entitled "Severská zvířata", based on Göpferich's dimensions of comprehension, it is examined how the comprehension is preserved in the process of translation. Furthermore, it explores how and where modifications occur and their impact on the resulting translation.
The paper will focus on the analysis of selected linguistic markers of argumentation structures in Czech and German. On the basis of corpus‑based analysis, I work with the assumption that argumentation structures are one of the parameters of equivalence in translation. The theoretical starting point for this analysis is the hypothesis that the linguistic form of arguments has a significant impact on their identification and potential. In my paper, I will pursue the following specific questions: 1) What are the linguistic markers of argument strength / weakness in German and in Czech? 2) How do the mutual relationships between structure and linguistic outcome change as a result of the translation? 3) Might the effects resulting from the translation of the argumentation structures be interpreted as processes of explicitation and implicitation? 4) What are the advantages and disadvantages of working with a parallel corpus as a basis for the analysis of the translation of local argumentative structures? Since the structures of argumentation are one of the elementary fundamentals of a text, issues connected to their translation represent one of the central research interests in Translation Studies.
