CULTURE STRATEGY IN TRANSLATING POSTMODERN LITERARY TEXT
Abstract
The article focuses on the major notions of modern translation studies: translation process, translation strategy, translation procedure. Culture strategy due to its hybridity, special linguo-cultural layer, which reflects cultural identity of a multilingual author, is defined as the key point in translating a postmodern literary text. The theoretical assumptions are illustrated on the postcolonial novel “Midnight’s Children” by S. Rushdie.References
