David Katan’s Translating Cultures

Some people are good at communicating the essence of the original text, others are not translated correctly or others can not reproduce the original text, so this choice should be done with caution. In the most famous Odyssey translation, there are two works: Fagles and R. Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald's "Odyssey" translation is strikingly attractive for high school students who learn English through introduction and textual structure, language and attention to detail.

Writers who set up works overseas participate in the cultural translation process and are representative of the foreign customs of the writer's family's spectators. As with the language translation described in the previous chapter, these cultural translations involve interpretative decisions by the author first, then by the reader. Will foreign cultures be presented as funny absurd, mysterious, horrible, or exciting new possibilities world?

As a disguised allegory for friendly neighbors, imperial opponents, conquest of mature lands, lost paradise, or the family society itself, how foreign societies relate to the home of the writer or our own hometown Do you have. In this chapter, we will explore ways in which writers explore the wider world and pay particular attention to how foreigners will reflect and oppose the world at home.
