Stylistic Translational Issues Within English-Speaking Political Texts

Journal Title: Fìlologìčnì traktati - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 2

Abstract

This article studies stylistic issues of translation in the frame of English-speaking political discourse. The key difference between stylistic devices and expressive means, tropes and figures of speech is defined. The most problematic aspects of rendering stylistic tools in political texts are distinguished. Allusions as a translational challenge of rendering nationally biased units in the target language are studied. The translational methods and means within the given political texts are characterized and the chosen equivalents in the target language are researched. The efficient variants of rendering metaphors, euphemisms, neologisms, clichés and abbreviations within Ukrainian are examined.
