Ключевое слово: «domestication»

The article focuses on two main strategies of translating culture-specific words and concepts – domestication and foreignization – that were introduced by Friedrich Schleiermacher in 1813 and later described by Lawrence Venuti in his works. The paper presents the choices that a specific translator makes while being a mediator between two cultures and shows how the strategies function in a translated text. The findings were found in the result of a comparative analysis of Boris Akunin’s “Azazel” (the source text) and Andrew Bromfield’s “The Winter Queen” (the target text).
