Techniques for Demonstrating Artistic Mastery in Translation

Abstract

Translation is not merely a linguistic process but an artistic endeavor requiring creativity, cultural sensitivity, and technical expertise. This study explores various techniques employed by translators to demonstrate artistic mastery in their work. Using an IMRAD approach, the paper examines the role of stylistic adaptation, cultural localization, and literary nuances in translation. Empirical findings from comparative analyses highlight the significance of maintaining artistic integrity while ensuring textual fidelity. The discussion emphasizes the balance between literal and artistic translation approaches, offering insights into best practices for achieving excellence in literary and artistic translation.
