Elimination of textual space and worlds in situation of communicative disparities
In the case of bilingual text communication an emerging conflict between the text-target and its translation puts the task how to eliminate lacunae considered as cultural gaps. equal value (equivalence) of the communicative significance of two texts and their liability involves the identity of primary and secondary readers’ reactions, but for a number of reasons (e.g. spatial and temporal distance, language barriers, cultural barriers, ideological filters, the audience age range, etc.), the equality of communication effects is only approximate. the present article discusses the possible translation strategies and methods when eliminating textual space. the author considers aspects of interpretation as (re)construction of mental models when translating fiction.
