Description
The paper will focus on translations of Canadian women's writing in Croatia, taking into consideration translations from English and French, primarily translations published in books, anthologies and literary magazines, but also volumes of poetry and other genres. The findings of our research include the search for patterns that occur in the translation of specific works and authors, as well as determining which authors and literary genres have been translated most frequently, what the (inter)national publishing and specific cultural context was at the time of the publication of individual works, and what circumstances might have influenced the selection of particular Canadian women authors for translation. They were first translated into Croatian in 1970s, but the majority of works were published in the past two decades, and especially in the past ten years.
Cet article a pour sujet les traductions de l'écriture féminine canadienne en Croatie, publiés dans les livres, dans les anthologies et dans les magazines littéraires. Les traductions de l'anglais et du français sont pris en considération. Le but est de déterminer quels genres littéraires et quels auteurs féminins ont été traduits le plus fréquemment et dans quelle époque. Les premières traductions des textes écrites par les écrivaines canadiennes ont été publiées en Croatie pendant les années 1970, mais la plupart des traductions n'étaient publié que pendant la première décennie des années 2000. Ce travail présente aussi le contexte culturel dans lequel les traductions en question ont été faites et publiés.
