R. R. Tolkien, especially \u003ci\u003eThe Lord of the Rings\u003c\/i\u003e, are marked by their author's professional interest in the history of English. This study shows how philological features such as nomenclature, archaism and echoes of Old English poetic forms have been reflected in a selection of published translations into Germanic and Romance languages. It demonstrates how current translation theory based on a hermeneutic approach can explain translators' compensation techniques such as the use of analogous historical resources in the target languages, and how these can preserve literary and poetic effects. In doing so, it also offers a survey of characteristic stylistic features in the source text.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e René Dirven, Allan Turner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3631535171\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783631535172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der W\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/18\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.46d","brand":"René Dirven","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125997695231,"sku":"9783631535172","price":79.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_65514ae2-d111-4230-98dd-dd0179db79aa.jpg?v=1687445717","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/translating-tolkien-philological-elements-in-allan-turner-9783631535172","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
