TRANSLATION STRATEGIES: AN INTEGRAL APPROACH

The article focuses on the problem of defining and modeling translation strategies within the framework of an integral approach. An integral approach is an approach to language and linguistic objects that combines different points of view on the same object of study for the purpose of its holistic, multifaceted presentation. This approach is based on a universal integral model of language. Translation strategy from an integral perspective is defined as an integral dispersed object, a general program of actions of the translator aimed at creating a translation text in accordance with the cognitive, social, cultural, linguistic and communicative goals of the author of the source text and / or the initiator of the translation in a particular communicative situation. Translation strategy as an integral object and a general program of actions of the translator characterizes any translation as a whole, we call such a strategy general. Having applied integral modeling to the general translation strategy, we have identified four sectors in its integral model: cognitive, linguistic, cultural and social, the units of which are actualized with the help of the mechanism of communicative activity. Communicative activity is the fifth component of the integral model, activating and uniting the units of all sectors into a single whole. Based on the integral nature of the general translation strategy, we highlight cognitive, cultural, social, linguistic and communicative translation strategies. Each of these strategies is a complex unity of specific strategies that are interconnected and interdependent due to the general and specific objectives of translation and the conditions of communication. Specific translation strategies are integral parts of the general integral strategy and are separated only for research purposes. The study of the integral nature of translation strategies and their correlations based on texts of various styles and genres can be the subject of further research.

Abstract

The article focuses on the problem of defining and modeling translation strategies within the framework of an integral approach. An integral approach is an approach to language and linguistic objects that combines different points of view on the same object of study for the purpose of its holistic, multifaceted presentation. This approach is based on a universal integral model of language. Translation strategy from an integral perspective is defined as an integral dispersed object, a general program of actions of the translator aimed at creating a translation text in accordance with the cognitive, social, cultural, linguistic and communicative goals of the author of the source text and / or the initiator of the translation in a particular communicative situation. Translation strategy as an integral object and a general program of actions of the translator characterizes any translation as a whole, we call such a strategy general. Having applied integral modeling to the general translation strategy, we have identified four sectors in its integral model: cognitive, linguistic, cultural and social, the units of which are actualized with the help of the mechanism of communicative activity. Communicative activity is the fifth component of the integral model, activating and uniting the units of all sectors into a single whole. Based on the integral nature of the general translation strategy, we highlight cognitive, cultural, social, linguistic and communicative translation strategies. Each of these strategies is a complex unity of specific strategies that are interconnected and interdependent due to the general and specific objectives of translation and the conditions of communication. Specific translation strategies are integral parts of the general integral strategy and are separated only for research purposes. The study of the integral nature of translation strategies and their correlations based on texts of various styles and genres can be the subject of further research.
