Necip Mahfuz'un Miramar Romanının Çevirilerinin Karşılaştırılması

Humanity has given great importance to literature and has used literature for the benefit of humankind. One of the societies that attach importance to literature is Egypt. Egyptian Necip Mahfouz was one of those who promoted his country in the field of literature and received the Nobel Prize in literature. One of the author's leading symbolic novels is Miramar. In this novel, the author describes Egypt in the 1960s. Miramar is the name of a hostel in Alexandria, Egypt. The Miramar hostel describes six various characters in a way that could be a metaphor for a country. Mahfouz conveys the psychology of the Egyptian people through these characters. The author is known in the world and in our country, and he has become more well-known after receiving the Nobel Prize in Literature. The author's works have also been translated into Turkish. In this study, the author's novel Mirâmâr and the comparisons of its translations into Turkish by using the interlanguage are analysed in terms of translation equivalence and non-equivalence. Fifteen translation passages from the author's book will be given comparatively. While some of the author's novels are translated directly from Arabic into Turkish, some of his works are translated into Turkish from the intermediate language English. Since these translations are translated from the intermediate language to the target language, Turkish, there is a significant loss of meaning, And this prevents, the aesthetic enjoyment of the text. In order to get aesthetic pleasure from the translations, Translations must be translated properly from the source language to the target language. When making these translations, it is important to make semantic translation instead of formal translation. Yüksel Peker and Suat Ertüzün, who translated the novel Mirâmâr into Turkish from the intermediate language, caused loss of meaning. It is possible to make better translations in Turkey and in the world through translations from the source language to the target language, and it is of great importance that this is done by competent hands. This will be possible with the orientation of those who know Arabic to the fields of translation.
