Abstract
This thesis includes five translations with commentary. Excerpts from three books were translated from English into Croatian (Watching the English. The Hidden Rules of English Behaviour, Sociology Beyond Societies. Mobilities for the Twenty First Century and The Age of Living Machines: How Biology Will Build the Next Technology Revolution), and two from Croatian into English (Spomenici otoka Lopuda od antike do srednjeg vijeka and Nasmijati psa i sedam novih priča). The commentary focused on the translation of proper names using different translation procedures. Differences between the translated texts in regard to genre, purpose, audience, etc. affected the final translation solutions provided for proper names. Even though the translation problem in question is frequently dismissed as trivial, the commentary provides an insight into the complexity of translating proper names.
Abstract (croatian)
Ovaj diplomski rad sastoji se od pet prijevoda popraćenih komentarima. Prevedeni su dijelovi teksta iz triju knjiga s engleskog na hrvatski jezik (Watching the English. The Hidden Rules of English Behaviour, Sociology Beyond Societies. Mobilities for the Twenty First Century and The Age of Living Machines: How Biology Will Build the Next Technology Revolution) i dvaju knjiga s hrvatskog na engleski jezik (Spomenici otoka Lopuda od antike do srednjeg vijeka and Nasmijati psa i sedam novih priča). U komentarima se naglasila problematika prevođenja vlastitih imena, kojoj se pristupilo pomoću različitih prijevodnih postupaka. Razlike između prevedenih tekstova u pogledu žanra, svrhe, publike i slično utjecale su na konačna prijevodna rješenja ponuđena za vlastita imena. Iako se ovaj prijevodni problem često smatra trivijalnim, komentarima se pridaje pažnja složenosti procesa prevođenja vlastitih imena.
