Abstract
This thesis comprises 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 problems encountered during the translation process, with special emphasis on culture specific items and the procedures used to translate them. These procedures include addition, literal translation and replacement with a target culture equivalent, Apart from culture specific items, there were also discussions about other issues in the commentary, such as sentence structure and translation of terminology and idiomatic expressions.
Abstract (croatian)
Ovaj se rad sastoji od pet prijevoda s komentarima. Ulomci iz triju knjiga prevedeni su s engleskog na hrvatski jezik (Watching the English: The Hidden Rules of English Behaviour, Sociology Beyond Societies: mobilities for the twenty-first century i The Age of Living Machines: How Biology Will Build the Next Technology Revolution), a ulomci iz preostale dvije knjige s hrvatskog na engleski jezik (Spomenici otoka Lopuda: od antike do srednjeg vijeka i Nasmijati psa i sedam novih priča). U komentarima su prodiskutirani problemi nastali tijekom procesa prevođenja, s posebnim naglaskom na kulturno specifične pojmove i postupke pomoću kojih se oni prevode. Neki od postupaka korištenih u prijevodima su dodavanje, doslovan prijevod i zamjena ekvivalentom ciljne kulture. Osim kulturno specifičnih pojmova u komentarima je bilo rasprave i o drugim problemima, poput rečenične strukture te prijevoda terminologije i idiomatskih izraza.
