| Summary: | This study aims to examine the translation procedures of the stylistic devices (SDs) from Vietnamese into English. Specifically, this thesis was carried out to investigate the commonly used SDs, i.e. antithesis, simile and metaphor in “Thời xa vắng” by Lê Lựu and their English translational equivalents in “A Time Far Past”. 218 samples related to these SDs in Vietnamese and their English equivalents were collected from these books to support the investigation. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches were applied in order to help the researcher achieve the aims and objectives proposed. Furthermore, after studying the findings of the thesis, it was discovered that many different procedures of translating suggested by Peter Newmark were used to translate these SDs from Vietnamese into English. Finally, I hope that the results of the study could provide teachers and learners of English as well as Vietnamese with a better understanding of translation procedures from Vietnamese into English in terms of SDs, and giving some suggestions for further research and implications for language teaching and learning as well. |
