Czech translation of Prešeren’s poetry, poems by France Prešeren, F. L. Čelakovský, Josef Hiršal, translating in the Czech culture, Slovene literature in Czech cultureAbstract
In the paper we analyze and compare two translations of Prešeren’s poem Slovo od mladosti (Farewell to youth) as cultural and literary artifacts. We focus on linguistic and stylistic solutions as well as decisions in the context of cultural transfer. First, we research the translation by František L. Čelakovski (1799—1852), published in 1832 in the newspaper Časopis českého Museum from the period of romanticism, and second, the translation of the same Prešeren’s poem by Josef Hiršal (1920—2003), a famous poet of experimental poetry and a well-known Czech translator of his time, published in the book Můj sen šel po hladině (My dream faded on the water surface, 1978). We emphasize on Hiršal's translation from the period of the Czech experimental poetry from the sixtieth and seventieth.
