Situational analysis as a theory-methods package for the sociology of translation
The study introduces the sociology of translation as a research area and explores the potential and limits of using situational analysis (SA) as a theory-methods package for examining the production, distribution, and consumption of book translations of literary texts as a specific type of cultural production. Drawing on constructivist assumptions, SA emphasises the constructing of the research situation; this informs the concept of the productio…
The profession of literary translator in the age of artificial intelligence
The article examines the evolving landscape of literary translation in an era in which artificial intelligence has been developing rapidly. Drawing on semi-structured interviews with literary translators from English into Czech, we demonstrate how their professional identity is reshaped by the tension between three interconnected dimensions: the pursuit of the sense of purpose and recognition, the systemic vulnerability of the profession, and eve…
Three worlds of literary translation production
Purpose Our aim is to answer the question whether Bourdieu’s theory of the bipolarity of commerce and art can serve as an effective analytical framework for researching literary (translation) production. Design/methodology/approach We rely on Bourdieu’s cultural field theory, combine grounded theory and situational analysis methodologies and conduct semi-structured interviews with actors involved in the production, circulation and reception of li…
A methodology of translatological and sociological cooperation in data collection, analysis, and interpretation
The aim of this study is to present a methodology of joint translatological–sociological cooperation in data collection, analysis, and interpretation to study translation strategies and norms. In order to identify norms, research cannot be restricted to translations: it is imperative to include translators and their practice as well. Thus, key research methods drawn on in this study are textual analyses and semi-structured interviews. The use of …
Historical dynamics of cultural policy
The study analyses the dynamics of the Czech policy of literary translation from English (1918–2018). Translation policy is considered a part of cultural policy, whose definition connects cultural policy ‘proper’ with a wider cultural context. The periodisation applied is based on historical turning points dividing the investigated timespan into three periods. The conceptual framework used is inspired by Bourdieu’s social field theory, adding to …
Research into Transformations in Everyday Life
The article focuses on the reflection of my research experience in obtaining qualitative data using narrative interviews. I confronted my own research experience with the phenomenological methodology of Alfred Schütz, dramaturgical sociology of Erving Goffman, and interpretative sociology of Max Weber. The article discusses three problems that emerged during a longitudinal study of everyday life transformation in the long-term horizon of sixty ye…

Collective Memory and Collective Identity of Hlučín Region Inhabitants in the 20th Century
The Hlučín Region is a small border area in the Moravia-Silesia Region. Its history is specific. Over 25 years in the 20th century, its border shifted three times and its inhabitants’ nationality also changed three times. The region was annexed by the German Reich in 1938 and its inhabitants gained the rights of citizens of the Reich, with the obligation to enlist in the Wehrmacht, the armed forces of Germany. These historical turning points and …
