Strategic negotiations in translation
This article examines the ideological and cultural significance of Fatma Aliye’s translation of Georges Ohnet’s Volonté, published as Meram (1889), and its prefaces, highlighting her role as translator and social reformer in the late Ottoman Empire. Employing Toury’s preliminary norms, the study contextualises Fatma Aliye’s thematic priorities within the Tanzimat era’s interplay of Western literary influences and Ottoman moral values. Prefaces au…
A (re)positioning of imitation in translation studies
Scholarly discourse in translation studies continues to engage extensively with the conceptualization, scope, and boundaries of translation. This paper, which we believe contributes to this discourse, seeks to explore Ümit Deniz’s Murat Davman crime fiction series through the lens of ‘imitative translation,’ as proposed by Leo Tak-hung Chan, and to (re)examine the concept of imitation in translation studies. Initially presented as original within…
Translation and adaptation studies on common ground
When claims emerged that Ümit Deniz’s Murat Davman crime fiction series (1956–1974) was an adaptation of Mickey Spillane’s Mike Hammer series (1946–1996), they were quickly debunked. The claims, however, prompted questions about whether Deniz’ series may be an adaptation of other novels Deniz translated into Turkish. This article reads Deniz’ corpus with the tools of intertextuality and translation theory and characterizes his series as both a co…
Muhavere as a Strategy for Reconciliation in Ottoman Translation History
The Tanzimat (Reorganisation) Period, which coincided with the end of the 19th century in the Ottoman Empire, sparked efforts towards modernisation in society. In the context of modernisation, translation occupied a central position in the Ottoman literary and cultural polysystem and played a shaping role with different strategies adopted by translators. It was during this period that “the conflict thesis” arguing for a conflict between religion …
The translation of women within the context of the Ottoman-Turkish women's movement (1868-1935)
The Ottoman Muslim and Turkish women’s movement provides a unique study field for researchers to follow the traces of women’s change and the reconstruction of gender roles during the modernisation process initiated in the Ottoman Empire and continued in the transition period from a centuries-old empire to a nation-state, the Turkish Republic. It also sets a perfect example in terms of demonstrating how feminism can acquire different meanings when…
Creating a national crime fiction through allegory translation
“Foreign Language Creation” and “Textless Back Translation”
The aim of this article is to examine the first two books in Jason Goodwin’s detective Yashim series and their Turkish translations in terms of “back translation”. Research subjects are The Janissary Tree (2006) and its Turkish translations by Çiğdem Öztekin dated 2006 and by Fethi Aytuna dated 2016 as well as The Snake Stone (2007) and its Turkish translations by Ali Cevat Akkoyunlu dated 2007 and by Fethi Aytuna dated 2017. The theoretical fram…
Lawmaking through translation
This article examines the role translation played in the encounter between legal systems through the examination of the Ottoman Penal Code (1858), which was drafted using the French Penal Code (1810) as the source. The results obtained through the comparative textual analysis of the codes in Ottoman Turkish and French are discussed with respect to the historical/legal circumstances pertinent to the Ottoman modernization/westernization in the Tanz…
