The aim of this paper is to explore the significance of self-reflection in the process of building translation competence in novice translators. The paper describes various concepts and models of translation competence that have emerged in recent years. When considering the acquisition of translation competence as a continuous process, it is important to precisely define its starting point. The tests used to assess students’ skills prove their proficiency, but they do not give any insight into the translation process itself. For this reason, this paper briefly presents the state of research on the translation process, with particular emphasis on the attempts to record this process through verbalisations of thoughts. The main part of the paper is a case study presenting the practical application of self-reports in the translation course. The conclusions of this study may be useful for designing translator training curricula and verifying educational results.

Niniejszy artykuł przedstawia problemy związane z przekładem Contos exemplares Sophii de Mello Breyner Andresen. Bada w jaki sposób przekład łączy ukazywanie aluzji kulturowych i nawiązań intertektusalnych z potrzebą zachowania stylu oryginału. Porównanie oryginału i przekładu, połączone z wyjaśnieniem przebiegu procesu decyzyjnego tłumacza wskazuje, że określenie cech charakterystycznych dla oryginału i obranie określonej normy początkowej pomaga w ustaleniu priorytetów, jakimi tłumacz będzie się kierował. Niemniej jednak w praktyce często konieczność zachowania poetyckiego stylu oryginału wpływa na techniki stosowane przez tłumacza.

: The article attempts to analyze the causes of Taras Szevchenko’s loneliness in his personal life through the scientific apparatus of Carl Gustav Jung’s analytical psychology. The dynamics of the processes that took place in the inner spheres of the poet’s soul, struggling throughout his life with the trauma of orphanhood, shows that it was the mother complex that largely conditioned his complicated relations with women. Exploring various aspects of the poet’s intimate biography, including content from the areas of the individual unconscious, allows researchers to overcome the one-side perception of his character and creative legacy, which, until recently, was limited to mostly historical-literary and social-political interpreta - tions. The study of Shevchenko’s phenomenon provides for a comprehensive approach, taking into account, among other things, suppressed (unconscious) motives for his actions, creative impulses and unrealized plans.

This article explores the textual and geographical interstices in Edward Said’s foundational text, Orientalism (1978; “Afterword” 1995) as well as some aspects of the post-Orientalist legacy. By focusing on the representation of women, sexual dissidents and gender outlaws as part of the “UnSaid,” I aim to demonstrate that these interstitial spaces dissolve the Saidian East/West binaries.

This article compares the socialist and post-socialist reception of William Golding’s classic novel Lord of the Flies (1954) in Slovenian serial publications. Taking the socio-political context into consideration, the reasons for the differences in responses to the novel at different periods of Slovenia’s history are addressed. Furthermore, the Slovenian reception of Lord of the Flies is compared to the contemporary reception (in both ‘mainstream’ and socialist publications) in the English-speaking world.

Dans le présent article, nous présentons en préambule la place du texte littéraire dans l‘histoire de l‘enseignement des langues pour passer ensuite à des arguments en faveur de l‘utilisation des textes littéraires en classe de langue. Dans la partie empirique, nous essayons d’abord de déterminer la place de la littérature dans quatre manuels de FLE. Ensuite, nous présentons les résultats des entretiens semi-dirigés que nous avons effectués avec six enseignantes slovènes tout en leur demandant leurs avis sur la littérature dans l’enseignement des langues. Nous terminons en évoquant la question des textes adaptés, souvent utilisés en classe de langue étrangère.

The article reveals the peculiarities of ontological mappings involving ethical concepts in the text of the Bible. The paper hypothesizes that ethical concepts as abstract phenomena are understood as physical entities and living beings, therefore there must be corresponding metaphorical projections, which underlie their conceptualization. The metaphor is viewed from two perspectives: within the classical and conceptual metaphor theories. From the perspective of the classical theory, metaphor is a literary expressive means, part of figurative language, which consists in using one word instead of the other for the sake of drawing attention or attaining poetic or elevated style. From the conceptual perspective, metaphor is a way humans perceive and conceptualize the objective reality by means of understanding complex abstract ideas or phenomena on the basis of some simple concrete things from the central life experience. This is carried out by means of projection of the source domain features onto the target domain, the latter being more complex than the former. Ontological metaphoric transferences with the target ethical concepts, which are found in the Bible involve two superordinate source domains: PERSON and THING. The extension of these two primary metaphors, which make up the central mapping is represented by a number of hyponymic domains, each of which is discussed separately. Besides the extension, the article pays special attention to the elaboration of metaphors, which involves the extension of the conceptual zone and projection of other source domain features, different from the central ones. The research infers the conclusion that the use of cross-domain mappings plays an important role in conveying ontological and deontological messages since such type of narrative helps to deliver the essential message to the broader audience most efficiently as the more complex moral implications expressed in this way are conceived through simpler ideas and notions.

In Tao Lin's early books Eeeee Eee Eeee (2007), Bed (2007), Shoplifting from American Apparel (2009), and Richard Yates (2010) vulnerability is linked to a lack of context. Passages and sentences are semantically removed enough from each other that a space of vulnerability opens in which the unexpected can happen. Using the work of Quentin Meillassoux, Judith Butler, Jacques Rancière, and Levi Bryant, among others, this sense of vulnerability is argued to be the primary experience of our lives, but we often forget it. Lin's work makes this primary vulnerability visible in the three works analyzed using three different techniques: incomplete information, withdrawn context, and a monstrous vulnerability. In this sense, the author makes his writing vulnerable to the very problems that it foregrounds.
在陶林的早期著作《Eeeeeeeeeee》（2007年）、《Bed》（2007）、《Shoplifting from American Apparel》（2009年）和《Richard Yates》（2010年）中，脆弱性与缺乏背景有关。段落和句子在语义上彼此之间的距离足够远，以至于打开了一个漏洞空间，在其中可能会发生意想不到的事情。在昆汀·梅拉索、朱迪斯·巴特勒、雅克·兰齐埃和李维·布莱恩特等人的作品中，这种脆弱感被认为是我们生活中的主要体验，但我们经常忘记它。从这个意义上说，作者使他的写作容易受到它所预示的问题的影响。
