Abstract

The main aims of the study are to work out the framework of consciousness and unconsciousness aspects of ideology and their effects on translation. For applying the aforementioned items, the researchers put Death of a Salesman (1949) play by Arthur Miller and its translation by Ali Asqar Bahram Beygi (1984) under scrutiny. Furthermore, the present paper makes an effort to analyze sensory experience, practical, reflective and reflexive aspects at the consciousness level of ideology. This study is a corpus-based, comparative, descriptive and non-judgmental analysis of the English-Persian parallel corpus. The obtained result proved the fact that awareness rising in these two major aspects of ideology for the analysis of the source text (ST) and the target text (TT) help translators to choose the closest equivalence in the social and situational context of the ST and the TT. Moreover, statistical results indicate that the most frequent aspect of ideology is at the consciousness level with 81%.

Abstract

Çalışmanın temel amacı, ideolojinin bilinç ve bilinçsizlik yönleri ile bunların çeviri üzerindeki etkilerini ortaya çıkarmaktır. Araştırmacılar, yukarıda belirtilen öğeleri uygulamak için Arthur Miller'ın Death of a Salesman (1949) oyununu ve Ali Asqar Bahram Beygi'nin (1984) çevirisini mercek altına almışlardır. Ayrıca bu makale, ideolojinin bilinç düzeyinde duyusal deneyimi, pratik, yansıtıcı ve dönüşlü yönlerini analiz etmek için bir çaba sarf etmektedir. Bu çalışma, İngilizce-Farsça paralel külliyatın derlem tabanlı, karşılaştırmalı, tanımlayıcı ve yargılayıcı olmayan bir analizidir. Elde edilen sonuç, kaynak metnin (ST) ve hedef metnin (TT) analizi için ideolojinin bu iki ana yönündeki farkındalığın, çevirmenlerin kaynak metin ile hedef metnin sosyal ve durumsal bağlamında en yakın denkliği seçmelerine yardımcı olduğunu kanıtlamıştır. Ayrıca istatistiksel sonuçlar, ideolojinin en sık görülen yönünün %81 ile bilinç düzeyinde olduğunu göstermektedir.
