PRAGMATİC FUNDAMENTALS OF THE SKOPOS THEORY

Abstract

In the 1970s, linguistics underwent a reorientation with the pragmatic turn, which at best also paved the way for Translation Studies. The location of language as an action, in which several aspects of non-linguistic realities came to the fore, could not be ignored; especially in translational deliberations. In the context of Translation Studies, the pragmatic turn can be thus described as a detachment from linguistically based theories and as an approach towards functionalist and action-theoretical attempts. Consequently, the function of pragmatics cannot be completely ignored in these approaches. The Skopos Theory by Katharina Reiß and Hans J. Vermeer is a product of this turn, but what are these pragmatical foundations that are involved in the Skopos Theory? Pragmatics provides an important basis for deliberations in Translation Studies, because translation is always "context-dependent". The translator must transfer every source text from a certain cultural source-oriented situation into a target-oriented one. Contrastive and intercultural pragmatics provides the translator with a basis, for the translation process, in particular in the framework of Translation Studies and Skopos Theory. This article focuses on examining language-use, culture and communication in consideration of the aspects of pragmatics in Reiß's and Vermeer's theory.
