  • BONES ! the Last Battle by C.S
    BOOK BONES ! The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis ! Key Insights • The planetary influence in this novel is Saturn, a planet associated with age, weakness, decay, darkness, and death. Saturn exerts a bitter influence on the Earth, and tends to evoke two drastically different responses (“for bane or blessing”): 1) to abandon faith and hope in a Goodness beyond the evils of this world (the “Tash response”), or 2) to persevere and believe in spite of all evidence to the contrary (the “Aslan response”). • The influence of Saturn on the earth should lead good people to contemplate what is really true and really important; Saturn’s bitter wisdom should deepen their faith not destroy it. This points to the Christological significance of Saturn and the central theme of The Last Battle: the presence of Christ in human loneliness and suffering (“hope when all other lights have gone out”). • Ginger is an example of the first kind of response to Saturn, the response that loses faith in Aslan. Greeted with the idea that Aslan is “nothing more” than Tash, Ginger abandons his faith in anything divine and becomes a ringleader in the “Tashlan conspiracy.” King Tirian exemplifies the obedient response to Saturn: though he has temporary doubts about Aslan’s goodness, he perseveres in hope and acts as a good and faithful king of Narnia—even though there is very little evidence that Aslan cares about the plight of his people. • This novel differs from the others in many ways: an adult protagonist (makes the book older and more mature, like Saturn himself), no clear quest/objective, several narrow misses (“if only”); situation for the company gets continually worse, every hope frustrated by some unfortunate, unforeseen circumstance; far more characters die in this novel as well—every major character tastes death before the novel ends.

    UNIVERZITA PALACKÉHO V OLOMOUCI FILOZOFICKÁ FAKULTA Katedra anglistiky a amerikanistiky A Comparative Analysis of Two Czech Translations of The Chronicles of Narnia with Focus on Domestication and Foreignization Diplomová práce Autor: Bc. Kateřina Gabrielová Studijní obor: Angličtina se zaměřením na tlumočení a překlad Vedoucí: Mgr. Ondřej Molnár Olomouc 2016 Prohlašuji, že jsem tuto diplomovou práci vypracovala samostatně a uvedla úplný seznam citované a použité literatury. V Olomouci dne ............................ Podpis:............................ Motto: What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Acknowledgement I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor Mgr. Ondřej Molnár for his supportive and patient guidance, as well as to my family and friends for their endless support. Abstract This Master’s thesis aimed at comparing translating of proper names in two Czech translations of The Chronicles of Narnia from the point of view of domestication and foreignization. Domestication and foreignization are global translations strategies dealing with to what degree texts are adjusted to the target culture. One of the challenges related to domestication and foreignization is translation of proper names. In the research, proper names are analyzed via the two translation strategies. The translations used for the analysis were performed by the translators Renata Ferstová and Veronika Volhejnová respectively. Key words domestication, foreignization, naturalization, alienating, translation of proper names, The Chronicles of Narnia Anotace Tato diplomová práce se zabývá komparativní analýzou překladu vlastních jmen ve dvou českých překladech Letopisů Narnie z pohledu domestikace a exotizace. Domestikace a exotizace jsou definovány jako globální překladatelské strategie, které řeší do jaké míry je překlad přizpůsoben cílové kultuře. Jeden z fenoménů, který je zahrnut do problematiky domestikace a exotizace je překlad vlastních jmen.
