Keywords:
creativity, creative translation, freedom in translation, transcreation, neologism, author’s neologisms, re-creation in translationAbstract
The article explores problems of the creative practice in translation work. The emphasis is laid on modern issues in the domain of psycholinguistics and theory of translation. The author substantiates the essence of the key concepts and notions concerning the subject of the research: creativity, components of creativity, creativity and freedom in translation, translation fidelity, transcreation, neologism and the concept of re-creation in translation. The subtleties of translation freedom and creativity are considered on the case-study of neologisms translation peculiarities. The research findings give grounds to conclude that translation of neologisms, in general, and author’s neologisms, in particular, involves a variety of creative strategies to balance the derivative against the creative. Freedom in the choice of TL linguistic and stylistic means facilitates creativity in translation and helps a translator to attain accuracy in conveying the SL concepts into the TL ones.
