Abstract:

This book examines the occurrence of manipulation in the translation of
British and American press articles into Polish for Forum. Przegląd Prasy
Światowej magazine in the People’s Republic of Poland, under preventive
censorship. The existence of source text (ST) manipulation in translation is
discovered through comparative analyses of STs and target texts (TTs). The
text analyses investigate topics, editorial features, translation techniques,
and the presence of Newspeak characteristics. This study shows the existence
of methods manipulating the STs within all analytical areas chosen in order to
create a positive view of the communist authorities’ activities and promote an
optimistic image of the political, economic and social situation in the
country. 

It offers a wide range of theory and practice concerning the specialized
language of politics and propaganda, translation theories, strategies and
techniques, and represents a good source of knowledge and practice for both
novice translators and professionals.
