Abstract:

With the purpose of making the process of legal translation accessible to
investigation, the author resorts to the parametrization of translational
reality as an inalienable component of her translational theory being proposed
here for consideration. The aim is to propose a more precise theory of
legilinguistic translation which compels the author to clearly distinguish
primitive terms and postulates. These latter specify the image (model) of the
reality in question in terms of relevant dimensions used to characterize a set
of translational objects and relations. The dimensions secure a systematic
examination of the translation reality and process. In order to illustrate the
practical application of the parametrization in legal translation, the
discussion concerning this translation approach is limited to certain selected
types of legal communicative communities which is amply exemplified. The
research is based on data and information gathered during an in-depth case
study of translations and parallel text corpora mainly in the field of civil
law including insolvency and bankruptcy law.
