Abstrakt(y)
This paper is a follow-up study on the influence of Czech structuralism on Czech translation theory. The pilot research paper (Zehnalová 2015) aimed at introducing Czech structuralism as a tradition firmly rooted in functionalism and distinguished by the semiotic account of language as communication embedded within its social-cultural environment, by dynamic notions of function and meaning-making, by concepts of potentiality, intersubjectivity, open structure and style as a unifying principle that integrates all textual levels and is itself integrated into the semiotic perspective. The potential of Czech structuralism for Translation Studies was demonstrated by developing a model of semiotic text analysis. The present paper further explores these concepts theoretically, with a special focus on the semiotic perspective as an integrating principle and on its usefulness for translation-oriented text analysis. It seeks to substantiate the model by providing further illustrative examples and to draw translation-relevant conclusions.
