| Abstract | The paper discusses the issue of cultural memory in a translation of literary text. Based on material of Miljenko Jergovic’s story Gurbet and its Polish translation, the article shows how elements of source cultural memory present in the original text are being “lost” when translated to other language and culture. The term of “losing memory” is used figuratively to present the consequences of a translator’s (conscious and/or unconscious) decisions on which specific features of source culture are to be preserved (foreignization) or not (domestication) in the target text. These decisions influence the image of source culture that the reader of the translation can “produce” in the wake of reading. For instance, Polish translation of the story “Gurbet” only partly preserves the memory of Christian-Islamic and Slavic-Ottoman intercultural (or even transcultural) coexistence in the region of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which is one of the main topics and motifs of Miljenko Jergovic’s works. As a result, Polish reader cannot produce the same image of the source culture as the reader of the original. |
