Zfilmování literární díla jakožto forma intersémiotického překladu / Film Adaptation of a Literary Work as a Form of Intersemiotic Translation

This interdisciplinary work which draws on translation studies, semiotics, aesthetics, literary and film science deals with intersemiotic translation. The thesis will attempt to describe, explain and classify this kind of translation within the current translation theory and apply this knowledge to a specific translational situation. This situation is a comparison of an interlingual translation from English into Czech and an intersemiotic translation, which is the film adaptation of the novel. The theoretical starting point of this work is in particular the work of Anton Popovič, followed by Roman Jakobson, Jan Mukařovský, Jiří Levý and Patrick Cattrysse (see bibliography).According to Anton Popovič's theory, literary work and film adaptation can be described as two types of metatext. Semiotically, these metatexts consist of content (story) and form (expression). In the product of translation, shifts can be found at both of these levels and they serve as a source for an in-depth analysis. This thesis does not aim to evaluate but to describe the shifts in the intersemiotic and interlingual translation. The main hypothesis whose validity is supposed to be verified in this work is the assumption that some shifts are common to both types of transfer while others occur only within one of them....
