Research Plan

• Hypothesis:
• In news editorial translation, some translators give more space to their putat

ive readers than others when they deliver ST to its TT readers.

• Questions:
• If there are some differences in the space, What difference is between TTs?

What causes the differences?, Institutions ideology translator involved, or t ranslator’s choice, and so one.

• Or If the difference is not much bigger, do genre features or translation univ

ersals work in translation?

• Methodology:
• I will have some extracts from news editorials provided by four different new

papers(JA, DA, HG, CH).

• As an analysing flame, I plan to adopt the engagement system provided by

Martin & White(2005)

• Thank you

Research Plan

• Before: My research interest has been in how interpersonal meaning is shifted in news edi

torial translation between K and E.

• I did some research into how the degree of detachment and commitment of ST writer is cha

nged in TT.

• Also I examined what caused the change based on translation universals.
• From previous research results, I learned the degree of assertion of the TT voices are not r

elated to ST’s voices. Rather, it seemed they are heavily influenced by the position of lang uages involved. When the position of source language is higher than TL, translators tend t

• become more ST oriented. Therefore, in Korean to E Translation
• I found out this is mainly because translation
• After: Now I would like to see differences between different TTs from engagement aspect

.

• I hypothesize that some translators give more space to their putative readers than others.
• If there are some differences, what makes them?, Institutions ideology translator involved,
• r translator’s choice, and so one.
• Or If the difference is not much bigger, does genre feature or translation universals work in t

ranslation?

• I will select some extracts from news editorials provide by different new papers.
