THE PECULIARITIES OF THE TRANSFER OF FOOD NOMINATIONS IN THE TRANSLATION OF HARRIS’S NOVEL “FIVE QUARTERS OF THE ORANGE”
The article describes the main functions of food nominations in the novel by Joanne Harris "Five Quarters of the Orange” and the assessment of the adequacy in their translation into Russian. The sphere of gastronomy including the nominations of food and its main qualities is considered, firstly, as an integral part of the artistic world of the studied text; secondly, as a component that determines its national and cultural specifics. Gastronomic inclusions perform a number of functions in the text under study. The nominative function presupposes denoting those everyday realities that are directly related to the world of cooking and consuming food. The symbolic function is associated with the creation of a system of images and an emotionally expressive plane of the text. Another function of food nominations involves their participation in the synesthetic transferences. The analysis of the text of translation shows the complete adequacy in the transfer of the nominative function of gastronomic inclusions and partial adequacy in the transfer of other functions.
