Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

In this question, we need to assess which option is not part of the translation theories discussed in the 20th century.
Option a: 'Elegance of translation.' This phrase does not correspond to a recognized theoretical framework or named theory within 20th-century translation studies; it sounds more like a subjective quality or stylistic aim rather than a formal theory. Therefore, this option is likely incorrect as a named theory.
Option b: 'Polysystem.' Polysystem theory is a well-known 20th-century framework developed by Itamar Even-Zohar that analyzes literature and translation within a system of competing literary genres and national traditions, so this is clearly included in 20th-century translation theories.
Option c: 'The science of translation.' The term 'science of translation' has been used in various scholarly contexts to describe systematic, empirical approaches to translation studies during the 20th century, so it is also considered part of the theoretical landscape of that era.
Thus, among the options, the one that does not correspond to a formal 20th-century translation theory appears to be option a, 'Elegance of translation.'
