Abstract

Translation suffers from many inherent limitations, one of which is translating a STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> PUN meaningfully in another language. In the present paper, we will analyze how STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> PUNs have been dealt with in the five English translations of The Gulestiin of Sa'di (1258) by E. Rehatsek (1956), Eastwick (1852), R. Burton (1888), and J. Ross (1823). Representing some definitions of STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> PUN by both TL and STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> SL scholars, the researchers try to typify STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> PUN in both TL and STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> SL. Although, perceptibly, there cannot be claimed to exist one clear cut solution to this problem, there seems to be some STrategies that can be taken into consideration as effective and useful ones; consequently, IT is attempted to touch upon some possible STrategies for translating STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> PUNs, and then presenting a brief analysis of the STrategies employed by the translators of the work in rendering the STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> PUNs efficiently. IT will be determined whether they have resorted to a particular STrategy, and whether they have been consistent in utilizing a specific STrategy they might have realized as the most effective one in STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> PUN translation. The last section draws some general conclusions. IT seems noteworthy to mention that the research was conducted with the intention of providing a description in order to come to a better understanding of one of the most challenging areas of translation, namely STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> PUN translation and emphasizing the fact that, though there are some STrategies for rendering STyle="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> PUNs, one cannot claim that they may be absolutely practical in reality - as is evident in the case of Sa' di's Gulestān.
