Research Relevance and Potential Impact
The indicated dissertation is of a great interest to Translation Studies, in general, and to Drama
translation critics in particular. The researcher explored a wide range of theories, principles and
approaches mainly related to literary translation and tested their relevance and applicability
to Drama Translation. She actually demonstrated an in-depth knowledge of the features and
characteristics of Shakespearean texts and the best strategies to handling them within the
source culture environment taking into consideration the historical context, the social context
and the textual context. She also suggested a series of target-oriented criteria to be taken into
consideration when it comes to translating – and performing – such texts into Arabic.
With an excellent command of English and a clear style, the researcher used a wide range
of relevant references and the adequate academic tools to analyze her corpus in a deep way
before concluding with clear responses to the problems of Drama Translation and suggesting a
series of strategies and techniques to translate such type of texts.
It is my firm conviction that the present research is a substantial contribution to the
understanding of Drama Translation problems. Undoubtedly, it will have a considerable impact
in the field of literary and drama translation.
