Abstract

In the conscience that texts are based on both cultural and linguistic aspects, in this paper, the autor has taken three texts of an illustrated book – A Year Full of Stories. 366 Stories and Poems by Georgie Adams and Selina Young – to analyse what cultural and linguistic aspects might call for choice making between literal and free translation. In the case of illustrated texts, more often than not, such choices are strongly influenced or even dictated by the pictures that come with the texts.
