Jiří Levý: founder of Czechoslovak translatology
This monograph evaluates the scientific legacy of Jiří Levý, the founder of Czechoslovak translatology. This collective monograph is the work of eleven authors from the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic. The book, composed of ten chapters, clarifies Jiří Levý's innovative contribution to translation theory and the ideas of his successors, presents the inspirational nature of Jiří Levý's translatological concepts for translation criticism and praxeology, evaluates Levý's literary-theoretical thinking in relation to information theory, philosophy, and literary aesthetics, and finally, shows the significance of his innovative thinking for translation didactics. Jiří Levý's theoretical concepts exhibit extraordinary anticipatory potential thanks to his interdisciplinary approach to communication, literature, and culture from the perspectives of linguistics, literary science, and cybernetics. With this thinking, Jiří Levý was ahead of his time. In this collective monograph, the authors attempt to examine selected aspects of the scholar's work and evaluate their significance for the work of today's theorists, educators, and practitioners of translation. The editors of the volume are Zbyněk Fišer and Ivana Kupková.
