Abstract

This translation project is a translation of Christine Hannah's historical novel “The Women.” The aim of the project is to introduce Ukrainian readers to a unique work of art that combines historical context, social issues, and psychological depth of characters. The novel tells the story of Frances “Frankie” McGrattan, a young nurse who served in the US Army Nurse Corps during the Vietnam War, and touches on themes of post-traumatic stress, society's indifference to veterans, and women's self-realization in wartime. The main task of the translation is to preserve the author's style, convey the cultural and historical context, and convey the emotional impact of the work on the reader. The project examines the features of the historical novel as a genre, the syntactic, lexical-semantic, and stylistic devices characteristic of the text, as well as ways to adequately reproduce them in Ukrainian. The project consists of an introduction, two chapters, conclusions, a list of sources used, and appendices. The first chapter contains a translation of the novel from English into Ukrainian. The second chapter includes comments on the translation decisions made, justification for the use of appropriate techniques, and reproduction of the stylistic features of the original.
