„Elegia na śmierć żony” Kakinomoto no Hitomaro a problem przekładalności poezji starojapońskiej
(Księgarnia Akademicka, 2003) Olszewski, Krzysztof; Uniwersytet Jagielloński
The paper is a detailed analysis of two translations (English and Russian) of Kakinomoto no Hitomaro's (660-710) "The Elegy for My Dead Wife" (included in the first imperial anthology of Japanese poetry, "Man'yoshu"). This analysis focuses on the problem whether to avoid translating the so-called 'pillow-words' (makura-kotoba) - fixed epithets, which were one of the most important rhetorical figures in the old Japanese poetry. Many specialists find them conventional and thus lacking any important information. However, in spite of their conventionality, makura-kotoba play often an important role in constructing of the set of deep allusions within the structure of the poem.

Świat powieści Murakamiego Haruki – pomiędzy postmodernizmem a literaturą popkultury. Deformacja wizji artystycznej w polskich przekładach
(Księgarnia Akademicka, 2006) Olszewski, Krzysztof; Uniwersytet Jagielloński
The article is an analysis of Polish translations of two novels by Murakami Haruki: "The End of the World and the Hard-boiled Wonderland" and "South of the Border, West of the Sun". This analysis focuses on the problem of the accuracy of Polish translations and shows - without any doubt - that even very slight mistakes may cause the lose of some important factors from the deep structure of the novels. Even in the novels by Murakami Haruki - perhaps one of the most widely known contemporary Japanese writers - the classical Japanese culture and aesthetics are often the factors, which remains unknown (or lost) in translations.
