- Title
Food Symbolism and Imagery in the Polish Translations of William Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor.
- Authors
Jaworska-Biskup, Katarzyna
- Abstract
The paper presents Polish equivalents of William Shakespeare's food vocabulary based on The Merry Wives of Windsor. The analysis entails all Polish versions of the comedy, both its nineteenth-century renditions and contemporary post-war readings. The research aims to demonstrate how the lexical choices of Polish authors affect the interpretation of the play; in particular, it seeks to answer the question of how the imagery and symbolism of Shakespeare's food vocabulary were altered in the process of translation.
