Annotated translation:Johnson, Paul. 2008. The Little People of the British Isles. Glastonbury: Wooden Books.

The bachelor thesis is comprised of two parts - the translation and the commentary on it. The first part is the translation of the original book by Paul Johnson The Little People of the British Isles, describing different species of the little people of the territory. The translation contains the main text of the book and selected sections of the glossary relevant to the text. The commentary part includes a translation analysis of the source text, an analysis of translation problems, and a typology of translation shifts. The analysis is based on Christiane Nord's model of intratextual and extratextual factors. The following part is focused on problems, shifts, and a translatology method , mainly employing the schemes by Jiří Levý and Anton Popovič. Furthermore, other books on translation studies were used as secondary sources for the thesis. Commented problems and shifts are demonstrated on illustrative examples.
