Özet
Translation in the 21st century is not just seen as translating grammatical rules, syntaxes, andvocabulary. It is seen as a powerful tool in shaping cultures. In today’s world, countries and culturesdo not have equal power, they have unequal cultural power that affects others. All the countries,especially after the 1990’s, realized the importance of the power of their culture. This power is called“soft power”. In order to reinforce their power and hegemony in the world, countries try to improvetheir soft powers and try to be culturally effective on the others. This cultural inequality and powerrelations are studied in Translation Studies because translation is one of the most powerful tools forcultural interactions and relations. In this context, Lawrence Venuti’s “Domestication” and“Foreignization” concepts are scrutinized to reveal the unequal cultural power interactions viatranslation. In this regard, by using Javier Franco Aixela’s methodology for translation of Culture-Specific Items, Sait Faik Abasıyanık’s stories and their translations are studied. Story of Sleeping InThe Forest’s translation was carried out by a Turkish translator Nilüfer Mizanoğlu Reddy, the otherstory Such a Story is translated by American translators Joseph and Viola Jakobson. By comparingtwo of the case studies, it is aimed to find out while translating from Turkish into English whethertranslation into mother tongue and translation into the second language creates a difference. Besides,whether national origin affects translation tendency towards “Domestication” or “Foreignization” inVenuti’s terms will be /investigated.
