The stylistic potential of the idiolect of Ernest Hemingway in the novel “The Old Man and The Sea” is remarkably noticed in the use of repetitions in various functions. Repetitions are directly related to the "style-forming core" of Ernest Hemingway's individual handwriting. They stem from the nature of the creative individuality of the writer. In the nature of repetitions, in their quantitative use, in the nature and stylistic originality, the emotion, tension of the narration are manifested with particular brightness.

It represents a thorough study based on the novel “The Grapes of Wrath” by John Steinbeck from English and, respectively, its translation into Azerbaijani by Ulfet Kurchayli. It investigates the problematic areas or challenges emerging from the source-text discrepancies. Furthermore, this article also concentrates on the issue of cultural non-equivalence or the losses occurring in translating English literary texts into Azerbaijani.

The linguistic implication of the figurativeness of Charles Dickens in the novel “Dombey and Son” is remarkably noticed in the use of similes in different functions. Charles Dickens uses the similes with different simile markers such as pragmatically influence his readers and live in the reader’s imagination.

It makes the analysis of the formal qualities differentiating comparison, metaphor and simile important. The researcher collected 172 similes in terms of different structures and...

His books have been translated into a great majority of languages, his creative activity and personal style of writing has been investigated by literary critics and linguists at different times, his life and personality has been described extensively by his biographers, researchers and people who knew him personally. Nevertheless, both his biography and the value of his literary works have always been the object of debates. Scholars have always argued about the linguistic value of his style of writing; for some linguists Hemingway’s style seemed too simple to be analysed.

Therefore, translation of Hemingway’s stories and novels creates challenges for translators trying to achieve the greatest degree of ...
