In the expansive realm of international fiction, where stories traverse linguistic and cultural frontiers, the translation of emotions emerges as a profound challenge. This article delves into the intricate task of translating emotions in world literature, exploring the hurdles faced by translators and the innovative solutions employed to capture the emotional essence of diverse narratives. Emotions, intrinsic to storytelling, present a challenge due to their subjective nature, intricately linked to cultural norms and societal contexts. Translators must navigate this complexity as cultural mediators, transcending linguistic barriers to convey not only the literal meaning but also the nuanced emotional subtleties. The article sheds light on creative strategies, such as delving into cultural reservoirs, employing idioms, and using metaphors, to enable the essence of feelings to transcend linguistic confines. Additionally, it emphasizes the delicate balance required to convey emotions authentically, eliciting parallel emotional responses in the target audience. In the realm of international fiction, where characters grapple with universal human experiences, successful translation relies on a symbiotic relationship between linguistic precision and emotional resonance. This exploration contributes to the understanding of the vital role emotions play in world literature and the nuanced artistry required to convey them across diverse cultures.
