6 Abstract The present study deals with a descriptive approach to Translation Studies. In this study, the notions of translation and power and politics of translation as the central issues in Translation Studies are discussed. This study is an attempt towards submitting a critical investigation in translation studies field. The procedures or strategies are proposed by Van Dijk (١٩٩٨) and go back to Fairclough (١٩٩٥). By power, Fairclough means a concept both in terms of asymmetries between participants in discourse events and in terms of unequal capacity to control how texts are produced, distributed and consumed (and hence the shapes of texts) in particular sociocultural context. This study was developed by Critical Discourse Analysis theory also. Besides focusing on these two translation criticism method, the researcher has applied Farahzad`s model of translation criticism (١٩٩٨) on the analysis of the translated texts. In this way, texts were analyzed at macro level as well as micro level. Uncle Tom`s Cabin, Daddy-long-leg and King Lear were the bestselling books in three decades of ١٣٥٧-١٣٦٧, ١٣٦٧-١٣٧٧ and ١٣٧٧-١٣٨٧. This comparative corpus-based study tries to answer these questions which novel translations have been best selling after the Islamic revolution of Iran and have they have been translated at macro and micro level and what problems have affected this. Confirming the assumptions or hypotheses, the findings of the study indicated that in the last three decades, translated books which have had more adaptation to the social conditions of their time, have been bestselling.

12 چكيده اين تحقيق رويكردي است توصيفي نسبت به مطالعات ترجمه. در اين تحقيق مفاهيمي چون "ترجمه و قدرت"و "سياست ترجمه" به عنوان مفاهيم اصلي در مطالعات ترجمه مورد بحث و بررسي قرار مي گيرند. اين كوششي است در جهت اراي ه تحقيقي انتقادي در زمينه مطالعات ترجمه. روش و استراتژي هاي تحقيق برگرفته از مدل ون دايك (1998) و فركلاو (1995) است. فركلاو درباره "قدرت" از دو نظر بحث مي كند. از لحاظ عدم تقارن و هماهنگي بين شركت كنندگان در گفتگو و از لحاظ ظرفيت هاي نابرابر جهت توليد تعميم و مصرف متون در شرايط فرهنگي-اجتماعي خاص. اين تحقيق تي وري CDA را نيز پيش گرفت. علاوه بر دو مدل ياد شده محقق در اين تحقيق همچنين از مدل دكتر فرحزاد (1998) براي تجزيه و تحليل داده هاي خود بهره برده است. به اين ترتيب متن در دو سطح خرد و كلان مورد بررسي قرار گرفته است. "كلبه عمو تم" "بابالنگ دراز" و "شاه لير" پرفروش ترين كتاب هاي دهه هاي و بوده اند. اين تحقيق مقايسه اي پيكره اي مي كوشد كه به اين سوال پاسخ دهد كه چرا اين كتاب ها پرفروش ترين كتاب هاي پس از انقلاب بوده اند و اينكه در دو سطح خرد و كلان چگونه ترجمه شده اند و ٩١

13 اين موضوع نتيجه چه چيز است و به چه مساي لي منجر مي شود. داده ها فرضيه هاي تحقيق را اثبات كرد و نشان داد كتاب هايي پرفروش ترين كتاب هاي دهه خود بوده اند كه بيشترين تطابق را با شرايط اجتماعي فرهنگي زمان خود داشته اند. زهرا تاجيك ٩٢
