On the peripheries of theory – third language in translation The paper substantiates the importance of the so-called third language (L3) as a translation issue – despite claims that it is straightforward (e.g. by Fyodorov) or, conversely, that it defies TS insight (Bellos). The research so far is summarized and in the empirical part a working typology of techniques applied in translating L3 material is offered, illustrated by extracts from Boris Akunin’s Russian historical detective novels and their Polish renditions. The author pays attention to such questions as the form of notation of L3 elements in the original (in the Cyrillic or Latin alphabet), paratextual strategies and the functions which the foreign interpolations perform in their contexts and macrotexts.
