ABSTRACT

The main aim of this study is to examine how Avonlea, the setting of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables, located on the northern part of Canada’s Prince Edward Island, was depicted in the novel’s earliest Polish translation (1911). Particular emphasis will be placed on the image of the Avonlea community as (re)shaped and contoured by Rozalia Bernsteinowa, the Polish translator. The analysis, using the Hallidayan model of discourse as well as House’s notion of register, shows that in the earliest Polish translation, Avonlea and the protagonists living in the fictional town were portrayed as having achieved a high level of sophistication in many ways, which is reflected, inter alia, in the area of realogisms and within the sphere of register. Analysis of the translated image of Avonlea suggests that the translator’s approach was highly influenced by the historical context within which she was embedded and by her sentiment of nationalism and elitism as influenced by the political situation of her country.
