Abstract
Over the course of time, translations adapt to new historical sceneries, translation theories, and literary trends. This short study aims to analyze how the course of time influences one of the classical problems in Translation Studies: the translation of linguistic variation. Using two well-known English novels from the XIX century, this paper not only focuses on the translation techniques put into practice diachronically but on the factors which may have conditioned the translation decisions.
