Bockhornet – en bulgarisk ber?ttelse mellan sagan och s?gnen

摘要

Nikolaj Chajtov (1919-2002) is one of the most popular contemporary writers in Bulgaria, but relatively unknown to the Swedish literary audience. Previously, only two short stories by him have been translated into Swedish. This article presents a Swedish translation of one of Chajtov’s most published short stories, “The Goat Horn”. It gives a short presentation of the author, an overview of the story’s publication history and discusses the difficulties and choices when translating it into Swedish.
