The present study aimed at finding Catford‟s category shifts applied in the Persian translation of Charles Dickens‟ novel Great Expectations to determine the most frequently used category shift and to check whether there is a significant difference between category shifts in the translation. To this end, 200 simple declarative sentences from the first 20 chapters...

The Holy Quran, as an Arabic masterpiece, comprises great domains of syntactical, phonological, and semantic literary patterns. These patterns work as the shackle of translators. This study examined the application of the most common shift strategies in Catford‟s linguistic model for translation of topicalization in chapter 29 of the Holy Quran. The topicalized cases were compared to their coun...

Let E be a Frobenius category, let E denote its stable category. The shift functor on E induces a first shift functor on the category of acyclic complexes with entries in E by pointwise application. Shifting a complex by 3 positions yields a second shift functor on this category. Passing to the quotient modulo split acyclic complexes, Heller remarked that these two shift functors become isomorp...

Let E be a Frobenius category, let E denote its homotopy category. The shift functor on E induces a first shift functor on the category of acyclic complexes with entries in E by pointwise application. Shifting a complex by 3 positions yields a second shift functor on this category. Passing to the quotient modulo split acyclic complexes, Heller remarked that these two shift functors become isomo...

Let E be a Frobenius category. Let E denote its stable category. The shift functor on E induces, by pointwise application, an inner shift functor on the category of acyclic complexes with entries in E . Shifting a complex by 3 positions yields an outer shift functor on this category. Passing to the quotient modulo split acyclic complexes, Heller remarked that inner and outer shift become isomor...
