Abstract

This study aims to analyze the translation strategies used to translate personifications and to identify the types of personification found in Ernest Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea. This study employs a qualitative method using the Qualitative Content Analysis (QCA) approach. The data sources consist of the English source text and its Indonesian translation. The data were collected through observation by identifying and classifying personifications in both texts. The types of personification were identified using the classification proposed by Braak (2007), while the translation strategies were analyzed based on the framework proposed by Vinay and Darbelnet (1995). The findings reveal a total of 17 personification data. Two types of personification were identified, consisting of Animating an Object or an Abstract Thing (15 data) and Concrete or Vivid Personification (2 data). The dominance of Animating an Object or an Abstract Thing indicates that Hemingway more frequently attributes human qualities to natural elements, animals, body parts, and inanimate objects while preserving their original identities rather than portraying them as fully human figures. Four translation strategies were also identified, consisting of Literal Translation (14 data), Adaptation (1 data), Transposition (1 data), and Modulation (1 data). The findings show that Literal Translation is the most dominant strategy because the translator generally preserves the original meaning, structure, and figurative expressions of the source text, allowing the literary effect of the personifications to be maintained in the Indonesian translation. Overall, the findings demonstrate that the translator successfully preserves both the figurative meaning and the literary quality of the original novella while producing a translation that is natural and understandable for Indonesian readers. Keywords : personification, translation strategies, types of personification, literary translation, The Old Man and the Sea. / Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis strategi penerjemahan yang digunakan dalam menerjemahkan personifikasi serta mengidentifikasi tipetipe personifikasi yang terdapat dalam novel The Old Man and the Sea karya Ernest Hemingway. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan Qualitative Content Analysis (QCA). Sumber data penelitian berupa teks sumber berbahasa Inggris dan terjemahannya dalam bahasa Indonesia. Data dikumpulkan melalui teknik observasi dengan mengidentifikasi dan mengklasifikasikan personifikasi pada kedua teks. Tipetipe personifikasi diidentifikasi menggunakan klasifikasi yang dikemukakan oleh Braak (2007), sedangkan strategi penerjemahan dianalisis berdasarkan kerangka teori Vinay dan Darbelnet (1995). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 17 data personifikasi. Dua tipe personifikasi berhasil diidentifikasi, yaitu Animating an Object or an Abstract Thing (15 data) dan Concrete or Vivid Personification (2 data). Dominannya tipe Animating an Object or an Abstract Thing menunjukkan bahwa Hemingway lebih sering memberikan sifat-sifat manusia kepada unsur-unsur alam, hewan, bagian tubuh, dan benda mati tanpa menghilangkan identitas aslinya sebagai objek nonmanusia. Selain itu, ditemukan empat strategi penerjemahan, yaitu Literal Translation (14 data), Adaptation (1 data), Transposition (1 data), dan Modulation (1 data). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Literal Translation merupakan strategi yang paling dominan karena penerjemah umumnya mempertahankan makna, struktur, dan ungkapan figuratif dari teks sumber sehingga efek sastra dari personifikasi tetap terjaga dalam terjemahan bahasa Indonesia. Secara keseluruhan, hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penerjemah berhasil mempertahankan makna figuratif sekaligus kualitas sastra novel asli, sehingga hasil terjemahan tetap alami dan mudah dipahami oleh pembaca bahasa Indonesia. Kata Kunci : personifikasi, strategi penerjemahan, jenis personifikasi, penerjemahan sastra, The Old Man and the Sea.
