The article addresses the topic of literary translation and its cultural significance, with a focus on the book "The Novel of Proverbs" by Bahraini novelist Rasool Darwish. It explains that translation is not merely about transferring words and meanings, but a creative process that plays a role in reproducing the text within another culture. Special emphasis is placed on translating proverbs and folk sayings that reflect the collective memory and identity of a society. The article underscores the necessity of seeking cultural equivalents in the target language rather than relying on literal translation. It also highlights that translation—from the text to speech—requires preserving musicality, rhetorical images, and emotional connotations, especially in poetry and popular proverbs. Additionally, the importance of cultural interaction and the influence of environment and references on even the smallest details of translation are emphasized. The article affirms that translation is an art before it is a science, aiming to evoke enjoyment and reveal the pleasure of reading. The book seeks to promote dialogue between Arab and foreign cultures, asserting that the translator is a true bridge between civilizations, not merely a content carrier.
