Abstract
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is a comedy science fiction novel written by the British novelist Douglas Adams. Even though the story started merely as a radio series, it has grown to be one of the most popular works of science fiction. The genre it belongs to has been defined by Hugo Gernsback, who defined the rules for writing science fiction novels. However, these rules could also be guidelines for the translators to follow in order to produce worthy translations. This paper deals with issues characteristic for the translation of the science fiction genre. Some of those issues are: the translation of newly made-up words and languages, finding the balance between education and entertainment, tone used by the author in order to emphasise the social critique, and re-creating the registers used by alien characters.
Abstract (croatian)
Vodič kroz galaksiju za autostopere roman je humoristične znanstvene fantastike britanskog autora Douglasa Adamsa. Iako je priča ovog romana započela tek kao radijska emisija, danas je ovo jedno od najpopularnijih djela znanstvene fantastike. Žanr kojem pripada odredio je Hugo Gernsback, koji je definirao pravila pisanja znanstveno fantastičnog romana. Međutim, ova pravila također mogu pomoći prevoditeljima kako bi stvorili vjerodostojne prijevode. Ovaj rad bavi se problemima karakterističnim za prevođenje žanra znanstvene fantastike. Neki od tih problema su: predvođenje novih riječi i jezika, pronalaženje ravnoteže između edukacije i zabave, ton kojeg koristi autor kako bi naglasio društvenu kritiku, te imitiranje registara koje koriste likovi izvanzemaljaca.
