In particular, we will consider the translation from Italian into Russian of the short novel 7 uomini 7. Peripezie di una vedova by the contemporary Sicilan writer Silvana Grasso. The main issue lies in identifying, along the translation path, a continuous lexical and stylistic compromise for the purpose of not losing the expressive effect desired by the author through the use of code-mixing. Starting from the theoretical framework provided by Katharina Reiss e Hans Vermeer focused on the Skopostheorie, there will be an analysis of the translation of the mentioned book and, consequently, translation proposals in Russian, yet analyzing the results on their validity. Therefore, it will be set as a further objective to investigate the solutions related to the linguistic-cultural contrast generated by code-switching and the way to apply specific translation methods focusing on the target reader. The scarcity of documentation and studies pertaining to translating code-mixing highlight the importance of this research which arises from the need to fill the gap inherent in the diatopic aspect of the Italian language in the translation field.</p>}, number={1 (3)}, journal={Translation Studies: Theory and Practice}, author={Shcherbakova, Mariia}, year={2022}, month={Jun.}, pages={72–82} }
