  This paper aims to assess the quality of Daneshvar’s short story (‘Chashme-e-Nim Khofteh’) with its English translation (‘The Half-Closed Eye’) by Lewis (1997) in light of House’s revised model (1997; 2001). Firstly, the main literature on the House’s TQA is reviewed. House’s newly modern revision concerns the categories for register analysis, the distinction between overt and covert translation including the cultural filter, as well as a reconsideration of the whole notion of translation evaluation. Secondly, the quality of Daneshvar’s translated story is assessed concerning its English translation. In doing so, a text profile is given for the ST and the TT, and then, the functions of both the ST and the TT are stated. Third and finally, the overall quality of the English translation of the story is assessed. Regarding the target field, a lot of mismatches in three lexical, syntactic, and textual means were observed. Regarding tenor, the changes the translator has made in the syntactic and textual means have changed the informal/ casual style of the ST into a bit of a formal/ informal one. Regarding mode, no mismatches happened in the English translation. Also, the English translation is overt and needs not a cultural filter to be applied. Manuscript profile

  Since ground shows the power of imagination in a poet, it is one of the most important elements of simile.  In traditional books of rhetorics, ground has been divided into different categories such as sensitive and rational ground, real and imaginary ground, allegorical and non-allegorical ground.  However in these works the relationship between the imaginary ground and the two sides of simile is less emphasized.  In many of his similes, Nima has made use of imaginary ground.  In this article attempt has been made to analyze the ground with tenor and vehicle based on the Goteli table and from a new standpoint.  What is remarkable in Nima’s imaginary grounds is the employment of imageries which can not only personify tenor or vehicle but also can more artistically personify both these elements.   Manuscript profile
