The present paper aims at describing stylistic features at the level of syntax, which are present in Trans-Atlantyk’s Swedish translation done by Anders Bodegård and praised as an extraordinary piece of work. We focus solely on distinguishing different types of syntactic constructions used by the translator revealing his way of rendering the syntactic stylization of the unique source text. Additionally, the study has a didactic focus. It shows an enormous stylistic potential of the Swedish language captured in one text.}, doi = {}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/filologiskt-smorgasbord/article/syntax-och-stilisering-i-den-svenska-oversattningen-av-witold-gombrowicz-trans-atlantyk} }
