Abstract	The aim of this thesis is to portray the complexity of translating references and allusions from first 8 issues of the graphic novel The Sandman written by Neil Gaiman. References and allusions that will be analysed are taken from translation by Tatjana Jambrišak and published by Fibra. This thesis primarily focuses on particular complexities of translating The Sandman and its various cultural references and allusions. The first part summarizes the maturation of comic books into graphic novels and the distinguishing factors between the two. The next part explores the social prejudice against comics and The Sandman’s place in the on-going debate. The third part focuses on the multimodality of comics as a medium and the relevance of both visual and verbal messages in the context of references and allusions, which is subsequently illustrated with examples from the novel. Likewise, next part explores translation challenges in the context of the novel and illustrates the complex approach to translating references and allusions. The fifth chapter serves as the theoretical background as it explores incongruities between the two terms and the sixth chapter aims to establish taxonomies within the field of translation studies for the purposes of analysing them. In the research part of the thesis, intertextual references as mostly defined by Irene Ranzato (2013: 67-97) are analysed using the strategies for translation of allusions as proposed by Minna Ruokonen (2016: 454) and Ritva Leppihalme (1997: 100).
Abstract (croatian)	Cilj ovog rada je prikazati složenost prevođenja referenci i aluzija iz prvih 8 izdanja grafičkog romana Sandman Neila Gaimana. Reference i aluzije koje će se analizirati preuzete su iz prijevoda Tatjane Jambrišak kojeg je objavila Fibra. Ovaj rad prvenstveno istražuje vrlo specifičnu složenost prevođenja Sandman-a i raznih kulturnih referenci i aluzija. Prvi dio ukratko opisuje sazrijevanje stripa u grafički roman te navodi čimbenike po kojima se razlikuju. Sljedeći dio istražuje društvene predrasude prema stripovima i Sandman-ovo mjesto u raspravi koja se još odvija. Treći dio se prvenstveno bavi multimodalnošću stripa kao medija i relevantnošću vizualnih i verbalnih poruka u kontekstu referenci i aluzija, što je naknadno predočeno primjerima iz stripa. Sljedeći dio isto tako istražuje prevoditeljske izazove u kontekstu romana i prikazuje složen pristup prevođenju referenci i aluzija. Peto poglavlje služi kao teorijska pozadina te istražuje nepodudarnosti između dva pojma, dok je cilj šestog poglavlja uspostaviti taksonomije u okviru znanosti prevođenja radi lakše analize materijala. U istraživačkom dijelu rada analiziraju se intertekstualne reference, kako ih je većinom definirala Irene Ranzato (2013: 67-97), pomoću strategija za prevođenje aluzija koje predlažu Minna Ruokonen (2016: 454) i Ritva Leppihalme (1997: 100).
