The purpose of the following article is to comment on the proposed translation of fragments of The Sea and the Jungle by Henry Major Tomlinson, published in 1912, as well as the proposed translation strategies. Tomlinson's text was chosen because of its poetic nature, especially its use of figures of speech such as metaphor, alliteration, and hypotyposis. For the following commentary, we have chosen to present three fragments with representative examples of hypotyposis, the translations we have proposed, and a brief analysis of description as painting, unusual collocations, and sensory appeal, characteristics of the hypotyposis formation process employed by the author.
