Summary/Abstract: The paper presents some results of the experiment the authors carried out starting from the description of literary translation competence in the PETRA-E European framework. It focuses on the assessment of the sub-competences that are required in the translation process itself, as they are demonstrated by some post-graduate translation studies students whose task was, among others in the larger experimental project, to render O. Henry’s The Gift of the Magi into Romanian.
