La Traduction littéraire à l'ère des nouvelles théories Literary Translation in the Age of New Theories

Abstract

Literary translation is a completely different kind from other types of translation such as legal, economic, scientific, technical translation, etc.... in terms of quality and quantity. Quality compared to the professionalism that some translators acquire over the years by specializing in this kind of translation. Quantity, insofar as the number of works they translate is constantly increasing. Hundreds or more are sometimes translated by the same translator. Knowing that this is a very complex and restrictive operation, it is a question of knowing what are the requirements to achieve a good translation? Currently several approaches are adopted, they call on different methods, so our problematic is focused on the nature of the new theories and their impact on the practice of literary translation.
