The language is (not) to blame’: Ukraine-born immigrant-interpreters in Israel redefine their native and working languages
This paper examines how interpreters perceive and navigate their native and working languages in the context of war. Drawing on translation and interpreting studies, we focus on long-term immigrant-interpreters in Israel amid the Russian war in Ukraine, their country of origin. Based on in-depth interviews conducted in late 2022 and followed up in mid-2024 with both professional and non-professional immigrant-interpreters, we show how they redefi…
Objects of remembrance and renewal: Translated materiality in Queen of Dreams
The relation between translation and experiences of migrants as depicted in fiction has been widely discussed, through the lens of both interlingual translation and cultural translation. The latter refers to the ongoing negotiation and representation of one’s values, symbols, and practices vis-à-vis the local majority group. The link between cultural translation and interlingual translation deserves careful exploration. This article examines the …
Illustrated translations longing for the Middle Ages, exemplified by modern french versions of Aucassin et Nicolette
The relations between the verbal component, the visual component, and the translational aspect of a given text have been discussed and described by translation scholars and semioticians in a diversity of manners. A significant graphic element may be introduced during the translation production, usually in dialogue with the verbal one, thus creating a new intersemiotic text. Medieval manuscripts are known for offering their readers illustrations, …
Intelligibility and the reception of translations
In the framework of descriptive translation studies, the notions of ‘translation’ and ‘language’ are deeply influenced by socially accepted ideas, as suggested by Toury. Based on Sakai's schema of co-figuration, conceptions of intelligibility affect views on linguistic continuity and consequently may determine the reception of translation. This paper argues that for intralingual translation, intelligibility may have an impact not only on the rece…
False equality in election advertisements: The use of multilingualism and subtitles
Studies have covered a variety of aspects related to the translation of political texts and propaganda. However, little has been written about the role that heterolingualism and translation can play in the original versions of these very texts. This article investigates a case in which multilingualism in propaganda was employed to reflect and comment on multilingualism and diversity in the political reality. It analyzes two highly controversial t…
Le statut de la traduction dans les éditions bilingues: De l’interprétation au commentaire
The publication of revised editions of recognized works is usually accompanied by a commentary intended to guide the readers while the translation of a work acts as a substitute for its source, producing a different reading of it. This study proposes to examine a third practice yet related to the two mentioned above, that of bilingual editions presenting both the translation and its original text side by side.The functioning of bilingual editions…
