Denise Brahimi 'Nadine Gordimer la femme, la politique et le roman' : traduction et activités traduisantes

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The nature of the translation process, that is, what occurs in the translator's mind when attempting to translate thoughts and ideas from one language to another, remains an enigma. The focus of this dissertation falls within the relatively unexplored field of "process-orientated descriptive translation studies (DTS)" as defined by Holmes (1972). This dissertation aims to contribute to a greater understanding of translation by analysing a number of cultural, linguistic and other difficulties encountered by the translator while translating a French text into English.
