Translating Literary Dialect : A Linguistic Analysis of Les Belles-Soeurs

Diplôme Master Translating Literary Dialect : A Linguistic Analysis of Les Belles-Soeurs eng 2023 author Anderson Symmone 923070 director Tarpley James 750087 Authors have used literary dialect for centuries to represent different speech communities in literature, and to contribute to the character or setting development of a literary work. This tool provides a complex challenge to translators, who must determine if and how to reproduce literary dialect in translation. This analysis looks at the different options available to translators, then presents a linguistic analysis to quantitively compare literary dialect present in a source and target text. Using the Quebec play Les Belles-Soeurs for a case study, literary dialect is examined in both texts and methods for translation are identitified. Reasons for the translators’ choices to use different methods are proposed and discussed.
