Le Carnaval, festival, traduction, transculturation, Trinidad et TobagoRésumé
Le carnaval, comme moyen d’expression culturelle, est un festival qui prend des formes différentes à travers le monde. Dans cet article, l’auteure étudie le carnaval à Trinidad et Tobago sous l’optique de la traductologie. Peut-on qualifier un tel objet culturel de traduction ? S’inspirant de Gideon Toury —notamment de sa définition de la traduction comme tout procédé qui traverse des frontières systémiques et des études descriptives de la traduction—, du concept de transculturation proposé par Fernando Ortiz et de la théorie des polysystèmes d’Itamar Even Zohar, l’auteure compare l’évolution du carnaval à la traduction d’un texte et conclut qu’il ne s’agit pas d’un simple processus de traduction, mais de transculturation.Références
