“…The first dilemma that the present study was aimed to resolve is whether pun was translatable or not. The pre-eminent proponents of pun translatability such as Toury (1997), Gottlieb (1997), Landheer (1989) and argue that languages are not as different from each other as some proponents of the untranslatability theory seem to think; all languages share some features with other languages and pun as a common and universal feature of all languages is translatable. As for, Considering the eight various strategies applied to rendering puns in Sa'di's Ghazals, which more or less have been organized to transfer the ST effect, it can be deduced that translatability is a relative notion rather than an absolute one.…”

The rich cultural connotations behind puns and the distinctive features of the puns' form, sound and meanings pose great challenges to the translator. Furthermore, given puns' non-negligible effects in Persian literary texts, it has been the aim of the present study to analyze and measure how puns in Sa'di's Ghazals have actually been treated in two available English versions. For the purpose of carrying out a meaningful analysis of translated puns, Delabastita's (1996) proposed model was considered as the main theoretical framework of the study. The data were compiled from a corpus comprising 92 ghazals along with their two target versions. Following an exact contrastive analysis of data based on Delabastita's classification and considering the results from the two selected statistical systems of traditional and SPSS in the study, it concluded that the two Iranian translators have applied eight different strategies included in Delabastita's (1996) model. These strategies arranged in descending order based on their total frequencies were Pun>RRD (Related Rhetorical Device

“…We do not think so » (1988: 12). Landheer (1989) semble le plus optimiste. Après avoir donné sa solution à quelques problèmes soi-disant insolubles, il conclut son article, « un essai de démystification du dogme a priori de l'intraduisibilité », en constatant que « dans la grande majorité des cas, disons entre 80 et 90%, il est possible de trouver une traduction entièrement satisfaisante » (1989: 41).…”

Malgré le succès récent des Humour Studies et de la traductologie, la traduction de l'humour ne suscite pas souvent l'intérêt des chercheurs. La plupart des contributions traitent de la soi-disante « (in)traduisibilité », qui se situerait aux niveaux « culturel » et « langagier ». Bien qu'en général les pensées soient empiriquement peu fondées et théoriquement déficientes, elles nous procurent une image plus concrète de ces difficultés de traduction culturelles et linguistiques. Pourtant, la « cartographie culturelle » a tout intérêt à prendre l'humour traduit encore plus au sérieux: son absence ou présence et ses modalités se laissent lire comme des signes incontestables de frontières communautaires. La bibliographie élargie qu'offre cet article pourrait servir de point de départ d'une discussion plus articulée qui incorpore les résultats récents aussi bien des Humour Studies que de la traductologie.

“…En esos años, investigadores como Santoyo (1989), Diot (1989) o Van Crugten (1989), por una parte, defendían la imposibilidad de traducir fenómenos humorísticos (FH, en la investigación de Ponce-Márquez). Por otra parte, sin embargo, las investigaciones de otros traductólogos como Hikma 19 (2) (2020), 135 -161 Newmark (1988), Landheer (1989) o Laroche (1989) abogaban por la posibilidad de traducir dicho humor, es decir, defendían que el humor se podía trasvasar desde un sistema lingüístico-cultural a otro.…”

Resumen: Este artículo es el fruto de varios años de investigación en torno al concepto de humor y (in)traducibilidad. Partiendo de numerosas investigaciones sobre el humor y su traducción (Attardo y Raskin, 1991; Attardo, 1994, 2002; Hickey, 1998, n.d. ; Fuentes, 2000 o Santana, 2006), en este artículo se pretende presentar un nuevo enfoque lingüístico-pragmático sobre los fenónemos humorísticos basado en el concepto de impulso perlocutivo, así como desarrollar un marco teórico-práctico que permita a los traductores fomentar su capacidad creativa y conseguir el nivel máximo de naturalidad en el texto traducido. Entendiendo el encargo de traducción como un elemento pro-activo en el marco de una tendencia funcionalista basada en el concepto de «recreación», en este artículo se presenta un enfoque teórico-práctico basado en el concepto de estímulo ICRETRA. Tras revisar el concepto básico de «competencia traductora», en estas líneas se aboga por la adición de una sub-competencia creativa al modelo tradicional de sub-competencias. Con esta revisión de conceptos tradicionales y una aplicación teórico-práctica concreta se pretende evitar el excesivo apego que los traductores en ciernes presentan al TO cuando se trata de la traducción de textos especializados. El humor, por tanto, demuestra ser el mejor vehículo para fomentar la naturalidad y creatividad de los traductores, independientemente del tipo de texto con el que se trabaje. Palabras clave: funcionalismo recreativo, sub-competencia creativa, encargo de traducción pro-activo, estímulo ICRETRA Abstract: This article is the result of a long-lasting research on the concept of humour and its (un)translatability. On the basis of a large number of previous research studies conducted into humour and translation (Raskin and Attardo, 1991; Attardo 1994, 2002; Hickey, 1998, n.d.; Fuentes, 2000 or Santana, 2006), this article aims to put forward a new linguistic and pragmatic approach to humourous phenomena based on the concept of perlocutionary impulse, as well as to present a theoretical and practical framework that allows translators to improve their creative competence and to produce the most natural translations possible. By considering translation assignments as pro-active elements in the framework of a functionalist approach to the concept of recreation, we present a theoretical and practical analysis constructed on the concept of ICRETRA stimulus. Thus, after reviewing the basic notion of translation competence, we support the addition of a creative sub-competence to the traditional scheme of translation sub-competences. With all this in mind, we aim to avoid the sometimes excessive subjugation of trainee translators to the source text when translating specialized texts. Humour is therefore regarded as the best vehicle to increase naturalness and creativity of translators, regardless of the text typology they deal with. Key-words: recreative functionalism, creative sub-competence, pro-active translation assignment, ICRETRA stimulus
