“…Casanova (1999) applied Bourdieu's theory of the French cultural and literary field to a global rather than national scale. Heilbron (2008) drew on the linguistic theories of the sociologist de Swaan (2001) and focused on translation as a worldwide phenomenon while Sapiro originally worked with polysystem theory (Even-Zohar 1990) and later elaborated an interdisciplinary sociology of literature (Sapiro 2014a), in which the social practice of translation is given a central position. This currently lively branch of translation studies is commonly conceived of as hosting three main research areas (Chesterman 2009: 116) 2 : (1) the sociology of translators, (2) the sociology of translating, and (3) the sociology of translations.…”

“…From that time on, translated works have been studied about sociology. As stated by Gisele Sapiro (2014), "sociology approaches translation both as a social practice and as a cultural product involving agents (such as authors, translators, editors, and critics) and institutions (such as translation schools, literary and academic journals, publishing houses, and state policies)". Bogenç Demirel (2014, p. 404) emphasizes this point claiming that "just as social sciences means multi-suggestions, multi-agents/actuators, multi-criticisms, multi-sections, so the translated product is transferred into the target culture following many decision processes".…”

This paper seeks to investigate the habituses of translators of the book My Name is Red by Orhan Pamuk, Nobel laureate, in English, French and Italian languages concerning the potential relationship between the author and translator, dispositions and world views of translators as well as their educational and familial background. The main basis used as a ground in the paper is the famous term habitus by Bourdieu which lays the way open for research on Translation Studies concerning the Sociology of Translation. The translators of all versions were interviewed via email and asked four questions related to the translation process of the book to have an insight into whether they were guided by their habituses or not. In the light of in-depth analysis of the habituses of the translators, it is claimed that a translation process is a social deed and that in the process of translating translators are not independent of their habitus, which is an umbrella term used for entire past of the individual. It is suggested that relationships between the author and the translator emerge as a crucial factor that paves the way for success in the output at the end. Furthermore, it is observed that translators tend to rely on their intellectual and familial background as well as ethos when making choices related to which works and authors should be translated over time.

“…La elección de rebautizarse con los apellidos quechua de sus padres como acto de reapropiación 6 El incremento de los estudios sobre traductores fue impulsado por el giro cultural que experimentó la disciplina en los años noventa (Dam y Zethsen, 2009, p. 8), y que puso énfasis en la capacidad del traductor para convertirse en verdadero agente de mediación (Venuti, 1995). Esta tendencia se relaciona con el paradigma sociológico emergente, el llamado "giro sociológico", que se nutre de los planteamientos teóricos de Pierre Bourdieu (Bachleiter y Wolf, 2004;Dam y Zethsen, 2009;Díaz y Monzó, 2010;Heilbron, 2000;Kaindl et al, 2021;Sapiro, 2014;Sela-Shaffy, 2005;Tyulenev, 2014). De acuerdo con Cerrón-Palomino ( 2003), a raíz de los fenómenos de migración interna desde los años cincuenta, muchas formas del español andino ya no caracterizan solo el habla de los Andes, sino que también han llegado a formar parte de la variedad considerada estándar en Perú, es decir, la costeña.…”

autotraducción en la poesía quechua de Ch’aska Anka Ninawaman

Este artículo analiza las autotraducciones de la escritora bilingüe quechua-español “Ch’aska Anka Ninawaman” (seudónimo de Eugenia Carlos Ríos), poetisa peruana emergente de la literatura andina contemporánea, cuyos poemas representan un caso significativo para el estudio de la autotraducción en contextos poscoloniales hispanoamericanos. En el caso de las literaturas poscoloniales, resulta imprescindible indagar las dimensiones del poder que afectan la autotraducción, ya que esta puede reflejar una situación de diglosia que es consecuencia directa de los procesos de colonización y de las jerarquías que siguen recreándose aún después de la constitución de los Estados nación. Partiendo de la premisa que la (auto)traducción nunca es una práctica neutral, pueden destacarse dos dimensiones principales en la conceptualización del poder: la asimetría entre lenguas y culturas y sus correspondientes formas de resistencia, y el posicionamiento ideológico y político del autotraductor/a. En este sentido, en primer lugar, el presente artículo indaga la figura de la autotraductora, su discurso teórico sobre la autotraducción, sus motivaciones y sus posicionamientos identitarios, a través del análisis de los paratextos que acompañan las autotraducciones. En segundo lugar, a partir del estudio de las autotraducciones, se investigan las principales estrategias de traducción adoptadas por la autora como la presencia de la reescritura y del heterolingüismo. La autotraducción se concibe metafóricamente como un tejido andino que une y separa las diferentes tramas del lenguaje.
