Relocating Self-Translation from the Interlingual to Intralingual: Faulkner as a Self-Translauthor

Year 2018, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 41 - 63, 25.12.2018

Abstract

American author William Faulkner (1897-1962)
rewrites his book Sanctuary (1931) as
the editor turns down the first manuscript claiming that they both would be
jailed if it is published. In the source literary system, the discussion about
the rewriting is confined to two reasons: the issue of morality and the
artistic flaws in the original text. The point of departure in the present
article, which aims to explore this rewriting process within the context of
translation studies, is André Lefevere’s definition. Lefevere states that
“every translation is a rewriting” (1992, vii). Considering this
widely-accepted definition, this paper pursues an answer to the following
questions: Is it (im)possible to call a ‘rewriting’ a translation? And if the ‘rewriting’
is within the same language, can we call it an ‘intralingual translation?’ As
Faulkner rewrites his own text himself, could this be a ‘self-translation’ as
well?. ‘Self-translation’ is defined with reference to a bilingual writer who
writes his own text in another language. If bilingualism is imperative for ‘self-translation’,
then, is it (im)possible to call it a ‘self-translation’ when a writer rewrites
his own text in the same language? The question whether the analyzed case can
be regarded as an ‘intralingual self-translation’ will be examined according to
Gideon Toury’s translation norms. A comparative textual analysis of the
original text and the revised text will be carried out to display the findings
that will be discussed in the framework of Toury’s method for descriptive
translation studies.
