La variación fraseológica intencional en traducción de la ciencia ficción como recurso estilístico

Abstract

Phraseology is considered nowadays a well-established and promising field of study. However, phraseological variation is a real phenomenon that, in certain contexts, is a deliberate decision. Therefore, we suggest with this article an approach to phraseological variation as a stylistic device within the translation of fantasy and science fiction literature. To do so, we analyze the cases of phraseological variation drawn from the novel La Plaie, written by the French author Nathalie Henneberg, as a resource that encourages the contextualization of the readers within a fictional universe thanks to the rhetorical, semantic and cultural features of the original phraseological units. Results showed a wide range of phraseological variation with lexical terms related to the story.
