Traduire le couple texte-image du point de vue de la paratraduction : cas de la bande dessinée

Abstract

in images) (1990). This 9 th art has a particular mode of reading. The image with its iconic, plastic and sociolinguistic dimensions undertake an intersemiotic relationship with the text to which it is combined and which is as important as the text. The outcome of this tandem contains the essence of the meaning to be understood and then to translate. From this perspective, how should the translator react, from a traductological point of view, in front of such an abundance of iconotextual entities? Our paper aims at answering this question among others, by focusing on the notion of paratranslation, “this key concept for translating the text-image couple” (Frías, 2010), stemming from the notion of the paratext and the semiology of the image, and which has been given a well-deserved place in translation.
