The author approaches the subject of translating for theatre both as a theatre practitioner and professional translator working in three languages. Translation is generally regarded as process of linguistic transfer from one language to another language in written form. Theatrical texts are an unique literary form because their written form is a base, anchor and springboard for the text in performance. Until recently, translation studies have tended to oscillate between lofty pronouncements which remain too general to be easily applicable to the practical task of translating and close textual analysis which may appear fastidious and overly specific. The art of translation has often wanted to call itself a science, thereby ostensibly increasing its credibility. However nowhere more in the context of theatre can it be justifiably called an art, with all that entails in terms of subjectivity, cultural bias and transitory or timeless validity. There is no such thing as a perfect translation. Translation is a process of endless learning. Several translation theorists have offered broad categorisations or lengthy rationalised lists to help define the parameters of this most tangible practice. No such lists exist which addressed the specific criteria of translation for theatre. Through personal experience and critical reflection, this thesis will offer the beginning of a blueprint which may be useful for translators working in this field / Master of Arts (Hons)(Performance)

Cinq auteurs nous permettent d’avoir une vision plurilatérale du conflit israélo-palestinien, aussi notre travail porte-t-il sur l’étude comparative de textes de Mahmoud Darwich, d’Edward Saïd, David Grossman, Jean Genet, et Philip Roth. Pour chacun, nous avons choisi un texte qui traduit leur rapport avec ce conflit, et au-delà leur lien avec un territoire et un peuple. C’est de ce lien dont il est question : soit l’écriture reflète, chez certains auteurs, les liens familiaux, ancestraux, originaires qui lient l’écrivain à sa communauté. Soit l’écriture étend ses marges vers d’autres nouages pour trouver des « branchements » en dehors du même. Entre les deux attitudes se jouent deux conceptions du politique, deux acceptations différentes du « démos » de la démocratie ; l’acceptation ou non de l’étrangeté. Ce sont alors également deux approches différentes de la littérature. Celle-ci n’a pas forcément à perpétuer nos « représentations » mais à les questionner pour que s’ouvre un autre rapport à l’autre et à nous-même. Les représentations dominantes chez les uns et les autres, chez les Israéliens comme chez les Palestiniens, sont marqués par un fantasme de plénitude qui exclut toute approche de l'autre. Le texte littéraire, inspiré de ces jeux de miroir avec le politique, devrait défaire ce fantasme afin que l'accès à l'autre et à sa reconnaissance soit libre. / Five authors provide give us a vision of plurilateral Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Our work also focuses on the comparative study of texts of Mahmoud Darwish, Edward Saïd, David Grossman, Jean Genet, and Philip Roth. For each of them, we chose a text that reflects their relationship to this conflict, and beyond their relationship with a territory and a people. This link is in question: is the writing reflects some authors, family ties, ancestral origin that binds the writer to his community. Either writing extends its margins to other knotting to find "connections" outside the same. Between the two attitudes are two conceptions of politics, two different meanings of "demos" of democracy and acceptance or not of strangeness. It then also two different approaches to literature, it did not necessarily perpetuate our "representations" but question them in order to open another relative to each other and ourselves that is no longer conditioned by them. Against the cult of the full and full of fantasy players raging on both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the literary text and the political will revise each other, so we can perhaps due recognition of otherness.
