« Il va sans dire que c’est l’expérience du traduire qui constitue le centre de gravité de mon rapport général à la traduction. Je ne suis traductologue que parce que je suis, primordialement, traducteur » (Berman 2001, p. 16). La théorie de la traduction d’Antoine Berman serait donc enracinée dans sa pratique. Bien que son nom soit devenu incontournable en traductologie et que ses idées aient suscité de nombreux débats, peu de chercheurs ont étudié le lien entre la théorie et la pratique de ce traductologue. Le présent mémoire tente de combler cette lacune. Au moyen d’une analyse de la traduction de El juguete rabioso de Roberto Arlt faite par les époux Berman, il explore comment la pratique et la théorie de la traduction d’Antoine Berman se sont nourries l’une de l’autre. Le premier chapitre retrace le parcours d’Antoine Berman : son travail de traducteur, ses influences, sa théorie de la traduction, l’impact de celle-ci et les critiques qui lui ont été adressées. Dans le chapitre deux, nous découvrons Roberto Arlt et son œuvre afin de bien cerner les enjeux de sa traduction. Le chapitre trois analyse, selon la méthode bermanienne, la traduction française de ce roman publiée pour la première fois en 1984. Deux éléments du texte sont mis en relief : la diversité de registres discursifs, dont les sociolectes argentins, et la richesse lexicale qui en découle. En conclusion, l’étude montre que Le jouet enragé est marqué par une certaine inhibition et une rigidité sans doute inhérentes à toute traduction-introduction. Trop attachée aux normes, cette première version restitue timidement la diversité narrative de l’original. Ainsi, on peut supposer que les préceptes de Berman, et plus exactement sa liste de « tendances déformantes » (Berman 1999) reflètent, en partie, et avant tout, les limites et les difficultés qu’il a pu rencontrer dans l’exercice de sa pratique. / “Needless to say my experience of translating constitutes the core of my general relationship with translation. I am a translation studies’ theorist because primarily I am a translator” (Berman…p. 16, my translation). Antoine Berman’s translation theory is rooted in his practice. Even though his name is irreversibly linked to the field of translation studies and his ideas have caused numerous debates, few researchers have studied the relation between his theory and practice. This thesis attempts to fill that gap through an analysis of the French translation of Roberto Arlt’s El juguete rabioso by Isabelle and Antoine Berman. It explores how Antoine Berman’s translation practice and theory feed from each other. The first chapter recounts the development of Antoine Berman: his work as a translator, his influences, his theory of translation and its impact, as well as the criticism addressed towards it. In chapter 2, we discover Roberto Arlt and his work in order to fully understand the problematic points of its translation. Following Antoine Berman’s method, chapter 3 analyses the only French translation of El juguete rabioso published in 1984. It concentrates on two particular elements of the text: the diverse discursive registers, including the use of Argentine sociolects, and their lexical richness. In conclusion, the study shows that Le jouet enragé carries the flaws (défectivité) inherent in any introductory translation. Too attached to linguistic conventions, this first version timidly recreates the arrative diversity of the original. Thus, it could be suggested that Antoine Berman’s theories, and more specifically his list of “deforming tendencies”, reflect in part, and, above all, the limits and difficulties that he encountered in the exercise of his practice.

Historic preservation and urban renewal are often thought to be polar opposites. Where one seeks to preserve, the other generally seeks to destroy in order to rebuild. While the programs appear on the surface to be in opposition, this Thesis seeks to demonstrate that there is a fundamental connection between the underlying legal principles of historic zoning and urban renewal. To that end, the jurisprudence involving historic zoning and aesthetic regulations before and after the seminal urban renewal case of Berman v. Parker has been collected and analyzed. This analysis revealed that courts were hesitant to support aesthetic, and by extension would have been unlikely to support historic zoning, prior to the Supreme Court’s validation of urban renewal programs in Berman. For example, in 1949 the Supreme Court of Massachusetts stated that specifically stated that a zoning regulation cannot be enacted solely to preserve the beauty of a community. In Berman, however, the United States Supreme Court justified urban renewal on the basis that governments should be able to condemn and regulate property for the creation of a more attractive community. An analysis of the jurisprudence following Berman indicated that courts were more likely to uphold aesthetic or historic zoning ordinances. For example, in a 1955 opinion, the Supreme Court of Massachusetts cited Berman and stated that, because construction of aesthetically or historically incompatible structures could destroy the historic character of a town, historic zoning ordinances fell within the scope of the police power. In short, the cases identified by this Thesis ultimately indicated that Berman had an impact on the acceptance of aesthetic and historic zoning. Therefore, they suggest that the programs of historic zoning and urban renewal, while seemingly in opposition, share fundamental legal roots.

Teorias fundadas na busca pelo "sentido", isso é, em uma metafísica da linguagem. Para ilustrar tais considerações, apoiados nos fundamentos teóricos e metodológicos do tradutor Antoine Berman (1942-1991), em particular nos desenvolvidos em seu La Traduction et la Lettre ou l'alberge du lointain (2007), em primeiro lugar, faremos a "analítica" de alguns trechos da primeira tradução brasileira da obra Nouveaux essais sur l'entendement humain, par l'auteur du système de l'harmonie préetablie ( (1765) - do primeiro capítulo do livro III, o Des Mots, para sermos mais específicos - a fim de explicitar o "sistema de deformação" da "letra" que aí opera; em seguida, proporemos uma segunda tradução dos três capítulos iniciais, ou melhor, uma "retradução". Trata-se de capítulos em que Leibniz tece importantes considerações sobre os aspectos "materiais" da natureza da linguagem. ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / In light of the thought of Jacques Derrida (1930-2004) trace, of the deconstruction, and of our experience with the reading and the translating texts of the philosophy of the language, especially those of the German Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716), we intend to presente some philosophical (etymological and philological) theses of Leibniz on the subject of the language’s nature that contributed to the formation of the Historical-comparative Linguistics and, from the Derrida’s point of view, to the logocentric theories of translation. Theories founded on the search for “the signification”, i.e., on a metaphysics of the language. To illustrate such considerations, supported by the theoretical and methodological foundations of the translator Antoine Berman (1942-1991), particularly in those developed in his La Traduction et la Lettre ou l’Alberge du lointain (2007), first, in order to explain the “letter’s system of deformation” that operates there, we will make the “analytical” of some passages of the first Brazilian translation of the work Nouveaux essais sur l’entendement humain, par l’auteur du système de l’harmonie préétablie (1765) – the first chapter of the book III, Des Mots, to be more specific –; after that, we will propose a second translation of the three initials chapters, or better, a “retranslation”. These are chapters in which Leibniz weaves important considerations about the “material” aspects of the nature of language.

L’auteure suédoise Åsa Larsson a eu un grand succès en France avec ses polars avec le personnage principal Rebecka Martinsson, contribuant à la compréhension interculturelle entre la France et la Suède pendant les dernières 15 années. La première oeuvre dans la série de Rebecka Martinsson, Solstorm, a été traduite en français pour la première fois en 2006 sous le titre Horreur Boréale, et retraduite en 2020 sous le titre Les nouveaux prophètes. Il y a, grosso modo, deux stratégies de traduction : la traduction imitative (adaptée à la langue traduite) et la traduction fonctionnelle (adaptée à la langue cible). L’hypothèse d’Antoine Berman postule entre autre que les retraductions vont diachroniquement vers un style plus imitatif. Le but de ce mémoire est d’analyser la stratégie de traduction des deux traductions pour vérifier ou rejeter l’hypothèse de Berman. La méthode utilisée était la sélection de 28 extraits du livre Solstorm avec des phénomènes typiquement « suédois » (comme par exemple les jurons, le dialecte et la gastronomie) et l’analyse de leurs traductions respectives. Notre analyse montre qu’une grande majorité des extraits sélectionnés sont traduits d’une façon fonctionnelle, et qu’il n’y a aucune tendance que la deuxième traduction soit traduite d’un style plus imitatif que la première traduction. Donc, l’hypothèse de Berman n’a pas pu être confirmée par cette analyse qui n’a, toutefois, étudié que des extraits de l’oeuvre originale et ses traductions. / Having a major success in France, the Swedish novelist Åsa Larsson has with her crime novels starring Rebecka Martinsson contributed to the intercultural comprehension between Sweden and France over the last 15 years. The first book in the Rebecka Martinsson saga, Solstorm, was translated into French in 2006 under the title Horreur Boréale and retranslated in 2020 under the title Les nouveaux prophètes. There are roughly two possible strategies of translation: foreignization (adaption to the translated language) and domestication (adaption to the target language). The hypothesis of Antione Berman states amongst others that translations move diachronically towards the strategy of foreignization. The aim of this thesis is to analyse the two translations of Solstorm, examining whether the hypothesis of Berman could be confirmed or rejected. The method used was choosing 28 extracts containing typical “Swedish” phenomena (for instance the cursing, the dialect and the Swedish gastronomy) from the original version and analysing their translation, respectively. Our analysis shows that a large majority of extracts are translated in a domesticating style, and no tendency towards an increased use of the foreignizing strategy over time could be observed. The hypothesis of Berman could then not be confirmed through this analysis, but further studies of the original version are needed to confirm the results.

I uppsatsen undersöks skildringen av vissa inre tillstånd i Eyvind Johnsons Nu var det 1914: olika typer av ensamhet (i förhållande till andra människor, existentiell och platsrelaterad), rörelse i tanken och rörelse mellan sinnesstämningar. Vidare analyseras kopplingar mellan tillstånden och moderniteten, liksom vilka attityder till den senare som kommer till uttryck i romanen. Undersökningen sker genom en tematisk metod och närläsning med verket i förgrunden, men med modernitetens framträdande konturer som fond. De olika varianterna av ensamhet och rörelse är framträdande teman och skildras i någon mån genom dialog, men främst genom huvudpersonens medvetandeström. Tillstånden står nästan undantagslöst i samband med moderniteten i form av dess gryende samhällsansvar för individens materiella behov, ökad rörlighet till följd av industrialisering och utbyggnad av moderna kommunikationer, effektivisering av arbetsprocesser, större fokus på den enskilde individen och vetenskapens och rationalitetens växande inflytande. Endast i fråga om ett fall av platsrelaterad ensamhet saknas kausal förbindelse – då finns i stället en tydlig koppling till det förmoderna[1]. Uttrycken av ensamhet och inre rörelse, liksom deras förhållande till det moderna, förstärks genom strukturer i texten och symbolik. Den hållning till moderniteten som uttrycks är komplex och nyanserad.

Kungsgatan av Ivar Lo-Johansson visar urbaniseringen och moderniteten i mellankrigstidens Sverige. Romanen har framför allt studerats genom protagonisten Adrians bildningsresa, men denna uppsats framhåller statardottern Martas fall som kvintessentiell för Lo-Johanssons gestaltning av moderniteten. Med avstamp i det frihetstema Ola Holmgren identifierat i Lo-Johanssons författarskap tillämpar jag existentialistiska begrepp från Jean-Paul Sartre i syfte att undersöka vad Martas fall orsakas av och hur hennes fall relaterar till moderniteten såsom den beskrivits av Marshall Berman och Georg Simmel. Slutsatsen blir att Martas livsöde bör förklaras i termer av att hon agerar i ond tro och att hon därigenom antar ett omodernt levnadsmönster som inte fungerar i moderniteten. Orsaken till hennes agerande härleds till en obalans mellan transcendens och fakticitet, en orsak som rättfärdigas med hjälp av Lo-Johanssons andra skildringar av statarnas livsvillkor. Slutsatsen blir att moderniteten gestaltas som krävande invånarnas anpassning och att alla inte är kapabla till sådan, vilket förtydligas om man utvecklar Holmgrens forskning genom existentialistiska begrepp och nyttjar dem till att analysera Martas fall.

The novel is one means by which writers can provide examples of the possibilities for women in patriarchal societies to seek greater independence. Sabina Berman (1955- ) and Silvia Molina (1946- ) are modern day Mexican novelists whose writings support the betterment of the female condition in this Latin American society. This study focuses on these two authors and describes and analyzes several of their female protagonists who can be characterized as being in search of their self-identity and self-realization. The novels of interest are La Bobe (2006) and La Mujer que Buceó Dentro del Corazón del Mundo (2010) by Sabina Berman and La Mañana Debe Seguir Gris (1977) and El Amor Que Me Juraste (1998) by Silvia Molina. The theoretical framework used to analyze these novels is based on The Second Sex by Simone de Beauvoir and on the writings of the Mexican author Rosario Castellanos. These novels provide examples of how women can challenge patriarchal social norms in order to seek their identity as an individual and their self-realization. However, to do this, women must be willing to accept the risks and costs that may accompany this self-searching. By seeking identity women can satisfy their longings and desires, but at the same time this may also produce undesired results. Nevertheless, these novels show that women have the ability to seek their personal identity if they take the initiative to do so.

På sociala medier såsom Facebook, Twitter och Instagram kan både förlag och författare informera om kommande boksläpp, specialerbjudanden och signeringar, och genom att ha en närvaro i dessa medier gör de sig utöver detta tillgängliga och synliga för människorna som köper och läser deras böcker. Författaren har dessutom möjlighet att skapa en relation till sina läsare som sträcker sig bortom böckerna och eventuella intervjuer i traditionella medier. Genom sociala medier kan läsarna följa författaren när hon får sin första recension, går på releasefester och skriver på sitt nya alster. Som följare kan man kommentera bilderna, ibland kan man också skicka direktmeddelanden och eventuellt få ett svar tillbaka. Den här uppsatsen tittar närmare på hur en svensk författare idag – Sara Bergmark Elfgren – förhåller sig till sociala medier i allmänhet och till Instagram i synnerhet i relation till sitt författarskap. Undersökningen behandlar också hur några svenska förlag ser på Instagram som ett sätt att marknadsföra sig och skapa intresse för sin verksamhet genom en närvaro på Instagram. Uppsatsen behandlar även den litterära offentligheten och diskuterar hur den idag sträcker sig längre än till dagstidningarnas kulturdelar och recensioner på teve.
