La contribución de la Semiótica a la traducción interlingü\'ıstica
Tonos Digital, (2008)
Abstract
Semiotics can give a great contribution to translation theories and practices, even if, as Gorlée said, semiotics and translation theory have until recently virtually ignored each other s existence (1994: 10). This article however didn t resume semiotics contributions to translation studies. Rather I tried to epitomize and match only some of those that are the greatest contributions in this field. In fact, Fabbri s, Eco s and particularly Peirce s approaches try to say us that translation is not saying the same thing . So, if translation is never the original, semiotics particularly Peirce s semiotics helps us to consider that Babel is not a loss but a resource , and that in translating it is not important what is lost, but what is changing languages and cultures.
