Résumé
This paper focuses on the translation of comics, a type of so-called “subordinate” translation that is typically subject to space and time constraints – respectively, the limited space available in each speech bubble and the need for written text to render actions effectively in a few words and to qualify a character, so as to allow the audience to understand his or her psychology. Specifically, the article examines the case of the Argentinean cartoonist Maitena Burundarena (an author known for her humorous production), observing the double transposition of her work (“Mujeres Alteradas 5”, 2001 and “Superadas 1”, 2002): from Rioplatense Spanish into Peninsular Spanish and into the interlingual Italian version. With regard to intralingual translation, we will reflect on the need to have a version adapted for an Iberian audience, also with reference to the humorous rendering of text and image and from a contrastive perspective. Focusing on interlingual translation into Italian, the difficulties that emerged during the translation process will be analysed, observing how the use of certain strategies sometimes leads to conflicts and losses in the final product that alter the scope of the humorous intent of the prototext. The affinity between Spanish and Italian, two cognate languages, hides many pitfalls in translation. In order to compensate for some of these linguistic and cultural losses, particularly related to culturally marked terms or colloquial expressions, alternative translation solutions will be proposed. While in some cases a literal translation will be suggested, more creative renderings will also be proposed, so as to more closely respect the author's intentions.
