De Consuelo Berges a Mauro Armiño: un corpus de las mejores traducciones del francés

Abstract

From a corpus of translations from the French awarded with the Spanish National Prize of Translation (1956-2010), some aspects referring to the history and socio­logy of translation are analyzed, especially the following aspects: issues related to the professional activity of translators, the visibility of the prizes and their degree of acceptance, the status and evolution of the French Language, the translators’ work recognition from their experience, the most likely genres to be awarded, timing differences between original works and translations, and the degree of survival and canonicity of the translations.
