- Title
Transediting Identity across Languages: Euronews coverage of Catalan Independence Aspirations.
- Authors
Ponomarenko, Lesia; Guinot, Laura Santamaria
- Abstract
Our objective in this paper is to compare how lexical units created in Catalan discourse, and related to the aspirations of independence, are reproduced by Euronews in Spanish, English, German and French and how their function as linguistic tools of discursive identity construction changes after translation (transediting). Based on the discourse-historical approach (Wodak et al., 2005), we could detect three main strategies of discursive identity construction (autonomisation, legitimation, and unification) in the 37 selected articles between 2015-2021. Certain adaptations are often inevitable to comply with the media format and journalistic register of a particular target culture.
