Resumen en inglés

The article starts from the hypothesis that the act of literary self-translation can constitute, in a diglossic context, a betrayal, not of the original text, nor a fortiori of the author, but of the minority language used in the original text and its cultural context in the broad sense. Having theorized this, Ur Apalategui traces, in a second step, a short history of literary self- translation in the Basque Country. Then he turns to the particular case of Iban Zaldua, an author with assumed bilingualism who sometimes writes different works in his two mother tongues (Basque and Spanish), sometimes uses self-translation from Basque into Spanish. Finally, he studies the sociological and systemic reasons why Iban Zaldua’s self-translation is not received by the Basque readership as a betrayal.< Leer menos
