REVISITING THE POLYSYSTEM THEORY IN TRANSLATING LITERATURE FOR CHILDREN

Cristina Chifane

Abstract :

Out of the multitude of translation theories, some are more likely to be applied to children’s literature translation especially under the present circumstances which oscillate between globalizing and anti–globalizing approaches to translation. The international success of contemporary series for teenagers and the modern phenomenon of crossover fiction have started to operate changes at the level of children’s literature status in the sense that it is no longer placed at the periphery of the mainstream adult system and consequently its translation has witnessed an unprecedented growth both quantitatively and qualitatively. This paper aims at viewing literature for children in the light of the polysystemtheory from the point of view of its impact and topicality in the current translation process.
