This paper aims at discussing how it is possible to devise a translation ethics that allows for the analysis and description of the problem of translation fidelity within a theoretical framework that surpasses the traditional antinomy between free and literal translation. First, a historical review is made of fidelity as a locus communis present in some classical authors in translation studies. Then the two major trends in modern translation theory (linguistic and cultural/ literary) are described. In the linguistic approach the concept of equivalence is discussed as a correlation of translation fidelity and in the cultural approach several socio-cultural theories are reviewed. |
