Genre et discours métaphoriques sur la traduction by Lori Chamberlain

“…By removing the seductive mask of stylistic beauty from the texts by translation scholars such as Steiner or Gavronsky, she reminds us that any sexist and hierarchical vision of creativity (creation vs. re-creation) is not simply problematic from a symbolic point of view, but that it underlies a struggle for authorship of texts that has material repercussions in terms of academic and salary recognition, or copyrights.
