Intralingual Translation of British Novels A Multimodal Stylistic Perspective
Linda Pillière, Aix-Marseille University, France This book explores the various ways that British novels, from children’s fiction to travelogues and Book Prize winners, have been adapted and rewritten to be more culturally acceptable and accessible for the US market. From paratextual differences in cover, illustrations, typeface and footnotes to dialectal changes to lexis, tense, syntax and punctuation, Linda Pillière reveals the sociocultural and ideological pressures involved in intralingual translation and shows how the stylistic effects of such changes – including loss of meaning, voice, rhythm and word play – often result in a more muted American edition.
