Abstract:

Abstract The objective of this article is to present a discussion about the possibilities of translating into Spanish the book Reinações de Narizinho (1931) by Brazilian author Monteiro Lobato by comparing six different translations of some of the stories in this publication. For this study and the comparison, one translation made in Chile in 2020, one in Peru in 2019, two made in Colombia the same year, and two made in Argentina (1944 and 2010) were selected. We will provide some examples in order to illustrate the strategies we used during our process of translation for the Chilean edition, which aimed at taking the reader closer to the source culture. This analysis is focused on neologisms, structure, rhythm, and the culturemes found in the book.
