Resumo: This paper aims at discussing how translation was present in the work of the Kenyan author Ngugi wa Thiong’o, above all concerning the very formation of his literary output and his linguistic choice. Using theories from the Translation Studies, as the ones coined by Lawrence Venuti, for instance, I could compare and point out similarities between these theories and some choices from Ngugi. I noted that several options made by Ngugi concerning his literary output are also found in the Translation field.

Lançando mão de algumas teorias oriundas dos Estudos da Tradução, como as cunhadas por Lawrence Venuti, por exemplo, pude comparar e apontar similaridades entre essas teorias e algumas escolhas do referido autor. Constatei que diversas opções feitas por Ngugi e sua produção literária são também encontradas no âmbito da tradução.Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora2015-08-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/ronai/article/view/23078Rónai – Revista de Estudos Clássicos e Tradutórios; Vol. 1 No. 2 (2013); 119-130Rónai – Revista de Estudos Clássicos e Tradutórios; v. 1 n. 2 (2013); 119-1302318-3446reponame:Rónaiinstname:Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)instacron:UFJFporhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/ronai/article/view/23078/12752Copyright (c) 2015 Rónai – Revista de Estudos Clássicos e Tradutórioshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessHorácio Lott, Tiago2020-03-04T04:23:32Zoai:periodicos.ufjf.br:article/23078Revistahttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/ronaiPUBhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/ronai/oairevistaronai@gmail.comhttps://doi.org/10.34019/2318-34462318-34462318-3446opendoar:2024-05-03T12:00:53.201726Rónai - Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)true
