This senior thesis presents the challenges of translating a Brazilian children’s book into English, and then having both languages transcribed into Braille with a view to publishing an inclusive, supplemental teaching material to be used in the language learning process of both visually impaired children and seeing children. More specifically, it addresses and analyzes a proposal of intralingual, interlingual, inter-semiotic and intra-semiotic translation (JAKOBSON, 1959; ECO, 2007) of Nestrovski’s (2006) Portuguese-language book Cores das cores having visually impaired from birth as its main target audience and children in general as a secondary target audience. The book translation is a challenge because it contains both actual and invented colors which may be further interpreted or have its meaning broadened in view of the interaction between its linguistic content and image content. The proposal builds on both translation studies and inclusive education frameworks, and follows a series of procedures designed to achieve a translation that is potentially adequate to the intended reader. The final translation is the result of an initial version that has been changed after a series of interactions of the translator with her supervisor and with a group of seeing adults and another group of visually impaired adults. The steps herein described reveal the potential of such endeavor and its contributions to understanding translation as a phenomenon that goes beyond “mere” language content. They also imply the translator should leave its workbench for a moment and interact with people in order to translate a material of which s/he initially believes to have little domain and deliver a product with which s/he wishes to effectively captivate the target audience.
