Throughout studies of the translation theory (Octavio Paz, Rosimary Arrojo, Haroldo de Campos, among others) and experimenting with the translation act, the object of study is the work of José Monegal, a Uruguayan writer who, in the middle of the 20th century, published short stories in literary sections of newspapers of Melo and Montevideo, many of them today reunited in different editions. With characters set in the Pampas landscape, Monegal develops a gauchesque literature that opposes the mythical and heroic tradition, since it works with the humor and the grotesque, characterizing a gaucho figure trickster. In their texts, there is a language composed of regionalisms and oral or oral marks, requiring, in the translation into the Portuguese language, recreations that accentuate border marks, since this is another aspect present in their narratives. These are issues that are addressed in the research project "Frontiers of literary translation" developed together with scholarship students at the Universidade Federal do Pampa.
