  • Anàlisi I Proposta De L'argot Queer Del Xou Rupaul's Drag Race
    TRABAJO DE FINAL DE GRADO EN TRADUCCIÓN E INTERPRETACIÓN TREBALL DE FI DE GRAU EN TRADUCCIÓ I INTERPRETACIÓ Departament de Traducció i Comunicació TÍTULO / TÍTOL ANÀLISI I PROPOSTA DE L’ARGOT QUEER DEL XOU RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE: EL CAS DE LA SUBTITULACIÓ Autor/a: Marc Martínez Herrero Tutor/a: Josep Roderic Guzmán Pitarch Fecha de lectura/ Data de lectura: juny de 2018 Resumen/ Resum: (aprox. 300 palabras / paraules) En aquest treball es pretén, en primer lloc, analitzar l’argot queer del xou d’impacte RuPaul’s Drag Race i la subtitulació d’aquest al castellà i, llavors, donar una proposta de traducció en català. Cal tenir en compte d’entrada el rerefons d’aquest argot emprat en el xou, el qual pertany al col·lectiu LGBTI+, i la transcendència que hi ha tingut. Ja que es tracta d’una temàtica amb temes reivindicatius i d’autocrítica, l’humor n’és una part fonamental; i si tenim en compte els referents culturals populars de la cultura estatunidenca, ens adonarem al llarg del treball que tots aquests trets fan de la subtitulació del xou una tasca bastant difícil d’aconseguir. Per tant, després de fer un repàs de la subtitulació i de les característiques que la diferencien, classificarem els referents culturals segons la taxonomia de Vandeweghe (2005) explicada per Díaz-Cintas & Remael (2007) i parlarem de les estratègies que s’han emprat en la traducció de l’argot al castellà segons la taxonomia de Pedersen (2005). A més, tractarem d’explicar els tipus d’acudits que trobarem en l‘anàlisi seguint la classificació de l’autor Zabalbeascoa (1996) juntament amb les aportacions de Martínez Sierra (2008).
