    MONOGRÁFICO Estudios de Traducción ISSN: 2174-047X https://dx.doi.org/10.5209/estr.71489 American Comics and Italian Cultural Identity in 1968: Translation Challenges in a Syncretic Text Laura Chiara Spinelli1 Recibido: 11 de septiembre de 2020 / Aceptado: 27 de octubre de 2020 Abstract. Translation supports the construction of a national identity through the selection of foreign texts to be transferred to the target language. Within this framework, the effort made in the 1960s by Italian editors and translators in giving new dignity to comics proves emblematic. This paper aims to reconstruct the reception of American comic strips in Italy going through the issues of Linus published in 1967 and 1968: the selected cartoonists (e.g. Al Capp, Jules Feiffer, and Walt Kelly) participate in the cultural debate of the time discussing politics, war, and civil rights. The analysis of the translation strategies adopted will reveal the difficulty of reproducing the polysemy of metaphors, idioms and puns, trying to maintain consistency between the visual and the verbal code, but primarily the need to create a purely Italian cultural discourse. Keywords: comics; translation; culture; visual code. [es] Cómics americanos e identidad cultural italiana en 1968: dificultades de traducción en un texto sincrético Resumen. La traducción contribuye a crear la identidad cultural de un país, con la decisión de traducir o no un texto extranjero a la lengua meta. En este contexto es remarcable el intento de los editores y traductores italianos de los años sesenta de dar una nueva dignidad al cómic. Este artículo tiene como objetivo reconstruir la recepción de las tiras cómicas de prensa americanas en Italia, con particular atención a los años 1967 y 1968 de la revista Linus: los autores (Al Capp, Jules Feiffer, Walt Kelly) participaron en el debate cultural de la época discutiendo sobre política, guerra, y de derechos civiles.

She's not great at playing piano, sitting still, or figuring out how to say the right thing at the right time in real life. Libby was born with Turner Syndrome, and that makes some things hard. But she has lots of people who love her, and that makes her pretty lucky. When her big sister Nonny tells her she's pregnant, Libby is thrilled - but worried. Nonny and her husband are in a financial black hole, and Libby knows that babies aren't always born healthy. So she strikes a deal with the universe: She'll enter a contest with a project about Cecelia Payne, the first person to discover what stars are made of. If she wins the grand prize and gives all that money to Nonny's family, then the baby will be perfect. Does she have what it takesto care for the sister that has always cared for her? And what will it take for the universe to notice? From debut author Sarah Allen comes this pitch-perfect, heartwarming novel about growing up, finding yourself, and loving people with everything you're Farrar, Straus and Giroux made of.
