Translation and Postnational Cartographies of Language in Twenty-First-Century Canadian Literatures Translation and Postnational Cartographies of Language in Twenty-First-Century Canadian Literatures by Arianne Des Rochers A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Comparative Literature University of Toronto © Copyright by Arianne Des Rochers 2021 ii Translation and Postnational Cartographies of Language in Twenty-First-Century Canadian Literatures Arianne Des Rochers Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Comparative Literature University of Toronto 2021 Abstract “Une opération de traduction ne peut être effectuée que s’il y a une frontière à franchir,” says Sherry Simon in Le trafic des langues. The border that translation is said to cross is, typically, linguistic: the dominant understanding and theorization of translation relies on the notion of linguistic difference and autonomy, whereby meaning is transferred from one bounded linguistic system to the other. This dissertation takes as its starting point the border between languages, recognizing that linguistic borders as we know them today are neither natural nor ontological, but the result of the sedimentation and naturalization of a specific kind of linguistic mapping along discriminatory (ethno)national and racial lines. Its premise is that the gesture of translation, rather than simply crossing a pre-existing linguistic border, constructs linguistic difference by drawing a border where there is not one in the first place. iii This dissertation thus problematizes the structural view of language that underlies the bulk of Western translation practice and theory by looking at the anticolonial, queer, and postnational linguistic cartographies that are drawn and imagined in contemporary literary works published in Canada between 2005 and 2020, and written by voices that are minoritized within Canada’s linguistic regime. These texts are written in what we are used to recognizing as several “languages,” “registers” or “dialects,” in other words they feature linguistic forms that overflow the containers of French and English, the two official, colonial languages of the Canadian state. I argue that this amounts to a refusal to be a good, monolingually intelligible national subject, and that translation must reenact that refusal. Consequently, these texts point to what I call a postlingual understanding of translation, which enables a move away from idealized, abstract, national languages and towards the specificity of linguistic practices, understood as fundamentally social, local and embodied. Framed as a series of relations, rather than as transposition from one linguistic system to another, translation becomes a decidedly localized practice that draws on the translator’s specific embodied and territorialized experience and on the subjective, deliberate and ethical relations she establishes in the process. iv Acknowledgments I thank the Government of Québec’s Fonds de recherche Société et culture for awarding me a Doctoral Research Scholarship and making this research possible. I want to thank my supervisor and committee members, Neil ten Kortenaar, Monica Heller and Smaro Kamboureli, who guided this project and my trajectory in more ways than they will ever know. I feel immensely lucky to have worked with a committee that was equally challenging and rigorous, and generous and caring. Special thanks to Aphrodite Gardner and Bao Nguyen, whose support and kindness helped me make it to the finish line. Thank you to my student colleagues at the Centre for Comp Lit, especially to my dear friends Amelia, Matt, Nat and Rob for brightening my stay in Toronto. I also thank Leanne Betasamosake Simpson and Joshua Whitehead for pushing me to challenge my understanding of translation, and everyone who’s accompanied me in the translation of their works, most notably Rodney Saint-Éloi. I am forever grateful to have had all these precious people accompany me throughout this journey. Enfin, un merci tout spécial à Vincent, Paco et Jackson, my boys, mon équilibre. v Table of Contents Acknowledgments .......................................................................................................................... iv Table of Contents ............................................................................................................................ v List of Figures ............................................................................................................................... vii Introduction ..................................................................................................................................... 1 0.1 Context, Corpus and Methodology ..................................................................................... 4 0.2 Outline of the Dissertation ................................................................................................ 13 Chapter One.

  • French in Québec: a Standard to Be Described and Uses to Be Prioritized
    The French Language in Québec: 400 Years of History and Life Part Four II – French a Shared Language Chapter 13 – Which Language for the Future? 52. French in Québec: A Standard to be Described and Uses to Be Prioritized PIERRE MARTEL and HÉLÈNE CAJOLET-LAGANIÈRE The Evolution of the Standard for Written and Spoken French in Québec For more than two centuries, Québécois have lived in a twofold linguistic insecurity. On the one hand, French was rendered a second-class language by English, which was widely dominant in a number of social spheres and, on the other, its status was undermined compared to the French of France, the one and only benchmark. The “ Joual dispute” of the 1960s and 1970s crystallized opinions around a simplistic alternative: either the language of Québécois was the French of France (most usually termed International French 1, chiefly in order to indicate no dependence on the mother country), in which case every effort would have to be made to conform to it on every point, or else theirs was the popular language of those who were little educated, that is, vernacular speech, stigmatized by the term “ Joual ,” which some associated with the very identity of the Québécois. This black and white representation of the state of our language was ideological and unrealistic. It was as if French was made up of only a “standard” level, the correct written usage, and as if Québec French had only one language level, the vernacular, and even the lax and vulgar language. The Charter of the French Language, promulgated in 1977, contained no provision aimed at defining “French in Québec,” the “standard” or the “quality of the language.” However, the 1 The French Language in Québec: 400 Years of History and Life Part Four II – French a Shared Language Chapter 13 – Which Language for the Future? Policy Statement that gave birth to the Charter drew attention to the necessity of having a quality language.

Batchelor Excerpt More information Brief introduction to the French language (with reference to the French of francophone countries) / Br`eve introduction a` la langue franc¸aise (avec r´ef´erence au franc¸ais des pays francophones) French is the official language of twenty-nine independent states and is spoken, to a greater or lesser extent, in fifty-one or fifty-two countries.1 Most recent calculations suggest that over 200 million use it as a first or second language. Although not as diffuse as English, but certainly more so than Spanish, since it enjoys currency on five continents and Spanish 1 Henriette Walter suggests fifty-two in Le franc¸ais d’ici, de l`a, de l`a-bas (1998, p. 135). The figure 1 beside a country indicates the authors’ serious reservations about any validity over claims for francophonie for this country. The figure 2 beside a country indicates that French is spoken by a percentage of the population, and this could vary from country to country, who use it as a mother tongue, or as a major second language: Albanie 1, Belgique, Belgique (communaut´e francophone), B´enin, Brunswick 1, Bulgarie 1, Burkina Faso, Burundi 2, Cambodge 1, Canada: Nouveau, Cap-Vert 1, Centrafrique, Comores, Congo, Congo (R´epublique d´emocratique = RDC), Coteˆ d’Ivoire, Djibouti, Dominique 1, Egypte´ 1, France, Gabon, Guin´ee, Guin´ee-Bissau 1, Guin´ee Equatoriale,´ Ha¨ıti, Laos 1, Liban 2, Luxembourg, Mac´edoine 1, Madagascar, Mali, Maroc 2, Maurice, Mauritanie, Moldavie 1, Niger, Pologne 1, Roumanie 1, Rwanda 2, Sainte-Lucie 2, Sao˜ Tom´eetPrincipe1,S´en´egal, Seychelles 2, Suisse 2, Tchad, Togo, Tunisie 2, Vanuatu, Viˆetnam, Za¨ıre.

  • Français Tirailleur Pidgin — a Corpus Study
    Français Tirailleur Pidgin —acorpusstudy Hedvig Skirgård Department of Linguistics, Stockholm Univeristy Thesis submitted for Master of Arts in Linguistics (30 HE credits) Spring 2013 Supervisor: Mikael Parkvall Examiner: Henrik Liljegren Expert reviewer: Bernhard Wälchli Abstract Swedish Français Tirailleur (FT) är ett pidginspråk som talades av västafrikanska sol- dater och deras vita officerare i den franska kolonialarmen cirka 1857-1954. Den här uppsatser beskriver denna språkvatietet utifrån ett korpus som består av de doku- menterade yttranden som hittills hittats. Studien visar bland annat att standard negation uttrycks med en pre-verbal partikel (pas ), ja/nej-frågor uttryckts främst genom intonation, genussystemet är inte produktivt, det finns ingen skillnad mellan subjekt och objekt i pronomensystemet och attributiv ägande uttrycks med possessiva pronomen, juxtaposition eller prepositioner. Den standardiserade type-token-ration är 26%, vidare forskning om ordförråd i pidginspråk och jämförelser med talat språk behövs. Det finns två former som är väldigt frekventa och som anses vara mycket karakteristiska för FT: ya och yena. Dessa former har tidigare beskrivits som stativa verb, relativmarkörer och finithetsmarkörer. De förekommer i majoriteten av alla dokument i korpuset. De fungerar som stativa verb, kopula eller kopulalika markörer, samt potentiellt även som predikatsmarkörer. Frågan om huruvida adjektiv är en relevant språklig kategori i denna pidgin diskuteras också i denna uppsats. Nyckelord: lingvistik, litet korpus, pidgin, tiraljör, andra världskriget, västafrika, senegal, petit nègre, moi-ya-dit, anonym manual 1916, Charles Mangin, Lucie Cous- turier, kolonialism English Français Tirailleur (FT) is a pidgin language that was spoken by West African soldiers and their white officers in the French colonial army approximately 1857-1954.
