Title: Contextual Mismatches in the Translation into Spanish of Ernest Hemingway s The Sun Also Rises
Author/Creator: José Gabriel Rodríguez Pazos
Publication Details: Hermēneus: Revista de Traducción e Interpretación, Vol.4, pp.161-179
Annotation: Draws on communication theory in his analysis of Joaquin Adsuar s 1983 translation. Points to examples of mismatches where the translator s observation of external reference is incorrect, his understanding of the language is inadequate, or where a betrayal of Hemingway s style muddies the textual implications. Concludes that the greatest mistranslation is the translator s failure to discern Jake Barnes s impotency.
