Resumo

A lo largo de la última década, se observó un incremento de la representación audiovisual de las comunidades latinas en Estados Unidos. Más recientemente, una cantidad sin precedentes de espanglish —o bilingüismo radical español-inglés— se ha convertido en elemento importante de dicha representación. Dado el giro transnacional del mercadeo y la distribución de plataformas audiovisuales, como Netflix, gran parte de ese contenido se ha doblado y subtitulado para audiencias hispanohablantes. En ese contexto, este artículo atiende un triple objetivo. Primero, posiciona el espanglish como una práctica translingüística de la comunidad queer que puede atente a fines muy claros en los textos. Esto rompe con la academia existente en traducción que ha tendido a ver el espanglish como una especie de habla con acento notorio que en su mayor parte da color al personaje. Segundo, es el primer estudio longitudinal que considera la forma como se han traducido al español las fuentes audiovisuales en espanglish. Los estudios de caso analizados en el presente artículo incluyen la película Coco, de Disney/Pixar, las comedias One Day at a Time y Gentefied, de Netflix, y el drama Vida, de Starz. Para terminar, el artículo busca ampliar el texto de Démont “On three modes of translating queer literary texts” (Sobre tres maneras de traducir textos literarios queer, publicado en 2018), indicando que sus “maneras” pueden ayudarnos a entender las prácticas traductivas que afectan a una variedad de comunidades minorizadas.

Biografia do Autor

Remy Attig, Universidad Estatal de Bowling Green, Ohio

Professor assistente de Estudos de Tradução e Espanhol na Bowling Green State University. Ele cresceu falando espanhol e inglês e viveu por mais de uma década em contextos bilíngües francês-inglês no Canadá. Esta experiência de vida informa seu interesse na forma como as identidades bilíngües e multilíngües são navegadas e expressas e como são (mal)compreendidas pelos monolíngües. Sua pesquisa se concentra na produção cultural do espanhol, do judaico-espanhol e do português, assim como nas comunidades queer em todo o mundo anglófono e hispanófono e na tradução dessas identidades para as sociedades maiores em que os falantes vivem.

Remy se inspira em teorias pós-coloniais e queer em estudos de tradução, sociolingüística e estudos culturais para explorar ativistas e movimentos de justiça social nessas comunidades. Seu trabalho é descritivo, teórico e criativo por natureza
