IN MY OWN WORDS. Translating As A Feminist
by Noémie Grunenwald
Description
In My Own Words (Sur les bouts de la langue) is a narrative essay in which translator Noémie Grunenwald, through her own experience, explores feminist issues in the act of translation. Combining theoretical reflection and personal narrative she questions the dominant conceptions of translation and demonstrates that engagement in translation, far from bringing an additional bias, allows her to work better. In this essay, she describes translation as a collective process which helps reveal genders’ blind spots in the French language and directly act on it as well as on the world around it.
