Abstract:

<i>Intralingual Translation: Beyond language and text</i> offers an
innovative, wide-ranging exploration of translation within the same
language, bringing together leading international scholars from
diverse linguistic and disciplinary backgrounds. Spanning theoretical
reflections, empirical studies, and historical analyses, the volume
addresses the rich spectrum of intralingual practices, from plain
language and accessibility adaptations to diachronic rewritings of
historical texts. The first section investigates various aspects of
the “Intralingual Sphere” and its connections to other modes of
translation. The second part explores the rapidly developing field of
accessibility and simplification, including Easy Language, plain
language, and graded readers. The book concludes with in-depth studies
of diachronic translation across different historical layers of the
French, Italian and Latin languages. Originating in an international
workshop, these contributions highlight intralingual translation as a
multi-faceted and socially situated activity, offering new insights
into its theoretical boundaries, practical challenges, and cultural
significance.
