La traducción de textos fragmentarios: un desafío para la labor filológica. Algunas reflexiones para las Sátiras de Luci-lio
Keywords:
Satires, Lucilius, Translation, Critical editionAbstract
Lucilius’ most authorized edition (Marx 1904-1905) consists of two volumes with wise commentaries in Latin by the editor, fundamental for the interpretation of the fragments and the complex task of reconstructing their literary context, as well as the socio-cultural and political background surrounding them. It is no surprising fact that Marx’s edition lacks the least hint of translation, as if the challenge of translating Lucilius’ text to a modernlanguage was not worthy of the effort of rearranging the satires, and of making its reading perpetuous, since this is the philological usual practice.
Rethinking translation as the most challenging work for the scholar, this paper will explore some of the problems –and obliged solutions?- to be faced in trying to provide Lucilius’ fragments with a Spanish version, focusing on some verses from the second book of the Satires.
