ترجمة الرموز الثقافية العربية في"ثلاثية القاهرة" لنجيب محفوظ إلى الفرنسية: دراسة وفق إستراتيجية التغريب

Abstract EN

This paper deals with translation of oriental cultural markers that do not have equivalents in the target European culture.

the purpose of the study is to explore the choice of translation strategies between foreignization and domestication when rendering cultural markers into european culture.

they are drawn from Naguib Mahfouz Arabic novel “Thulathiyat al-Qahira” (Cairo trilogy) translated into French.

the study also aims to show the importance of using foreignization to maintain the identity of the source text.

then, the analysis of religious and popular cultural terms within the corpus reveals the efficiency of foreignization on translation quality, its faithfulness and reception.

so, the study shows that foreignization, in many cases, is the most appropriate method used in translating cultural markers as it supplies details and information about them.

moreover, it allows opening up to other cultures, primary reason for translating literature.
