Poetica traducerilor lui Eugène Ionesco în limba română: norme și normativism în viziune coșeriană [Articol]

Abstract

The concrete reality of language is the linguistic act, i.e. the act of updating for communication one or more signs of articulated language: a word or phrase actually said are linguistic acts. Therefore, language is the set of common linguistic acts of a community of speaking individuals. The work of the great Eugène Ionesco, writer, protagonist of the theater of the absurd and member of the French Academy has been the subject of dozens of books and hundreds of studies, doctoral theses, international colloquia, symposia and festivals. Therefore, the author will make his characters speak and act as if they are free; they will have to think, to feel, to act first, to express their thoughts, feelings, plans, then, in other words, as in everyday life, the existence of their psyche will precede the phenomenon of its expression. In linguistic terms, the signified will precede the signifier. In Ionesco’s world the signifier precedes the signified.
