THE PARATEXT OF RELOCATION NARRATIVES ACROSS LANGUAGES – Nicoleta-Loredana Moroşan

When applying G. Genette’s transtextuality theory to the reception of the translation of relocation
narratives it becomes readily apparent that the latter can be highly prompted by the treatment of the paratextual elements across the languages concerned by the act of translation. The overarching aim of this paper is to examine how a salient part of the authorial peritext, composed of the title and the subtitle, and an equally important part of the public epitext, namely the blurb(s) on the sites of the publishing houses or on the book-selling sites promoting the books in question, are meant to contribute to the advertising of this travel literature subgenre in both the narrator’s mother tongue and culture amidst which he grew up and shaped his identity and in the foreign language of his host culture in which he chose to immerse himself, as well as in other foreign languages.
