Perfomer "La Valise" : enjeux méthodologiques

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Picture book narratives are, by definition, a hybrid form, known as iconotext, with an inherent interaction between image and writing. The relationship between text and image in picture books seems to favor a poetic space that proves fruitful for theatrical performance and creation, coming close to how theatrical texts work. In an experimental approach, my research articulates the composition of picture books and their performance on stage, regarding the transposition from one medium to another as a translation process. More precisely, I have been working with The Suitcase by Chris Naylor-Ballesteros, through creative workshops with children aged 7 to 10 and carried out in the program of the La Commune - CDN d'Aubervilliers theater (France). Exploring strategies for transposing iconotext to the stage, from and through the children's interpretive gaze, I seek to explore points of contact between intersemiotic translation and theatrical semiology from the perspective of Adaptation Theory. In this paper, I focus on some of the methodological challenges of my doctoral research in Translation Studies, concerning processes of re-textualization and intermedial creation.
