Abstract

The role of the translator can in many cases be determinant to and have consequences in the literary fame of a certain work. Literary theory and comparative literature try to analyse and systematise these, emphasizing the importance of the study of the relevance of translation for a literary system. This article deals with the balances and imbalances that take place in a cultural and literary context, caused by decisions that justify the need for a certain translation, by analysing the relations between the Scandinavian and Catalan fields.
