Abstract
Roman Jakobson’s tripartite typology of translation is accepted by many translation scholars as a broad definition of translation and is frequently included in the beginning of textbooks introducing Translation Studies. However, when it comes to the research carried out within Translation Studies, focus is overwhelmingly set on interlingual translation, or translation proper. A few scholars explicitly argue against the inclusion of intralingual and intersemiotic translation in a definition of translation whereas some provide arguments or discussions of concepts central to Translation Studies which explain the marginal status of intralingual and intersemiotic translation. The aim of this article is to review these arguments and to discuss the place of intralingual translation within Translation Studies. On this basis, the article suggests a criterial definition of translation to be used for scientific purposes within the field of Translation Studies, a definition which fully includes intralingual translation.
Keywords:
- intralingual translation,
- translation typology,
- folk definition,
- scientific definition,

Résumé
La typologie tripartite de la traduction établie par Roman Jakobson est largement acceptée par les traductologues comme définition large de la traduction et est fréquemment incluse dans l’introduction des manuels de traductologie. Or, dès lors qu’il s’agit de recherche traductologique, l’accent est essentiellement mis sur la traduction interlinguale ou traduction proprement dite. Quelques auteurs rejettent explicitement l’inclusion de la traduction intralinguale et intersémiotique dans leur définition de la traduction, tandis que d’autres introduisent dans le débat des arguments ou des discussions de concepts traductologiques centraux, qui expliquent le statut marginal de la traduction intralinguale et intersémiotique. Cet article a pour but de passer en revue ces arguments, et de discuter la place qu’occupe la traduction intralinguale en traductologie. Sur cette base, l’article propose une définition multicritère de la traduction à utiliser à des fins scientifiques en traductologie, une définition qui intègre parfaitement la traduction intralinguale.
