In terms of theatre, translation involves not only linguistic transfers on the level of discourse signification, but also a transfer of functions in relation to other signs of theatre action. Theatre translation as a component of a whole dramatic process has to consider among other criteria the author’s (playwright) basic position which leads the speech action to the stage. In this context, the V. Novarina and D. Dimitriadis’ approaches present opposite points of view, with different cultural references, corresponding to a contemporary theatrical discourse which could contribute to an important extent, to the translator’s work.
