Kafka and Borges: A Case of Plagiarism in Translation
Abstract
By now, it is common knowledge among many Spanish literary translators that the translation of Franz Kafka’s Die Verwandlung signed by Jorge Luis Borges was an act of plagiarism. However, this translation has not been assessed (as to my knowledge). In this article, I will critique that translation using Lance Hewson's model of translation criticism, since the plagiarism itself has been proved by other scholars.
