Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

me propose d'examiner dans le present article de quelle maniere l'ecrivain Jean Simard (1916-2005) a pratique l'art de la traduction, plus particulierement dans la version francaise de The Watch That Ends the Night de Hugh MacLennan qu'il a fait paraitre en 1967 a Montreal chez HMH. Hugh MacLennan est alors un ecrivain canadien-anglais de renom, auteur de Two Solitudes (1945), roman qui lui vaut premier prix du Gouverneur general (il en remportera un nombre impressionnant de cinq au fil de sa carriere litteraire). Two Solitudes ne sera traduit en francais qu'en 1963, comme pour donner raison, en quelque sorte, a ce qu'en est venue a signifier cette expression des deux solitudes, c'est-a-dire la presence malaisee, cote a cote, des deux principaux groupes linguistiques et culturels du Canada — anglophones et francophones —, et la relation distante, souvent faite d'ignorance, de mefiance et d'incomprehension qu'entretiennent ces deux groupes. Ne en Nouvelle-Ecosse, MacLennan (1907-90) arrive a Montreal dans les annees 1930, entre d'autres raisons, pour enseigner au Lower Canada College. Il publie premier roman, Barometer Rising, en 1941, qui deviendra en francais, dans la traduction de Jean Simard, Le temps tournera au beau (1966). Quant a The Watch That Ends the Night, c'est un roman important qui parait en 1959 et que plusieurs considerent comme son plus beau livre. C'est l'avis en tout cas, de traducteur, tel qu'il l'affirme a Gilles Marcotte dans une interview radiophonique diffusee sur Radio-Canada a l'emission Des livres et des hommes, le 3 octobre 1967.1 Je traduis des livres qui me plaisent, y explique Simard. C'est la seule et unique raison. Dans ce roman qui se deroule a Montreal au debut des annees cinquante, il est souvent question de l'epoque de l'entre-deux-guerres. Comme l'explique Simard dans cette interview:

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
