Un'analisi del Women's Language nei sottotitoli e nei doppiaggi giapponesi di Catherine Earnshaw nei lungometraggi di William Wyler e Mary Soan-Peter Kosminsky

In the several Japanese versions of William Wyler’s feature film, Catherine Earnshaw is often presented in translation through a linguistic identity that indexes a series of stereotypes around which the style of Japanese women’s language has crystallized. On the basis of four Japanese versions of Wuthering Heights and starting from contemporary sociolinguistics studies, I will try to highlight how Japanese subtitling and dubbing have contributed – thanks to the mediation of foreign bodies – to converge towards the strategy of adaptation with the aim of consolidating gender discrimination which is still difficult to eradicate in contemporary Japanese society.
