LA CAPUTXETA FERÉSTEGA (1907–1934): NOU PINZELLADES

In the early stages of the literary system configuration, no translation norm (Toury 1980) has yet been settled. There has been no consolidated criteria about which original texts should be translated, nor on the most appropriate way to manage the linguistic material as well as the textual material. The first translations of children’s literature to catalan serve us as an example of this fact, which we illustrate with the case of the first translations and adaptations of Little Red Riding Hood. At the same time, it helps us to understand the importance of the standardizing role that modern cultural industries have gained in recent years.
