Descrizione Commenti dei lettori

In times of aesthetic and cultural convergence, in the countries of origin, and especially in the USA, more and more serials are accompanied by ancillary texts (short films, novels, summaries, videogames), enriching and ‘decorating’ the hypothetical world staged by serials. The essay analyzes the strategies and tactics used by the Italian television networks (or by more or less organized fan groups) to translate or adapt also in Italy this rich quantity of para-texts. Analyzing the serial Lost in its details and declinations, the work tries to outline a double typology. First it goes back over the TV film extensions according to their function: from the instruments helping to orientate in the serial world, to the narration continuation in other media, and to the forms allowing playing with settings and personages. Secondly, it assesses the translation options chosen (and hypothetical) for each paratext: from the realization of an Italian edition, to the translation choices of the organized fandom; from the impossibility to translate effectively to the re-creation of similar texts, customized for the Italian audience. The Italian experience of the text – or better, of the texts composing the story and the hypothetical world – will be inevitably different from the ‘original’ one.
