APENAS A MINHA HISTÓRIA: UM RELATO AUTOETNOGRÁFICO DO PROCESSO DE EDITORAÇÃO E TRADUÇÃO DA OBRA JUST SO STORIES DE RUDYARD KIPLING

Abstract

This research is an autoethnography aimed at describing and analyzing the process of creating the book Apenas Histórias, a commented translation of Rudyard Kipling's Just So Stories, spearheaded by students from the undergraduate program in Translation Studies at the Federal University of Paraíba. As a student of the program who also acted as translator and editor, I explore my personal and professional experience throughout the translation, editing, and publication journey. This study explores the underlying aspects of the translation process that led to the publication of the work, highlighting its beginning, the challenges faced, the collaboration among translators, the applied learning, and the further development of the translation skills of those involved. The accounts provided here can be used as a source of research and information for those interested in the fields of Translation Studies.
