Abstract

Professional translation in Spain is an increasingly feminized sector. Nevertheless, this situation of the labour market is not producing a greater visibility of women translators. Employing Pierre Bourdieu’s sociological framework, this paper analyzes a set of data –reviews of literary translations and national awards to translation- and reflections (interviews with women translators) in order to consider social and professional causes for this lack of visibility and acknowledgement
