Abstract
Since the late nineteenth century, the translation of foreign literature into Catalan has been an important part of Catalan culture. From the Transition onwards, this practice has taken on a wider function as it has become a part of institutionalized attempts to promote the Catalan language and culture both within Catalonia and Europe. This article uses current theories of how translation functions within a culture in order to deal with three issues which have arisen from this situation: the motivation and mechanisms behind translation into Catalan; quality as a factor in translation; and the implications of Catalan attempts to promote translation of Catalan literature into other languages.
