Resumen

El presente artículo pretende explorar cómo se expresa en inglés y traduce al español la identidad en textos del sitio web del National Museum of Ireland. Mediante la compilación de un corpus paralelo (inglés-español), se comprueba que el uso de adjetivos como marcadores de la actitud y el recurso a la voz pasiva influyen en cómo se expresa la identidad. En cuanto a las traducciones al español, no se detectan ni omisiones ni adiciones relevantes, y las traducciones se asemejan a los textos en inglés con respecto a la cantidad de información e implicaturas. Como consecuencia de esto, gran parte de los lectores hispanohablantes podrían no comprender todo el contenido de los textos, debido a que solo se explican parcialmente algunos hechos políticos e históricos.
