This article approaches Pierre Bourdieu’ sociology and his contributions to Translation Studies. We will look at some theoretical notions developed by Bourdieu in his sociology of knowledge as well as at his social theory regarding the researcher’s reflexivity towards himself and his object. Then we will put these notions to test in a specific research about translation developed by the Canadian traductologist Jean-Marc Goaunvic, who analyses the reception of science-fiction in postwar France.
