Abstract
The article lists French translations staged in Paris in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. From the different versions and the literature of their reception the article defines the typology of the new versions in order to determine the choices made in the process of translation. It describes the analysis of the language used in the translation which is still used today, and some instances appeared on the surtitles.
