Programa de Pós-graduação em Estudos da TraduçãoEsta dissertação consiste na tradução comentada do livro America A Prophecy (1793), do poeta inglês William Blake (1757-1827). O trabalho contextualiza America no conjunto da obra de Blake e apresenta um quadro de suas traduções publicadas no Brasil.

This dissertation consists of a translation with commentary of the book America A Prophecy (1793), by the English poet William Blake (1757-1827). It contextualizes America in the ensemble of Blake's work and presents a summary of the published translations of his work in Brazil. It also discusses some aspects of translation theory concerning poetical texts, which are then used in the study of the elements of America which are most important for the new translation - rhythm (accentual scheme, anaphora, rhythmic parallelism and assonance, rhythmic correspondence), alliterations, Blakean collocations, symbols, names of historical characters -, which is systematically confronted with a Portuguese version of the poem, by Manuel Portela

    Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão. Programa de Pós-graduação em Estudos da TraduçãoPartindo de uma análise do percurso da tradução das obras de William Blake no sistema literário brasileiro, esse trabalho discute uma proposta de tradução de Milton, uma das três maiores profecias do autor, como uma possibilidade de reescrita complementar às reescritas existentes do poeta inglês no Brasil. Fornecem dados para essa discussão a própria tradução de Milton e seu confronto com a tradução do mesmo livro realizada por Manuel Portela (Blake, 2009b). Na proposta de tradução apresentada neste trabalho, o ritmo, a pontuação, o uso de adjetivos, as repetições, as aliterações e consonâncias e os nomes próprios são identificados como algumas das características relevantes na totalidade do texto de Milton, e o estudo crítico sobre a obra e seu autor é considerado fundamental para determinar tanto as escolhas de tradução em nível textual como o perfil geral da reescrit

It was criticised at the time for having unrealistic, intangible aims and for not providing the necessary funding. New Labour’s strategies introduced increasingly specific targets and massively expanded the funding of treatment. This new Coalition strategy has no targets and provides no new funding
